Speaker Interview: Jared Beasley

Tim: What’s your WordPress “origin” story?


Around 2007 I gave up struggling building sites from scratch in Dreamweaver / trying to reinvent the wheel and discovered WordPress. The ease it took to get a site up and running quickly while maintaining the ability for deep customization had me like whoa. I haven’t looked back.

Tim: Whats your top 3 WordPress plugins? Why?

  1. Google Analytics Dashboard for WP – Simple yet robust enough
  2. Gravity Forms – I buy local 😉
  3. WooCommerce – Not because it delights, but because it sells

Tim: Whats your most proud achievement around WordPress?


Making an actual living off of it.

Tim: What do you want our readers to know about you?


When it comes to WordPress, I love learning and sharing what I’ve discovered. I’m very much looking forward to sharing some of those discoveries and hopefully glean some goodness from others as well.

Tim: Define yourself with one word.
