The Nuts and Bolts
Fast load times, minimal coding, standards compliant XHTML/CSS - these are the nuts and bolts of a website that hide behind the scenes, but have a major impact on how it functions on the front end. You need a website developer with the experience to optimize page load speed and render content correctly in all the major browsers - a skill that is not easily learned.
The development of a website can literally make or break a sale - if it doesn't function properly, your potential customer may not be able to check out and purchase your products. If a contact form is not properly coded, the email lead may never get to your inbox. If a video does not play efficiently, they may never view it and make an action.
Modx - The Best CMS
Big Buddy Media (almost) exclusively uses the Modx Content Management System to develop client websites and manage their content. Modx is literally the best CMS you've never heard of. WordPress is the most commonly used CMS today and it's great for blogging, but it falls short of the capabilities, extendability, and functionality of Modx for full-blown websites.
Buddy has built countless websites using Modx over the past several years. Building websites with Modx allows for easy integration of advanced techniques in website development. The best part? You can manage your content yourself without having to wait on a developer to update your website for you.
Modx allows you, the end user, to add/remove pages, add text and images and much more without having to take a weekend training class in web development. If you can send an email, type a document in Word, or use Facebook, you can use Modx to keep your website up-to-date.
