In the month of March, we are focusing on adding special functionality to your website via Premium Plugins. When using WordPress, there are thousands of plugins (kind of like apps) that can be installed into your website to give you functionality like shopping carts, online forms, and event registration.
Website Builder vs Custom Design
With OCC’s WP-EZ Website Builder, we make building your own website very simple. We take care of all the heavy lifting: Installing WordPress, researching & installing all the plugins, and installing the theme (design) that you select for your website. However, because this is an automated website builder, there are some limitations to what plugins we can install. This is true of all website builders including those provided by SquareSpace, GoDaddy, Wix, etc.
With our Custom Website Design packages, we have a lot more flexibility to install even more functionality to your site. In fact, that is where most of the plugins that we used for WP-EZ came from: We first made them available in our Custom Website Packages long before making them available to our do-it-yourself websites.
We do the research, updates, and support for you!
As I mentioned above, there are thousands of plugins available to add functionality to your website. However, just because they are available, it doesn’t mean that they all should be used. There are many plugins that are poorly developed, not supported, don’t work with other plugins, or not updated regularly. So before we install a plugin into your website, OurChurch.Com researches all of this to make sure a plugin is the best option for your website.
Also, with our Full Service WordPress Support, we do monthly updates for all the plugins on your website. Lastly, if there is a plugin that is causing an issue, as part of our Full Service Support, we research the issue and fix the problem. This saves you hours of your time and hundreds of dollars of potential expenses.
We have looked and found no other company (Christian or secular), that provides this level of support and commitment to it’s customers. That is because:
At OCC, we truly want you to succeed and Live Out Your Mission Online!
