WordPress Websites
If you and your team want a website where you can make updates yourselves, we recommend building your site using a content management system (CMS).
Using a CMS gives you the ability to make edits on the back end, without significant help from a web developer, so your website can stay up-to-date and continuously evolve along with your organization. The CMS that we recommend for a lot of businesses and organizations is WordPress, a free, open-source CMS known for its popularity and ease of use to all users, especially for less technical users and non-developers.
Webspec’s Relationship With WordPress
Our team has a longstanding history with over a decade of WordPress expertise, and we were one of the first Iowa agencies to adopt WordPress as a full CMS rather than just a blog platform. We’ve invested thousands of hours into training, development, and keeping up with its latest updates and features.
Giving You an Easily Editable and Scalable Website
When you partner with us for your website, you’ll have full access to the back end of your site after it’s launched. Webspec customizes the administrative interface of the website to be easy to use for non-technical users. You will have control over your website and will be able to make changes as they arise. We’re also able to set a variety of user levels so you can give users different permissions to access certain content types. With a WordPress solution, you and your team can easily make changes, add pages and photos, and customize anything you’d like. You will be able to edit the content, links, and photos on any page of your site and continue to build on it for years to come.
Working With WordPress Page Builders
Our team has experience with a number of WordPress page builders, including Gutenberg, Divi, and Avada. Webspec works with all of our clients to select the best WordPress framework for your goals, giving you an admin to fit your needs and budget. After one of our designers creates your custom look and layout, one of our developers will bring it to life and build out your pages in a way that sets you and your team up for success down the road as you update content or add pages.
Functionality Integrations
Our team has the ability to incorporate the functionality you need for your site through plugins, custom development, integrations, and links out to third-party tools. WordPress has a large global support community, so there are existing plugins for almost any desired function, including forms, event calendars, maps, and more. On top of plugin integrations, our team can also integrate with APIs for tools like CRMs, marketing automation, hiring apps, and more. With over a decade of experience in WordPress, we have the knowledge to both integrate with existing plugins and build custom features to give you the functionality you need to meet your goals.
WordPress Training for Your Team
With the launch of all of our WordPress sites, we include training sessions for anyone on your team that will use and make changes from the back end of the website. Whether or not your team is already familiar with how WordPress works, we’ll give you a run-down on the most important parts of your site so you feel confident in navigating it and making changes on your own.

We used WordPress to create an accessible website for IESBVI that met all 508 Compliance and WCAG 2.1 AA Standards. Now, all users are able to access the website and find the information they need.
