Founded in 2009 and relaunched in 2019, our team has dozens of combined years of experience in WordPress and Small Business ownership.
Jesse Petersen
1978-2017
Jesse was highly respected within the WordPress community as an expert WordPress developer and educator. He was most proud to be named among a handful of Preferred Genesis developers. Jesse was also a theme and plugin developer and enjoyed many opportunities as a WordCamp speaker.
In 2009, Jesse formed Petersen Media Group, LLC and over the next 8 years served hundreds of clients, helping them grow successful businesses through their WordPress websites. In 2012, Petersen Media Group began offering premium hosting solutions to provide additional support and security to clients.
When Jesse suddenly passed away in July of 2017, the WordPress community rallied around Petersen Media Group and its customers, providing support and care.
