Whether you're a freelance WordPress developer who'd like to cut out the middle man, a staff developer thinking about striking out on your own, or a WordPress entrepreneur looking for tips on how to attract more clients and expand your business, this book is for you.

Author Rachel McCollin shares what she's learned as a head of her own agency about pushing WordPress to the limit - and beyond - to stay competitive and grow a successful WordPress-driven business.

Writing from both the technology and business perspectives, McCollin explains that there's often more than one solution to a WordPress challenge, and she shows you how to choose the best one for you, your client, and your team. With the help of many real-life examples, she shows you how to:

¿ Work effectively with clients

¿ Establish robust, secure development and hosting environments for you and your clients
¿ Work with custom themes, theme frameworks, and plugins to meet client needs
¿ Scale up and use WordPress for larger projects
¿ Give your clients the customized sites they want
¿ Use template files, functions, and styling to create sites with complex designs and layouts
¿ Make a WordPress site soar with HTML, PHP, JavaScript, and CSS
