Why Starting Fresh Is Sometimes the Cheaper Choice
I’ve been asked many times to take a look at a website that just isn’t performing. It might be slow, unstable, hard to update, or simply not do what it was meant to do. On the surface, it often sounds like a quick fix. In reality, that initial check can already be time-consuming. The moment […]
Enny vs AI: When One Line of CSS Beats Twenty Lines of Code
Every now and then, AI hands me something that makes me smile, shake my head, and think, “Oh mate, you tried.” The other week, I ran into one of those moments. I was working on a Squarespace site and needed a simple fix for anchor offsets. In my head, I already knew the solution. I’d […]
Stop Adding Things. Start Removing What Doesn’t Help.
There is a scene in Anchorman where Ron Burgundy starts adding graphics on the screen until it becomes absolute chaos. It is funny, but also painfully real. News programs do the same thing today, with tickers, pop ups, and moving banners trying to keep viewers glued to the screen. But more noise does not equal […]
When a Redesign Isn’t the Answer
Not every website needs to be rebuilt from scratch. Sometimes what a site really needs is care, not a complete makeover. When a client comes to me saying, “I think I need a new website,” my first step is to check what’s already there. How long has the site been up? What platform is it […]
Why I’m Not Afraid to Change My Mind in Design
Design, much like fashion, moves in cycles. We go through trends that rise, fade, and then come back with a new name and a shinier coat. Just look at Apple’s new “Liquid Glass” design. It’s the same concept Windows Vista once called “Aero Glass.” Everything comes around again, just evolved. That’s why I believe in […]
How to Keep Your Website Alive (and Not Just Online)
A website isn’t something you build once and forget about. It’s alive. Not in the biological sense, but because everything that runs it keeps changing. Code evolves, platforms update, plugins get replaced, systems improve (and sometimes break). A website built a year ago is already different under the hood today. That’s why I always say […]
Why I Do a Bit of Everything and Wouldn’t Have It Any Other Way
When people ask what I do, the answer changes depending on where I am. At my BNI chapter, I’m the Web Wizard. The one rescuing websites, fixing spacing issues, and helping businesses look their best online. But outside of BNI, I usually introduce myself as a multimedia specialist. I like the term. It’s honest. It […]
Why I Don’t Believe in Perfect Websites
I love a polished website. Clean, cohesive, intentional: the kind that looks like everything has fallen into place. But “perfect”? That’s another story. Perfection is flickering. It changes shape the moment you reach for it. The site you adore today might not feel right in a year, not because it was bad, but because you […]
Enny vs AI: Who Is Your Website Really For?
There’s a saying I often hear in web design circles: “Your website isn’t for you, it’s for your audience.” On paper, it sounds clever. In practice, it’s only half true. If you don’t like your own website, you won’t update it, you won’t share it, and it’ll quickly gather dust. So, who is a website […]
Why DIY Websites Aren’t as Free as You Think
“I built my website myself; it didn’t cost me anything!” Oh really? Not to be harsh, but… is your time not valuable at all? Because time is precisely what you’re spending, and a lot of it. I’ve seen so many business owners pour weekends, nights, and spare hours into cobbling together their own websites. And […]
