Guiding Parents on Their Next Adventure

Overview

My Maine Bees is a go-to online guide for parents looking for family-friendly adventures across Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts. Created by Rachel — a mom of three who personally visits and documents each location — the platform is built around real experiences, practical tips, and thoughtful details that help families plan stress-free days out. We partnered with Rachel to create a website that could grow alongside her adventures — something she could confidently manage herself while continuing to serve her community.

Organized for Real-Life Planning

With dozens of attractions and new ones constantly being added, structure was everything. We built the site on WordPress and worked closely with Rachel to organize content into clear categories and subcategories, making it easy for both her and her readers to navigate. Each post includes integrated Google Maps, location details, parking notes, cost breakdowns, and nearby activity suggestions — all designed to help parents quickly decide if a destination fits their day. Filtered search functionality and a dedicated tips page make planning even simpler, while a newsletter subscription keeps readers connected and returning for new adventures.

Built to Grow With the Community

Beyond the content itself, the site was built with long-term growth in mind. Affiliate link functionality and the appropriate legal documentation were implemented to support monetization in a transparent and compliant way. Because the platform is easy to update and manage, Rachel can continuously add new experiences, refine older posts, and expand her reach without relying on outside development support. The result is a content-driven platform that provides ongoing value to families while giving the creator full control over its future.
