If you’re like most people you’re always looking for ways to cut expenses out of your budget. And right now, spending money on a custom WordPress design may seem like an extra expense that you just can’t seem to justify, especially not when there are free WordPress templates out there that you can simply tweak a little to fit your needs…right?
Perhaps. But we think that it’s not really all that simple. In the long run, you’ll spend many hours developing a do-it-yourself site that just doesn’t professionally market your brand. And after all the migraines you’ll incur, you may end up wishing you’d just hired someone in the first place. Yes, custom WordPress design and development may be an investment. But we believe that it will return to you in full many times over. Here’s how.

We’re loving the new office – and the view! What do you see out your office window? For size reference notice how small the tug boat on the left looks!
We’ve all seen it. That hideously ugly WordPress design that either causes us to cringe in pain as we struggle to close the screen, or inspires us to call a couple friends over to laugh and point. No one wants that reaction, least of all a company with a message to drive home. In terms of WordPress design, what makes one good and another bad? Isn’t beauty in the eye of the beholder in some ways, yes? But here at Nicasio Design and Development, we believe that there are some elementary principles that a WordPress site must follow to not find itself in the category of “bad blog.”
Nicasio just got back from WordCamp Atlanta and we had a great time. We were Silver Sponsors of the event and we were glad that we could help (in a small way) make such a great event happen.
We want to thank the organizers, volunteers, other sponsors and of course the speakers for a great WordCamp!
We can’t wait for WordCamp Atl 2011!
iFive needed their new website design built out to incorporate two different platforms – WordPress and Wild Apricot.
The WordPress theme we built is a highly custom theme using advanced content management techniques which allows iFive to control every aspect of their site’s content from within the site’s admin.
The Wild Apricot build is a custom Wild Apricot theme which allows iFive to maintain the same look and feel across both platforms while gaining the membership benefits of Wild Apricot combined with the content management and scalability of WordPress.
A customized version of our own Dynamic Headers plugin also makes an appearance on this site.

The web has been buzzing with talk of the new L5 remote for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Nicasio Design had the pleasure of creating the website for this innovative new product.
L5 needed a way to market their genius new device and had an idea for site design, but needed someone to bring it to life. This is where we (and WordPress) came in.
Using a slick, custom theme powered by AJAX (also with non-javascript support of course) a web presence was created for this exciting new gadget in record time.
