Need help upgrading your WordPress to version 2.5?

Having worked with WordPress now going on 2 1/2  years one thing that seems to catch most people by surprise is the compatibility issues with some plug-ins and themes with successive developments. When the introduction of Tags was added to WordPress many themes simply would not work without modification.

For those who may find this a bit of a challenge I would like to extend the offer to perform the updates for you including any minor template fixes or simple modifications to plug-ins in order to bring you up to date with the worlds number one blogging solution.

Upgrading WordPress - $25 per project

Upgrading WordPress - $25 per project for any release from 2.0 to current.  Please feel free to use the contact me page to request an upgrade. 

The price is based on average time of 1 1/2 hours and includes DB and domain backup, compression of code, I remove white spaces from core code, and perform general SEF and SEO examination as part of the update. This examination includes a look at your HTACCESS for things like Canonical URL configuration, image caching, proper redirect and permalinks directives along with removing white space since HTACCESS does not cache the smaller it is the better for performance. I then add a robots.txt files which WordPress does not provide by default.  Most would agree that an update to WordPress is a mere 10 minute job which is true but why stop there when a detailed assessment and proper update and archive should be performed. 

Contact me today for an upgrade to WordPress 2.5

Special note regarding the WordPress 2.5 update process:

WordPress 2.5 does require a database update and I mentioned above that I always make a backup of the entire project folder prior to performing an update. This database update is essential to taking advantage of WordPress’s new features and careful attention to backup and recovery procedures should be followed.
