A Piano Music Site’s New Look
I just finished working on this piano music site just the other day:
It is actually a Wordpress blog that is made to look like a website. The blog is just a subset of the design:
The site is not exactly new. This was its past design.
The site owner, Michelle, decided to host this site on Bluehost to save on paying for the $20 per month. The Bluehost package that she had taken allowed her to create as many blogs as she like to have. She included this one with her existing set of blogs in Bluehost to take advantage of the deal.
Since this site advertises professional piano services, I had decided to adapt a clean classy look for it. At one point I had considered black or even a combination of red and gray, but I decided to settle on browns and yellows.
The template was customized from the header to the background. I had also changed the RSS icons and the individual “bullet” icons at the sidebar. I’ve configured this one so that the sidebar appears only when the blog section is clicked by the visitor.
Under its hood, I had added a number of Wordpress plugins for the site, such as the sideblog, Google sitemap generator and a number of useful plugins to catch spam and allow cache on the site.
Here is the working site: http://www.strictlypiano.com

Very nice, clean look. So many sites, blogs especially, are cluttered and confusing.

pchi’s last blog post..Resolutions tag - solved!
Sometimes I encounter that problem myself too. Then that page gets suddenly working. Hay… That’s the kind of problem that’s quite difficult to troubleshoot (better if that page link doesn’t really work at all).
