U.S. Speed Sport Goes Live

One of my latest projects went live this weekend. U.S. Speed Sport is devoted to the memory of one of the pioneers of hot rodding, Ted McMullen and his company U.S. Speed Sport.

It’s a WordPress powered site using a custom theme I built on the Studiopress Genesis framework. Why build on the Genesis framework? Genesis provides strong search engine optimization out-of-the-box, dead-simple WordPress upgrades and a great set of core widgets. Now the client can add pages, customize menus and change images on the homepage or headers without requiring a developer.

U.S. Speed Sport also uses Gravity Forms for intelligent form design and handling, and Slickr Flickr to integrate photo galleries hosted on Flickr.

Check out U.S. Speed Sport.
