David is fabulous New York storyteller, puzzle creator, humorist, and soon-to-be-published author!

Client Need:
David needed to update his professional website. He previously had a blogger account. He needed a place to store his blog posts, show his little illustrations, and also to promote his upcoming book.
Solution:

I set up a customized WordPress blog for him to easily update.

Site features:

  • Customized WordPress theme
  • Customized image rotator – illustration changes on page refresh
  • Automatic Twitter updates:  whenever he posts, it generates an automatic Twitter message with the post link.
  • Twitter update widget: recent Twitter posts are shown
  • Customized “welcome” messages depending on visitor source. In the picture above, the visitor has come in with a direct link. If the visitor had been directed from Facebook, they would have been welcomed with a Facebook message, and presented with a link to “share” the site on Facebook.
  • Multiple subscription options: users can follow him on Twitter, subscribe to RSS feed, etc.
  • I also provided him with Twitter training – how to write good Twitter posts, the best time to twitter, using hashtags, URL shortening services. etc.
