Look Who is Using WordPress… Spotify!

Spotify is the Sweden-based online music service  that has transformed the way Europeans listen to their music, particularly on mobile platforms (much to the envy of many Americans). Like many companies, Spotify has harassed the power of WordPress to create their news portal.   Custom template styling has allowed them to match the rest of their site closely, for a seamless transition between the WordPress elements and other, traditional HTML design. Articles are categorized for quick reference and WordPress’s built in Comment system allows users to provide feedback, ask questions and add content in a secure, moderated settings.

 

 

 

The overall implementation chosen by Spotify is clean and relatively light, but effective.  A tasteful right hand sidebar features Recent Articles, Categories links and Facebook integration. A “fat footer” adds weight to the bottom of the page with quick links to important Spotify online resources and to their various social networks.

More and more often, WordPress is becoming the “go to” solution for organizations and companies seeking an affordable, flexible and robust way to present and edit their online content. Without the cumbersome development and restrictive licensing of other Content Management Systems, WordPress can run just the news/blog portion of your site or ti can encompass the entire site.  A intuitive, visual editor allows non-technical personal to quickly update text, add/remove pages and integrate graphics without knowing any code.
