Background Story
In our annual WPBeginner reader survey, one of the user suggestions that we always get is to build a company that offers affordable WordPress development and website maintenance services.
Now as you know, my focus has entirely been on building our WordPress plugins and software products, but I wanted to solve this problem for our users.
So I started talking with some of my friends who own WordPress development agencies to see if we could start referring customers to them in a more official capacity.
Most of them told me that they are always fully booked for months out, and asked me if I knew of smaller agencies or freelancers to whom they can refer clients because they were only looking for projects with larger budgets.
So at WordCamp US this year, I talked with several freelancers and boutique WordPress agency owners, and each of them told me that they too were fully booked.
In these conversations, I learnt that most reputable WordPress agencies and freelancers were not interested in projects that involved small website customization, website maintenance services, website migration, or even low budget custom website design projects.
Instead everyone wished that there was a company that they can use to offer white-label services to build recurring revenue streams while offering high-quality services to their clients.
At the same WordCamp US, I also met with Ryan and Gautam, the co-founders of Seahawk Media. They have been doing exactly this – white-label WordPress development services at revolutionary prices.
As I learnt more about what they were doing, I knew this was going to be a perfect partnership. Seahawk already has an amazing team that’s experienced in offering white-label WordPress development services to customers of big name companies like Dreamhost, Alibaba Cloud, Vendasta, Pressable, GoDaddy, and many more.
And they have a wide range of services from custom WordPress development to smaller one-off tasks like WordPress site migration, website maintenance & care package, hacked site repair, and others.
So I decided to invest in Seahawk Media with two primary goals:
1. Offer a reliable WordPress Pro services partner to small business owners that can handle all their website’s technical needs at affordable prices.
2. Offer our freelancer and WordPress agency audience a great solution to build recurring revenue by adding white-label services to their clients.
Many agency owners and WordPress freelancers are already using Seahawk Media to offer additional white-label services to their clients and adding extra recurring revenue in their businesses.
Along with agencies, many web hosting companies also use Seahawk’s white-label development services to activate and retain customers through professional website design services, website optimization packages, and more.
I am looking forward to working with Ryan & Gautam through the WPBeginner Growth Fund, and I will be advising the team on how to expand their business.
At Awesome Motive, we have years of experience building popular WordPress plugins that are used by over 25 million websites, including OptinMonster, WPForms, MonsterInsights, and many more.
Not to mention, our WPBeginner growth fund portfolio companies like MemberPress, Formidable Forms, Pretty Links, Wholesale Suite, Uncanny Automator, and others have seen tremendous growth over the years.
Sharing our combined knowledge with Seahawk Media will help all of us better serve the larger WordPress community.
They will be joining me at our next Mastermind.
As always, thank you so much for your continued support of WPBeginner.
WPBeginner and Awesome Motive would not be here without YOU, and I just want to say how much I appreciate all of you.
And I look forward to continuing serving you and the larger WordPress / web ecosystem for years to come.
Sincerely,
Syed BalkhiFounder of WPBeginner
