Essential WordPress Theme Editing Tools

If your not a nerd, not a web dev or simply never plan to edit your own theme files ignore this post entirely. This is to help friends who see my blog often, use wordpress and could use a leg up…

Why wordpress?

That’s a long answer that woudl take too much time to sum up here, but the short answer is this…

* Easy to use once setup…
* Relatively easy to customize
* Incredibly easy to optimize for search engines
* Insane amount of plugins for sharing, shopping carts and more…
* Out of the box RSS, Commenting and other cool features.

I love that I can build someone a complete website and hand them the keys and say “here you go” and they can edit the site on their own without needing me. I hate web developers that hold the keys to the castle and love charging clients for the tiniest changes… I’m not a web designer by trade. I’d rather help people make money and get online exposure than make pretty websites… but that’s just me.
