E.Webscapes was approached by Beth at Nashville Glam to create a fabulous new design for her insider’s guide to beauty and fashion and fun in Nashville; it’s everything but the music. The not only did Beth want a new design, but we also switched her from TypePad to WordPress, our favorite, versatile platform!

Beth wanted a look that was fresh and fun, and she didn’t want it to look too stereotypical “country” – no cowboy boots or denim! Of particular note for Beth was the look of her header design. Beth was very particular about the look she wanted to achieve, and We was able to find that look for her! He was also able to answer a lot of questions that Beth had regarding using WordPress.

We was also able to achieve a lot of great functionality for Beth through the use of WordPress plugins, including some great Search Engine Optimization, the NextGen Photo Gallery, integration of social media such as MySpace and Twitter, and way to sell some fun merchandise as well! He even through in a WordPress upgrade for her at the end of the project!

Beth’s website sure turned out fun and trendy! We look forward to all the fun “country music scene” gossip that she digs up for us!
