Self-Managing Your Site.

You first need to analyze your purpose for having a website before you decide which kind of design you need.

Sometimes it is absolutely crucial for you to have a business website where you can constantly make changes yourself. In that case, a Wordpress site might be the solution you need. We can then use a Wordpress premade template to create your business site. Setting up a Wordpress site is fairly complex, but once it's done, many people are able to look after their content changes themselves.

However, before considering a Wordpress site, you need to ensure that you have the ability to work with such a platform. You must be comfortable with working with images and text and you have at least a general working knowledge on how to deal with a Wordpress template.

Affordable Web Network, a division of Affordable Web Design Ltd, can use a Wordpress theme if you need to look after your own website.
Pros & Cons

When is it best to use Wordpress?

There are certain times when a CMS such as Wordpress is highly recommended:

  • When you need to make a lot of constant changes to your business website on a regular basis.
  • You are familiar with how to work with photos and graphics (cropping them, sizing and optimizing them to be used in your website)..
  • You are able to follow the overall layout of the premade design, keeping your image sizes consistent throughout the site, keeping the font consistent throughout the site, keeping your Wordpress "plugins" updated, etc.

When is it best NOT to use Wordpress?

There are certain times when it is best to avoid using a CMS such as Wordpress:

  • When you don't want to do any updating yourself. If you just want your web developer to do your changes to your informative website, then choosing a custom designed website is most likely best for you.
  • If you don't need to make a lot of constant changes on a regular basis, then its best to let us do your updates as required. This will also ensure proper Search Engine Optimization.
  • When you are not comfortable working with images.
  • When just don't feel that you can follow the overall layout of the design.
  • When your requirements are best served by something completely customized to your own needs.
