What does iCita mean and how do you pronounce it?
iCita is pronounced eye-SEE-ta. It was derived from the name “Cita” given to a pet cat back in 1994. When we needed a name for our new company in 2000, the “i” was added to the name “CIta” because at the time an “i” was being put in front of names of products and services, like the iPod. So we became iCita LLC. The Cita name came from the word “mamacita” for “little mother” (sometime translated as “hot mother”). We know, it is a round about way of explaining the origin, but it’s true.
How have you been in business for over 20 years?
Actually the founder, Thomas Smidt, worked for a few other web companies in the 1990’s including starting a venture funded company in Boulder, CO. But in 2000, while the Vice President of a startup, he decided to start iCita and branch out on his own. Incidently, the startup Thomas worked at was creating the intelligent core of what would become Expedia (that’s another story). Thus began Mr. Smidt’s move to working on iCita full-time. We have always had a virtual office environment and have partners and employees around the United States as well as long-time contractors/partners in India and Peru.

Why do you use WordPress?
WordPress is an open-source content management system that runs websites. that allows a very large degree of functionality to be integrated with it. Wordpress powers over 42% of the Internet. Plus, we’ve tried them all. In the 1990’s we started building websites using just HTML code. Then stylesheets came along and with them other cool things like PHP programming language. At one point we had to decide between building websites using Microsoft products or using Linux based applications. We opted for Linux and PHP, and WordPress runs on PHP. Needless to say there were a lot of other content management platforms before WordPress which we used (and some we still support).
What is a CRM?
A CRM is a customer relationship management system for managing a company’s relationships and interactions with customers (including potential customers). CRMs are integrations many times into websites and some of them provide their own website and content tools. They are an essential tool that manages marketing, sales, digital commerce, and customer service.
What is localization for a website?
Localization is a way of adapting a website to appeal to a local market whether that be a city, state, region, group, or even a country. Through search position, listing services, location detection, language, design and other local elements, an experience is created for the audience visiting the site.
