We primarily design websites using WordPress – the largest self-hosted blogging tool in the world and used on millions of sites. See Why WordPress? below.
We have a strong background in training and providing support and self-learning.
Throughout the process of designing a website we will offer and support you to be as involved as you’d like to be (some people want it all just done for them, while some people have lots of ideas, want to get stuck in and maybe learn new skills).
And anything you don’t want to be involved in … we just get it done.

Why WordPress?
“As of February 2017, WordPress is used by 58.7% of all the websites whose content management system is known. This is 27.5% of the top 10 million websites” (Wikipedia)
Difference between WordPress and Weebly and Wix
WordPress.org is a “website builder”
Weebly and Wix are “hosted website builders”
The first main difference is the level of complexity. You will need some technical understanding in order to set up and manage a website with WordPress. However, its expandability allows for much more.
WordPress.com (not to be confused with WordPress.org above) is a popular freemium blog hosting service
