WordPress Teacher Website: Buzzing With ms. B

Chrissy had an established Blogger blog with tons of Pinterest pins and links throughout the web, but her website had almost entirely stopped loading. She decided it was time to move to WordPress and update her branding at the same time for her new WordPress teacher website. With over 500 existing posts on her old blog, it was super important to carefully complete the transfer to preserve her traffic.

Services Used:

  • 100% Custom WordPress Dynamic Package
  • Blogger to WordPress Migration
  • WordPress Starter Store
  • WordPress Free Resource Library
  • Podcast Logo
  • Cookie Policy

I have put off having my site designed for years, struggling along with my blogger blog from 2011 and an old design. I finally decided it was time to get it done and I’m so glad I landed on Christi Fultz! She made the process pretty much painless (wish I’d done it sooner!) and I ended up with a site that I love. I had so many questions and sometimes I wasn’t even able to describe exactly what I wanted, but she was patient and figured out what I was looking for, providing me with options to choose from when I was unsure. She was easy to reach and followed through with everything she said she’d do. I would definitely recommend going with Christi Fultz if you’re looking for an update or a complete site design!

A custom WordPress teacher website is the perfect way to highlight your TPT business, educational resources, podcast, and more.

Branding Before

First, let’s take a look at the branding before. This was a very popular “scrapbook” style Blogger blog.

Chrissy still liked the look of her previous branding, but wanted to update it in a way that would feel familiar and new at the same time. She was open to adding a few new brand colors for extra visual interest and more design options. First, we looked at several new bee options and then I sent her initial header drafts.

Chrissy liked option 3, but wanted to see it in a few different subtle color changes.

Once we landed on the winning header, I sent coordinating round logo options.

Chrissy also wanted to use a few playful background designs in her website build, so you can see one of those here on her final brand board.

WordPress Teacher Website Design

Then it was time to build the custom WordPress teacher website. Her new design highlights her options for both classroom teachers and instructional coaches.

Each page is custom built and includes little touches to tie in her branding.

The custom blog archive uses the same doodle subject icons from the homepage to help readers find their favorite categories. The single blog page has a streamlined sidebar.

Chrissy runs an educational podcast for instructional coaches, so I also built a page to highlight top episodes.

Because Chrissy has resources for both instructional coaches and classroom teachers, I built two custom landing pages to speak directly to each target audience.

Finally, a contact page is essential for all websites.

A free resource library serves as a lead magnet to collect email addresses.

WordPress Teacher Website: Shop

Hosting your own store is the perfect way to control your traffic. With the starter store option, you receive a turnkey store that’s ready to grow with you over time. Category covers make it easy to navigate.

Each individual product has all of the important product info and will display related products below as she adds more items to her shop.

Blogger to WordPress Migration

Finally, when moving from Blogger to WordPress it’s important to preserve your old URLs. A custom redirect means her old “blogspot.com” links will point to the new WordPress teacher website. I also did a custom deploy to assign featured images (thumbnails) to each post. This was an incredibly important step for her blog since she had over 500 existing posts.

Custom Podcast Logo

Chrissy also needed a custom podcast logo that would coordinate with the new website design.

Once Chrissy approved the final round version, she also received a series of transparent text options to layer over her podcast graphics and other promotional materials

Faithful Parenting

Christi is unmatched. The fact that I’ve hired her not once or twice but at least a dozen times is a testament to how much I trust her and her repeatable ability to deliver above my expectations every single time. Her design and development work is incredible in its own right, not to mention her recent work helping me reach my site speed and CWV goals thanks to her beautiful implementation of a lightning-fast new theme! If you’re looking for a designer who knows all the things and will provide next-level customer service, you can stop looking. You found it.

Musings From The Middle

Christi came highly recommended by several of my peers and I after working with her, I can absolutely see why! Her work is gorgeous, her professionalism is unmatched, and her patience and guidance with WordPress newbies like me is awesome. I love the work she did for me and I feel confident that she set me up for success. Without hesitation, I’d work with her again or recommend her to anyone looking for help with building a site.

The Colorado Classroom

Christi was a blessing to work with. She was patient, kind, so knowledgeable, and so heartfelt in her desire to make me a website I was in love with. She really listened to me, even down to the smallest details, and she moved mountains to make me happy. The aftercare was top notch as well, with files, videos, help, and more. She really is the complete package.
Brittany

Neat Nest Miami

I was referred to Christi by Bill Erickson, who works on larger projects. I went to her website to check out some of her work and what really caught my attention is she focuses on helping woman entrepreneurs get their businesses up and running. I reached out to get some information and Christi was so prompt, informative and genuine. I absolutely love how my new site came out and will certainly be a returning client.

Hey Natayle

I love working with Christi! This recent website redesign was exactly what I was looking for. I created a mockup, and Christi helped bring everything to life. She was incredibly helpful every step of the way, and I appreciated her timeliness & patience while I changed my mind or wanted to try something different. The end product is beautiful, functional, and just what I wanted.

2 Peas And A Dog

If you are looking for a dedicated and professional blog designer select Christi Fultz. I have been blogging since 2012 and have gone through numerous blog designs and this one is by far my favorite. I loved Christi’s design process and her extreme patience with me when I had difficulty making decisions. She took my rough design that was laid out in a Google Doc and made it into a working website that reflected my brand. She was prompt in replying to my questions and worked with me until each part of the website was exactly how I wanted it.

Tina’s Teaching Treasures

Christi came highly recommended and I can see why! She was professional, quick to reply, and took care of all the details for me. I’m thrilled with how polished it looks, how quickly she completed it, and most of all, how easy it was to ‘hand her the reins’ and let her do her thing. I should have done this years ago, if I had known how easy Christi would make it! Such a great way to invest in your business.

A Selah Home

It was an absolute pleasure to have Design by Christi give my website a new and improved look. She took what seemed like an overwhelming process and broke it down into simple and easy to understand steps. She helped me create a clear vision for the new site–expanded on my ideas, offered much-needed guidance, and provided countless helpful suggestions. Christi not only met all my design needs, but her communication skills were flawless. She consistently responded quickly and professionally, while also remaining friendly and personable. I simply can’t say enough good things about my experience with Design by Christi!

Grace Filled Plate

Getting a new website is extremely exciting and yet completely overwhelming all at the same time. There are so many things that you want to accomplish and yet you’re not sure if it’s possible or if you’ll even like it when it’s done. Working with Christi was an absolute dream as she took my ideas and made them reality, one patient step at a time. She interpreted my ideas and helped me create a website that I absolutely love! I could not recommend working with her enough!

Teaching In The Heart Of Florida

I am completely in love with my new website! Christi was able to take my vision and make it happen in the most beautiful way! Her guidance throughout the process was invaluable and she easily collaborated with me to find the look I was going for. This type of project relies on swift and productive communication and in every instance, this was the case. The whole process was such a positive experience, and I would highly recommend Christi for any project you need!

Stacey's Circle

Christi is professional, hard-working, and dedicated to what she does. Above all, she is extremely knowledgeable with website design and it shows. Throughout the entire process, I felt 100% confident that my website was in the best hands. Christi was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns and made understanding the process a little bit easier for someone who knew nothing about website creation. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for professional and effective web-based services.
