We built advanced functionality into Turbocharged, so that you can:

  • add extra navigation and interaction features to your site
  • leverage social networking sites with zero effort
  • manage and upload images and thumbnails, and add video and audio files to your pages
  • add gorgeous effects to image galleries, or integrate external galleries
  • post articles through your WAP mobile phone
  • understand your audience better through visitor, article and referrer statistics
  • add real-time, AJAX-powered chat (shoutbox) to your Web pages, for provision of support or community building
  • integrate third-party services: syndication feeds, Flickr, del.icio.us bookmarks, or FeedBurner feeds
  • improve search engine rankings, by automatically adding the right keywords and META tags to your posts
  • designate static pages as the front page for your site
  • and more!

Usually, building a site by hand out of regular WordPress and downloaded plugins is hard and time-consuming. This is not so with Turbocharged, because:

  • We’ve spent man-months pre-selecting, performing quality audits and improvements, and bundling the most popular plugins. Results? a time-saver package that doesn’t require programming skills.
  • We’ve also developed several additional plugins that suit WordPress for further uses beyond simple blogs: corporate Web sites, product Web sites or Web marketing efforts are tasks easily undertaken with Turbocharged.

Come on, we invite you to see the enhanced management console for yourself.

Again, you’re not limited to these plugins. You can also plug third-party WordPress plugins into Turbocharged. Turbocharged is compatible with WordPress plugins designed for WordPress 2.0 and above. As always, you choose how much functionality you want.

Why go the extra mile?

You may ask, why go the extra mile ourselves? It’s pretty simple, actually: we eat or own dogfood.

We understand what a webmaster and a blogger needs, because we’ve experienced the needs ourselves. Turbocharged is exactly what we use on our sites and blogs, and no less. Through Turbocharged, we’ve gone from weeks to minutes to build a site from scratch. Keep reading.
