WordPress.org

I cannot say enough good things about WordPress. It has given me the ability to create my blog based on things I love with customizable themes, helpful plugins, and the interface is so simple to use. It’s SEO friendly, you can use it on the go and you never have to worry about someone hacking into it as it offers high security. You have the freedom to build whatever you want with WordPress. What more could you ask for?

For themes, I highly recommend Studio Mommy and Easy Blog Themes. With 45,000+ plugin options, you’ll be sure to find something useful.

You will need a hosting company if you want a WordPress.org website. I personally use Webhostpython because it’s great and affordable and it was recommended to me by another reputable blogger.

KeyFactor

When it comes to your website, you want to make sure your content is safe and secure. KeyFactor offers PKI encryption. What exactly is PKI you ask? Public key infrastructure (PKI) is a catch-all term for everything used to establish and manage public-key encryption, one of the most common forms of internet encryption. … These keys not only are part of the encryption process, but they help authenticate the identity of the communicating parties or devices. You can find much more about what they offer on their site.

Trello

Trello is a collaboration tool that organizes your projects into boards. In one glance, Trello tells you what’s being worked on, who’s working on what, and where something is in a process. Trello’s boards, lists, and cards enable you to organize and prioritize your projects in a fun, flexible, and rewarding way. It’s incredibly easy to use and accessible on any device.

I personally like using this tool when I’m working on my Holiday Gift Guide or any guide for that matter. I can easily invite another blogger to my board and vice versa. We can see what the other needs to do, the info being shared, and make sure we get everything done on time. Trello is a godsend during one of the busiest times of the year for me as a blogger. I love that it offers checklists and the interface is so easy to use.

Store Tasker

Finding a great developer or designer to update your website shouldn’t be so hard. With Store Tasker, it’s different. It’s a marketplace that connects website owners with freelance developers and designers. They offer 24/7 on-demand access to a network of hand-vetted experts. Imagine, you’re up at 3 am and find that your WordPress is down. Forget about writing a brief and looking through profiles to get a dev to help you. Store Tasker connects you with a developer right then and there and your site is back up in time for your morning readers. As someone who depends highly on my site for income, I know the importance of it being up at all times.
