Q&A with Santa – How he uses MainWP to manage his websites

Notice: This article is completely fiction. No part of this shall be considered true. Hopefully, you will find the Christmas Spirit so that Santa’s sleigh can fly this year. We have had many Q&A articles over the years here at MainWP, but this one is very special! Dennis noticed a testimonial from a guy named Kris a while back. We looked into it and it was actually Kris Kringle. Yes, THAT Kris Kringle! The one and only Santa Claus. After months of trying to get in touch with him, he finally answered our email and agreed to do a Q&A

It’s that time of year when we review the year we have had. I am sure you have been doing that already for your own business.

The great Web Care Consultant Survey of 2021

Have you ever wondered what your peers charge for web care services? Have you ever wondered what other services your peers offer? Yeah. Me too. That’s why I decided to find out. I created a survey to find out these answers and a few more. And since Google is powerful, I used its form feature to create the survey. It will only take a few minutes to fill out.

Q&A With WordPress power couple Cate & Topher DeRosia of HeroPress

Somewhere along the way –I can’t say when– I ran across the HeroPress website. As you all know, I really like stories and the telling of overcoming adversity. HeroPress tells those stories, so I was immediately attracted to the platform. Over the past several years I have been fortunate enough to meet Topher and Cate (virtually) DeRosia, the couple behind HeroPress. I have worked with them in various settings. In the past few months, HeroPress expanded with new projects and looking to be a bigger player in the WordPress space. HeroPress has been around for about six years now. Originally,

October Toolbox: Various ideas for video calls

Communication. It’s kind of important. I learned one time that communication is derived from the same word as a community. So, if you want community, there has to be good communication. I have a friend who played an FBI Analyst on the hit show NCIS New Orleans one time. Her role was during crunch time and she played someone trying to get a trace on a call with a kidnapper. Communication can be critical. That’s why in our industry, we often take video calls. Seeing someone face to face is important to building trust. Thanks to several different tools, we

Q&A with Birgit Pauli-Haack of Gutenberg Times

When Gutenberg started being a story in the WordPress community, I went searching for resources. One that I found early on was Gutenberg Times (GT). I found out that the person who ran GT was Birgit Pauli-Haack, and over time I struck up a conversation with her via Twitter DMs. She was very nice and very accommodating for any questions I had. Over time I have found her to be a rock in the WordPress space with lots of expertise, credibility, and a great human being. Today, I have the honor of publishing a Q&A article with Birgit asking questions
