Did I mention that I like WordPress?
WordPress is an excellent tool to underpin a modern website.
It provides content management functionality that is easy for clients to understand and use, and is flexible to design and develop for.
It’s also great at SEO and has many third party plugins which extend it’s capabilities without the cost of needing to build that functionality from scratch.
WordPress WebsitesBasic CMS Website
At the budget end you could use an existing base theme, which can be quick to get up-and-running.
However, such websites aren’t unique to a client and can be quite restrictive, so are only suitable for budget level marketing sites and blogs.
If you want to be seen as a professional organisation, and want to ensure the best user experience for you audience, then it’s often better to avoid this approach.
Professional CMS Website
If you want a website specifically branded for your organisation, which is designed for and tailored to your exact requirements, and those of your audience, then this is the approach to take... which is why I recommend it.
Using a bespoke theme like this gives the most professional solution which meets a client’s audience and objectives perfectly.

Responsive design:
Making your website look great on a range of devices.
It’s vital that your website looks and works great on all kinds of different devices, such as mobiles, tablets, laptops, desktops and even watches!
If you don’t have a mobile friendly website then Google and other search engines just won’t give you as much love as you deserve.
As an experienced web designer and web developer, I understand how to deliver the right user experience for your audience, how to plan and design with the appropriate devices in mind, and how to develop mobile-first responsive websites.

Time for a few samples of projects I’ve been involved with.

Springwood Ceremonies: Helping you say it from the heart
Springwood Ceremonies create bespoke weddings, baby namings/welcomings, or funeral ceremonies, tailoring each ceremony according to the wishes of those involved so that they come truly from the heart. As a new start-up they needed a competitive package of identity and marketing materials to help launch and establish their brand, and loved the fact that Synthetic Egg could offer everything they needed in one place.

I also gave it a modern new look and feel and added a shop.
MALP Tutors Website
MALP Tutors helps psychology students and teachers gain extra information and support to aide their progress and future endeavours. Synthetic Egg helped them bring new clarity to their offerings, and created a consistently branded fresh new website to promote their services and sell their courses and revision materials.
Some bloggy thoughts
Own a WordPress website? Then it’s vital you know about the upcoming Gutenberg editor!
As you may be aware WordPress has been developing an update on how it manages content editing, most notably around the plans to replace the text editor with it’s own content builder functionality named Gutenberg. You may even have seen a dashboard widget when you login to your site announcing it’s arrival? What is Gutenberg?…
