Welcome back to our blog series where we’re peeling back the layers on why WordPress is the cornerstone of our web development process at Coast. In this second and final instalment, we’re getting down to brass tacks: the tangible benefits of using WordPress.
Beyond Aesthetics: Performance and SEO
At Coast, we understand that a beautiful website is just the beginning. In today’s digital landscape, performance and search engine optimisation (SEO) are king. WordPress, with its robust framework and SEO-friendly structure, ensures that our websites are not only visually captivating but also rank high on search engine results pages. The platform’s emphasis on clean code and mobile responsiveness means our creations load quickly and look great on any device, providing an optimal user experience.
Revolutionising Web Design: The Block Editor
The introduction of the Gutenberg block editor was a game-changer for WordPress and for us at Coast. This revolutionary tool has transformed how we create content, offering a level of flexibility and control that was previously unimaginable. With the block editor, we can build complex layouts, experiment with design elements, and fine-tune every detail of our websites. Say goodbye to those pesky hard-coded modules that our clients (and non-developers) can’t update! We want to create your website so that’s it’s as easy as possible for you ro use in the future.
A Platform for Growth
One of the most significant benefits of WordPress is its scalability. As our clients’ businesses grow, their websites can evolve right alongside them. Whether it’s adding an online store, integrating a booking system, or expanding into new languages, WordPress’s flexibility ensures that our clients’ websites can adapt to their changing needs without missing a beat.
