WordPress

I am going to have an initial look at WordPress. As you may know, WordPress is housed with a not for profit organization. Looking at the WordPress website, it’s difficult to determine the corporate structure. Who owns the software that WordPress runs on? For WordPress.com, where are the servers located and who owns them. When you use WordPress, what do you own and what do they own? How do you…

WordPress Themes

I have been trying to build my website/blog for a long time now. Originally, it was something to do for entertainment. For some reason, it became a whole lot more serious. Not sure why.

I started to look for a theme on a self-hosted WordPress site. It became apparent pretty quickly that there was a lot to choosefrom. In fact, it became overwhelming. Under the latest theme button, there are over…

Shopify - A Better Financial Picture?

Shopify – A Better Financial Picture?

I had a look at the financial statements for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. It includes all four quarters (the year in total) for Shopify. At first blush, the company is in far better financial condition than it’s competitor Wix. It is cash rich net of its current liabilities. But it has been losing money over the last number of years, and the trend is that it loses more money with the…

At the…

Squarespace - Another One of the Players

Squarespace – Another One of the Players

The next company on the hit parade is Squarespace. Squarespace offers another turnkey solution to building an online business. I have used it myself and must say you can put together a beautiful website. I find it, however, much more difficult to manipulate. But with time. I pretty sure that even the Luddites among us will be able to handle it.

Information on Squarespace

A Look at Wix - Is It Great or So So?

A Look at Wix – Is It Great or So So?

I would like to have a preliminary look at Wix. Not from the point of view of a website builder but from the point of view of a corporation. The place to start will be the investor relations section of their quarterly and/or annual reports. I don’t think that any of you will want to dive into the financial information, but let me give you a few of the highlights that I think are relevant to your…
