Adds the capacity to edit your content from the front end of your Wordpress blog using the styling of your blog.

The main advantages over editing this way over the traditional method is that you can see your content exactly how it will appear using all the styles and formatting of your Wordpress template, plus it’s far more convenient this way.

As businessxpand grew, our plugins and themes were overtaking the place - so we decided to separate them off into their own site so they could take over the world!

So why don’t you pop over to wpxpand and check it out. We have some excellent new plugins - add twitter usernames to your comments | manage your banners - and various themes like Twieme, a funky twitter based theme

So you have an amazing website, new logo, branding and a new lease of life in your business…then you hand over a rubbish business card to a prospective client. The last thing you need is to be embarrassed by your offline promotional material.

Contact us and we can discuss your print requirements. Business cards, letterheads and compliment slips are just the beginning. You may also require forms, leaflets, booklets, brochures, posters or stickers - you may also like to contain everything in a folder so you can send nice little professional packs to your clients.

We can really make your designs stand out from the norm using special cuts, colours or varnishes.

Prices vary depending on the work involved and the amount of printed material required - so please contact us for a tailored quote.

Sometimes you need help on your website fast, but business gets in the way. Say you’ve just discovered that an important page on your site is behaving strangely, or your checkout process is giving out the wrong prices, or your site is down completely! Do you really want to spend time going backwards and forwards with quotes and estimates before anything gets done? And it doesn’t have to be major work - what about all those little tweaks you’ve been meaning to get done on your site for a year, but the red tape puts you off? After all, a website is never really done. There is always more to do.

That’s where a site maintenance, or support contract really comes in handy, and we think we have one of the most efficient and flexible ones around

How it Works

Each month you have a number of hours to spend, based on your support package. Raise a ticket, or phone on our free support number and speak with your account manager. You will be given an estimated number of hours for the task to be complete, and our developers in Essex will get to work. It’s as simple as that! And when the job is complete, you get to rate us on our performance. And we will make those ratings public, so everyone can see just how well we’re doing!

We have a range of pricing options available, depending on your needs. Still need convincing? Here are some of the other ways in which our support package can help you:

• Save time and money, and get things done
• Support hours are discounted, so you pay less
• But what if you run out of support hours? You can get a special rate on additional quotes
• You are assigned an account manager - you won’t speak to someone different every time you pick up the phone
• We can’t close support tickets. You close them so that every ticket is rated
• We will back up your sites files and database weekly

When you download one of our Wordpress Themes you will need to install it on your site before you can start using it. Here follows a generic tutorial explaining how to do this.

Download the theme you want.

You will get the file in a .ZIP format. You will need to “unzip it”. On a Mac, double-clicking will extract it to a folder. For a PC, it is normally best to right-click, and select “Extract here”, or similar.
You will now have a folder containing the theme.

Sometimes there will be a .txt file in this folder. - It is essential you read this txt file in case there are any specific requirements needed for the theme not covered in this tutorial.

The next thing you need to do is to upload the theme to the theme folder of your wordpress install.

Normally located here:

wp-content/themes/

You will need an FTP application and login details.

Activate your theme:

Login to your Wordpress site admin area. Select “Appearance” then “Themes” from the main menu.

You will see a list of all the available themes.
Click the one you wish to activate - then when the preview pop up appears, confirm the activation by clicking “Activate (name of theme)” in the top right corner of the pop up.

That’s it!! All done!!
Easy eh?

You may need to change a few minor settings to get the best from your theme.

And if you ever want to switch back? Just re-follow the “Activate your theme” section of this tutorial.
