From a studio in downtown Portland, Forix Web Design offers web development that is enhanced with open source software. This company takes full advantage of Wordpress, a versatile software that can be easily installed on any web host and server. The core highlight of this open source platform is a content management system that can be mastered by any webmaster. CMS integration enables easy updates such as the addition of articles, photos, videos, blog posts and other relevant multimedia. Wordpress sites can also be alternatives to popular social networks. For example, mini sites allow bloggers to develop a loyal following of fans. Wordpress is also compatible with a variety of extensions that are released frequently through open source outlets. New plugins could be downloaded for free and then installed directly onto existing sites. Improvements in themes and overall functionality lead to much more sustainable Wordpress sites that are developed by Forix Web Design.
