What Is WordPress?

WordPress is a user friendly content management system for websites and blogs. Users can easily add and update text, images, video, audio and more using the WordPress platform. And with the right theme, no knowledge of web programming is required. Updating a WordPress based website can be as simple as changing a profile in Facebook, or creating a document in Microsoft Word. To sum it up in their own words:

WordPress is a state-of-the-art publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time.

If you’re still not convinced, we have written an article outlining several reasons we believe WordPress is a wise investment and the future of the web. Read the article here.

What Is A WordPress Theme?

A WordPress theme is a template for the WordPress platform. Think of it this way, WordPress is the skeleton, and a theme is the skin. We design and develop themes for a variety of clients and needs. WordPress is not just a blogging tool. With the proper theme, WordPress is an entire website solution.

What Makes Organic Themes Better Than Other WordPress Themes?

We create premium WordPress themes that are professionally designed and developed with additional options not found in many themes, making it easier for users to manage their content. Our themes are created for business solutions, and offer much more than a simple blog. In addition, Organic Themes are developed for ease of customization, and we offer extremely helpful support within our active forum community.

This Is Great! How Do I Get Started?

First and foremost, you must secure a website domain, hosting and the WordPress platform installed on your server — a service that we offer. With the previous steps completed, install and activate your purchased theme within WordPress and begin adding your content. We have provided installation instructions here.

WordPress.org vs. WordPress.com

Our themes are created for individual installations of the open source WordPress platform from wordpress.org. A website using the WordPress platform from wordpress.org is a professional content managed website giving you full control over the themes, features, code and hosting environment. In comparison, wordpress.com is a blogging community offering a limited amount of themes and options within a restricted environment. Unfortunately, our themes are not compatible with the wordpress.com blog community at this time. If you would like to use our themes, you will need to purchase hosting, a domain, and have the WordPress platform installed. This is a service we can offer via our Kahuna Host services if you are interested.
