In the last couple of years, a new type of web designer has emerged: the WordPress web designer. <\/p>\n

What is a WordPress web designer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a nutshell: smart, forward thinking web designers that base most if not all of their web design work off of WordPress. That means the entire web site is built using WordPress. <\/p>\n

Why build all your sites using WordPress?<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the very same reason you don’t go the woods to kill a turkey for Thanksgiving (you go to the grocery store) … is why WordPress web designers don’t build static HTML websites – why would you not take advantages of all the things that WordPress does for you for free!<\/p>\n

… Some nerd details:<\/strong><\/p>\n

When basing your web site off of WordPress, you get all this functionality for free:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Advanced templating for easy site wide updates.<\/li>\n
  2. Built-in SEO<\/li>\n
  3. Automatic search and categorizing of your content.<\/li>\n
  4. Built-in image upload and insertion.<\/li>\n
  5. Built-in text editor and the ability for non-nerds to add, edit delete pages.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    … And that is just scratching the surface!<\/p>\n

    The economic advantages of using WordPress<\/strong><\/p>\n

    If you haven’t guessed it already, using WordPress in your day-to-day web work WILL have major economic advantages – in a nutshell, you will be able to provide a lot more for your clients for a lot less work! This will lead to you landing more web design contracts<\/a> and making more cash because the extra WordPress skills will allow you to charge more for your time. <\/p>\n

    I’m such a big believer, I’ve even created a few video courses on WordPress<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    Until next time nerds!<\/p>\n
