We've always had mixed feelings about using "template websites" but we've recently been working with Wix, and have to admit, there are benefits! ⁠ ⁠ They have really upgraded their systems, and we get to work within their partner programme and experience first hand what they offer to smaller companies⁠ ⁠ We can now give clients a new option - saving a significant amount compared to our usual bespoke designed WordPress websites!⁠ ⁠ If you're not sure whether you should go for a Wix site or a WordPress site, let us know and we'll ask a few questions to help you decide!⁠ ⁠ #wix #template #website #websitedesign #themes #webdesign #love #options #choices #smallbusiness #design

Here we've prepared a more expansive explanation of the differences between Wix and WordPress to help you choose what's best for you!⁠ ⁠ It's well known that Wix (like Squarespace and Shopify) is a DIY option, specifically designed for the bootstrapping startup or solopreneur. If you want to add e-commerce - Wix provides this too - we have a client who has built her website in Wix and it handles all her orders.⁠ ⁠ What we found was really cool is that we were able to build one of our bespoke designed WordPress multipanel sites in Wix, and we got it done in 2 days!⁠ ⁠ That's pretty fast and shows how intuitive Wix is.⁠ ⁠ Let us know if you'd like help with deciding on which platform is best for you!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #website #websitedesign #webagency #wix #wordpress #compare #comparison #builder #bespoke #theme #template #design #diy #smallbusiness #marketing ⁠ ⁠

Many people we talk to come to us because they have trouble articulating what makes them different and great – the “Unique Greatness” that exists within! Our specialty is to help people reveal this so they can feel proud of how they are seen – and by the time we’re ready to launch their project, we know it’s ALL TRUE!⁠ ⁠ Here’s a handy set of questions we set out for you to just experiment with the words that come out when you dive into the abyss that is you. Answer these quietly behind the scenes, there’s nothing to fear and no one will judge you! When you’re ready, send us what you’ve come up with and we’ll help you refine the message.⁠ ⁠ #message #communication #marketing #website #design #proud #websitedesign #who #business #smallbusiness #personalbranding ⁠

Have you experienced any of these issues?⁠ ⁠ There are 3 problems we tend to solve:⁠ ⁠ 1. People struggle to articulate and visually show what makes them a great business/provider⁠ ⁠ 2. People suffer from "embarrassing website shame" and generally aren't proud of what they look like online⁠ ⁠ 3. People are overwhelmed and confused by the technology ⁠ ⁠ The last one is the one that creates the most extreme feelings of stress and dissatisfaction!⁠ ⁠ If you're there - stop - reach out. We have a fantastic team of technical coders and they fix things like this all the time!⁠ ⁠ #coding #technical #website #code #forms #speed #pagespeed #hackers #layout #design #websitedesign #wordpress ⁠ ⁠
