Website & Graphic Design Resources

DLS Graphics: Nashville | Mt. Juliet | Lebanon, TN
Below are links to resources such as website hosting, theme providers and plugins that I have used as well as additional resources that I have found helpful. Many of these are free, with premium versions available, some are paid. Please note that I do use affiliate links, when these are available. This means that at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.  *** I have used all of these resources on various sites (many on this one) and I will not recommend anything that I do not personally believe in. I will be adding to this list as I come across new info!


Inmotion Hosting
I recommend InMotion Hosting for this. They are available 24/7 and you can secure domains as well as hosting for websites. They also offer free SSL Certificates which provide validation for ownership of a domain and visually reassure your visitors that their connection to your site can be trusted . *Please note that DLS Graphics is an affiliate of InMotion Hosting, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.

WordPress Themes

I cannot say enough about Elegant Themes. I have a life-time membership and use their theme, “DIVI” on nearly every site that I create. Their support team is highly responsive and they are continually updating and adding new features to DIVI as well as their numerous other themes. *Please note that DLS Graphics is an affiliate of Elegant Themes, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.
