WordPress websites for parish, town and city councils
While most of our councils choose the ease of use and clean design on our V6-5 platform, some councils may need more than the V6-5 has to offer. If your council is engaged and involved in the local community and interacts with the public, you may benefit from having a WordPress site. This platform is simple and easy to use while meeting unique needs of your councils.
Our WordPress sites are custom-configured and designed to cater to the individual requirements of each council. Our expert design team takes care of hassle free content setup, expertly formatting your initial text and images into engaging web pages, we even move 2 years of minutes and finance files, saving you valuable time and effort. When needed, we can create components and website features based on the clerk’s needs e.g. enabling showcasing finance files in a specific way.
WordPress has an intuitive interface, which allows clerks to manage the council’s website with just a short training session, making updates as easy as using Microsoft Word. Its versatility and continuous improvement make it the ultimate choice for active councils.
Please note that while WordPress is a user-friendly platform, it requires more expertise than V6-5 platform, as detailed in our comparison page.
