Lifestyle Businesses

Lifestyle Businesses is an online resource and ebook library for people setting up and running lifestyle businesses.

After adopting Lifestyle Businesses’ WordPress website from a local design agency, and moving to a more reliable cost-effective host, owners Simon and Linda prepared a list of changes they wanted to make to their site to improve usability, flexibility and compatibility.

Working with the integrated plugins, including file sale download management software Easy Digital Downloads, I fixed some design issues, added Ajax scrolling to the news section and created a tidier interface for the owners giving them more control over their WordPress website.

Why hire Jem for your WordPress project?

  • 5 5

    Jem has been unflinchingly helpful with every stage of the development of the Albion site, and has helped us keep it up to date and functioning effectively, solving problems as they have arisen. I am a techno-phobe, but Jem has been unfailingly supportive, helpful, always friendly and efficient. Also her rates seem really good value, but don’t tell her I said so.

    I loved working through the process of developing my website. I concentrated on the words and imagery while Jem did her magic with the technology. I get so many compliments about our website and it’s definitely helped our business to grow quicker than we could have imagined. Being a lot of a technophobe, Jem’s calm assurance is always very much appreciated. I’d really recommend her.

    We commissioned Jem to create a new school website. We wanted a website which was well ordered, accessible with a simple design and, most importantly, easy to update by various, non technical members of staff.

    Jem provided us with really useful design ideas which helped us give her an idea of what we wanted. Jem very quickly produced a new website, which looks very impressive. Jem then provided an excellent training session which enabled us to add our own pages and menus. Throughout the whole process Jem has been quick in answering our many questions and her suggestions have always been very helpful.

    We have found Jem to be extremely professional, helpful and supportive and we would thoroughly recommend Jem to any school looking for a new website.

Why I love working with WordPress

I've been using WordPress since the heady days of version 1.0 and developing WordPress websites commercially since version 1.5 (released in 2005!)
