Some Tools and Services
This website is static and runs using simply static, I’ve found their support to be excellent and their documentation good and the benefits of making your block or sites static using a tool like this are many so If your considering that I recommend them
Another email provider I’ve been using for about 5 years and have some of their best legacy offers I am not an affiliate, and I am not a lifetime deal holder I pay on some tri-annual deals from a previous Black Friday offer
Another tool I use on reallyusefulplugins.com, it handles my premium licensing and updates and my sales, I have made extensive tools for surecart including URL Paramaters & Dashy
I’ve got all of SurelyWP’s plugins on Reallyusefulplugins.com. I run their support portal and I also run their toolkit for surecart too for its FluentCRM integrations
ACF is my custom fields and post type plugin of choice I use the pro version and its probably the third plugin I install on every site after ACSS and Bricks, its rare for me to build any site that doesn’t use ACF including this site where it powers this tools query loop! ACF is my favourite simply because it just works, has great documentation and videos and is the industry standard.
Gridpane hosts most of my sites, I am on their developer plan and have about a dozen VPS of various sizes with their support is top notch their scripts are great, and I really love their documentation, I can’t recommend them enough and infact they are one of only 3 webhosting companies I can recommend depending on your budget
The basis for almost everyone of my sites my builder / theme of choice what can we say about bricks its is currently the best builder both in terms of output and third party support, I have lots of third party additions for bricks and this strength’s what I can do with it, the output is pretty clean, it does a really good job and this is the reason it is the basis of my sites.
