WP Builds
Nathan Wrigley
Web site building with WordPress. In this podcast we follow the hopeless exploits of David Waumsley and Nathan Wrigley as they try, and fail, to understand WordPress.
They know that they love building websites with WordPress, but the complexities of this awesome web building solution are always out of reach.
Not only are they not clever enough, but they just don't try all that hard

24 – We have a plugin idea, how do we get customers?
This week we talk to not one, but two lovely developers (Nathan Tyler and Natalie MacLees) from California who have a really interesting take on launching their plugin. Their new plugin, Simply Schedule Appointments is launching BEFORE it’s ready!

23 – The price of using WordPress
Today we talked about the price of using WordPress. No, it's not a long sob story about how the wife and kid left us! Those trailer park days are behind us now!
The topic came out of a Facebook discussion around a plugin release. It got us thinking about our expectations as "professional" builders of websites.

In this episode (drum roll please) we had the great honor of talking to Amir Helzer. Amir is the CEO of OnTheGoSystems known for WP-Types' Toolset, the WPML multilanguage plugin and also ICanLocalize.
Yes, indeed, how did we manage that? More to the point, how did he manage that?

21 – Can we compete with Wix Weebly SquareSpace and Shopify?
We hate to say it, but DIY website building solutions are getting more attractive all the time. They offer an empowering solution to the "I want a website" problem. Are we facing extinction?

20 – What do clients need to know about web software licenses?
My oh my! Software licenses. What a knotty subject that it. It seems we both came to WordPress seeing software primarily as the tools we use to build websites. I mean who asks a plumber what spanner he (sometimes she) uses to fix a boiler? Okay, maybe Nathan might, but that’s not the point!

19 – What do you need to know to offer a full web design service
Today we ask ourselves what skills do we need to offer a full web design service. That sounded like a great topic. It turns out it's a bit slippery this one.Is a webdesigner like a graphic designer for the web or someone who designs business solutions that are realised on the web?

18 – What’s so great about WordCamp?
In what can only be described as a bizarre coincidence today is "World day of making a podcast about WordCamps".
Even more freakily (is that really a word?) we have both just recently attended our first WordCamps. I know, you're right - it’s almost unbelievable!

17 – What should we expect from WP support?
No guests this week. Just Nathan and David. Two guys in their middle youth chatting about stuff we love.
Ok, there maybe little bit of venting, but actually this is quite a nice topic.
Happy “Knowledge Base” day ;-)
