I’ve written about WordPress for over a year now for Torque, but I’ve never built my own site. In fact, I would consider myself a beginner when it comes to creating something using the CMS.

I’m going to tell you something that may be frowned upon in certain circles. I’ve recommended Squarespace. It’s true! And it might be shocking, seeing how long I’ve used and championed WordPress. But the truth of the matter is Squarespace has a market cornered. It’s a great option for the people who want to make something quickly themselves, in a controlled environment, for very little money. That is a reasonable option, but the fact of the matter is, that site won’t grow with you, scale, or look as beautiful on mobile. Every business should have an Internet presence and if […]
