5 Star Plugins (Rob) (@5starplugins) – WordPress user profile

Bio

I’m Rob, Chief Developer at Five Star Plugins, we strive to build the best WordPress plugins for marketing to accomplish basic to complex projects. Harness the power of eCommerce, branding, content marketing, email, lead gen, and social media. Our products are offered as forever free plugins with the option to upgrade to Premium Pro Marketer. Premium members enjoy additional features for the best marketing and world-class tech support in the United States.

Interests

A big fan of really good storytelling, watching movies, and collecting audiobooks. I especially love thrillers based on a really good book/audiobook. My favorite movie is The Matrix and all that it represents now and in the future. My favorite author is J. D. Robb, known for the plainly futuristic New York based “In Death” series.

WordPress Origin Story

I started with WordPress around 2010 when blogging was really taking off, and started the San Diego Bloggers Meetup group. Since then, I’ve rebranded my agency to specialize in WordPress design and development, and co-founded 5 Star Plugins with Melonie, building plugins that change the way users can use WordPress to do more, automate more things, and improve their websites.
