FAQ

Why hire a professional web designer?

With AI tools and DIY website builders, creating your own site might seem appealing. But a website is more than just code and visuals – it’s your digital storefront and often your first impression.

At Web Design Mattrs, we understand the intricacies of user experience, design psychology, and technical performance to build sites that are not only visually striking but also strategically effective. A professionally designed website is an investment in long-term success and growth.

Why choose WordPress?

WordPress powers 43% of websites on the internet, making it the most dominant CMS. Its flexibility, scalability, and vast ecosystem of plugins and themes allow Web Design Mattrs to craft tailored solutions that meet unique business needs. Plus, its intuitive interface makes content management easy – even for non-technical users.

Unlike proprietary platforms like Wix, Squarespace, or Shopify, WordPress is open-source and universally supported, giving you full control over your website. This makes migrating between hosting providers far simpler and more cost-effective, without the risk of vendor lock-in.

Notable brands using WordPress include Sony Music, Meta Newsroom, and Time Magazine.
