A successful website doesn’t just look great, it should be easy to maintain and flexible enough to grow as you do. I’ve been building websites since 1994. For the last two years, I’ve worked exclusively with the WordPress content management system (CMS). WordPress excels in simplicity and flexibility. If you can edit a Word document, you can edit your WordPress website.

Custom Website Design & Development
Whether you’re a new company in need of its first website, or you’ve already got a website that isn’t meeting your needs, a custom WordPress website will help take your online strategy to the next level. We’ll work with you to create a custom design or find a professional pre-designed theme to meet your needs. We’ll then build up to 10 pages of initial content, setup the built-in SEO features of WordPress and Genesis, and provide training on how to add, edit and manage content using the WordPress CMS.

Rialla can convert your existing site to WordPress so you can take advantage of all it’s user-friendly content management features. All of our conversion projects includes online training on how to use WordPress and access to our online training center which includes videos, downloadable guides, and more.

NEW! Rialla now provides all clients with free access to more than 20 online videos that offer step-by-step instructions for creating, managing, and editing site content.
Managed Website Hosting & Maintenance
When your web development firm and web host are the same entity, website updates are much smoother and more cost-effective. Rialla provides two options for hosting:
- Standard Hosting – The standard hosting option is similar to what you would buy from any hosting provider. The main difference is that you can be confident that your site is not on a server that is oversold by the provider AND that your server is fully compatible with your WordPress website.
- Managed Hosting – Managed hosting takes the standard hosting option one step further. With the managed hosting option, Rialla will maintain the “backend” of your server and website for you. This includes monitoring your site/server activity and adjusting as needed, providing routine off-site backups, and updating WordPress and MySQL when new updates are available. This last part is the most valuable. For less than an hour of our hourly rate, your site is kept current at all times.
Website Audits
Not sure if you need a new site or even where to start? Rialla can conduct an audit of your site and provide a detailed report on your website’s design, content, SEO and social media effectiveness.
