Ability to handle a greater array of seafood recipes while providing more categories, more depth of related topics, as well as ease of use played a considerable role in determining the right software to use for the site redesign. After months of research, Seafood Plus Info chose to switch to the open source CMS - phpWebsite by Appalachian State University (http://phpwebsite.appstate.edu)
Researching the "out of the box" features like ease of installation, easy template switching and attention to detail with documentation and coding, Seafood Plus Info made the leap from a hand coded website to the open source CMS package. "Finding a wide range of high profile sites using phpWebsite along with a vast array of add-ons through the open source community, reinforced our intent to switch to phpWebsite", said Mr. Hudson of Seafood Plus Info. Noting the conversion of existing recipes to the new system took less than a day and the major search engines have continued to rank the site well for key categories like shrimp recipes, scallop recipes, crab recipes and more, Seafood Plus Info has shown to be poised for even greater things on the web.
Michael stated, "People who love to cook, our visitors, are why we exist on the Internet. Their time is valuable and we want to make the most of that experience while on our site."
