About

WPShout is a blog about WordPress, run by Alex Denning.

WPShout launched on 18th July 2009 although if you look through the archives on the site you’ll find the first post is dated 5th April. That’s because before being WPShout, this site was known as Nometech, in an attempt to fit in with my main site at the time, Nometet. I still run Nometet; I’m the editor there — do check it out, if only to see the awesome implementation of WordPress we’ve got on there!

WPShout is about WordPress and WordPress development, specifically theme development mainly. I try and do a couple of posts per week, but there’s not always time for that so occasionally you’ll have to go without your WordPress development fix for the week!

About Alex

That’s me there, playing golf. Yep. My name’s Alex Denning. I live in London.

I started working with WordPress after needing some way of having dynamic content for my site Nometet. I called up Fantastico and looked through all of the content management systems, installing a couple and then finally deciding that this WordPress thing was the best for me.

I’ve never looked back.

These days I pretty much work exclusively with WordPress; for me I can do pretty much anything I want with it so I’ve got no reason to use anything else.

After running WPShout for a couple of months Alex Cragg and I decided we’d start a premium themes site. Five months and a lot of work later, WPShift launched. As I write this we’re starting work on a second theme, the follow up to the very powerful ShiftNews which features a homepage that is powered only by widgets so you can just drag and drop it to create your own layout.

It’s awesome, do check it out.
