Hello all, I'm a freelance web developer based in Exeter, UK, in my first couple of years of being self employed. I build WordPress websites focusing on clean and simple design with minimal weight. I have been building websites for about 10 years, but working for other agencies. Since being freelance, I've built a few websites, manage hosting for a few clients. It's going well, but slow. Currently looking for tips and advice on how to increase number of leads, what are some of your strategies for locating new clients that all of you use? I was hoping to see what other freelancers do to be efficient and increase revenue. Would love to connect/collaborate. Thanks, Charl…

Hello all, I run a small web design studio in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, Canada. I was born in Gillingham, Kent but my parents moved us here when I was little. I build WordPress websites focusing on modern and clean websites with minimal weight.

Hi there, I'm a web developer in Bristol with a little agency doing websites and web maintenance for small businesses. I've worked pretty much exclusively with WordPress since about 2018 - for the sake of standardisation - but used to manage sites in other systems as well and just recently I've been looking into re-learning Drupal for some more complicated membership-type builds... you can do this sort of thing in WordPress too but it involves a lot more duct tape and chewing gum, particularly if you want to keep members out of the wp-admin area altogether. Anyway, I like meeting/caffeinating/playing D&D with other web people IRL and I've always found there's a l…

We’re a tiny two-person team working on something fun called doodl — a lightweight web app that lets anyone draw, doodle, and share sketches instantly, all for free. Think of it as a digital napkin for quick ideas, memes, or mini artworks — no account required, no fuss. If anyone is interested it can be found at doodl.it.com Right now, Doodl is focused on simple collaborative drawing and sharing — you can make a quick sketch and send a link to a friend or post it publicly. In the future, we’re planning to add a feature that lets artists mint their favourite sketches as NFTs, keeping ownership simple and transparent while preserving that spontaneous “just draw it” vib…

Hi, I am Rahul. I am Digital Marketer. I am new here.

How are you doing guys. Im an upcoming freelance videographer from germany and right now, I'm spending a lot of time investing in myself. I have my all needed gear and already shoot and publish a little documentary. My goal is to build up a brand and really step into the market. A name, a website and a demo video are in the pipeline and are almost ready. Therefore I am not a professional designer as most of you likely are. But as I am building up this website, I was hoping to ask for some advice, how to improve and reach out some guidance. Thanks for taking your time, and all the best to you!! cheers.

I'm back - with a new project.... https://www.thewebnexus.com/ https://www.thewebsiteguy.biz/

Hello everyone! I'm Maximillian (Max for short), and I'm excited to join this webdesignerforum community. My background is in traditional web design, but recently I've been exploring the fascinating world of AI-powered web development. The way artificial intelligence is transforming our industry has completely captivated me - especially how it's making web development more accessible to people with different skill levels. I've been experimenting with several AI platforms (particularly impressed with what Biela offers) and am amazed at how quickly the technology is evolving. I'm looking forward to being part of discussions here, sharing experiences, getting …

Hey, I’m Ksusha, product designer at a small remote team where everyone wears multiple hats. The CEO also develops, I'm as a designer manages marketing and writes specs, the developer juggles several projects at once... and none of us has time to figure out how to use yet another overcomplicated platform just to keep work organized. 🌀 A Day in My Designer Life (Before Dun) ☕️ Morning starts with my boss having a client meeting on Google Meet 📝 He sets a task for me in Shortcut (which we also share with the client) 📩 I get an email notification — because Shortcut has no iOS app (and my inbox is full of spam) 💬 If I have questions, I ping my boss in Slack 🗨…

Overview We are a small team of around 20 people, and I’ve created an email signature where the top section remains static while the bottom half can be updated as needed. The goal is to allow remote updates to the image and link without requiring each team member to manually change their signature. To achieve this, I’ve hosted the email banner image on our website server using a generic filename, so it can be replaced when updates are needed. Additionally, I’m using a Tiny CC link to manage redirections when necessary. Problem Despite updating the image on the web server, individual PCs and Macs are not displaying the new version. Outlook and Mail seem t…

HTML Email Signatures Aim We are a small company of around 20 people. I have created an email signature (Top area will remain static the bottom half will change) The idea is that i can remotely update the image and image link without having to rely on everyone to change it themselves. I have hosted the email banner image on our website server with a generic name that i can then overwrite when we want to change the image. The Tiny CC link i can also manage the redirect link when that needs to change. Issues When i update the image on the web server, the individual pcs/ macs are not displaying the new image. Outlook and Mail seem to be caching the imag…

Hi Web Designers! Hope everyone is good. I have decided to create an account on this website to learn from you guys and hopefully become proficient in web design. I have dabbled in creating websites several times before in the past, but never took it any further to an experienced level. Recently I have decided to learn something worthwhile and interesting. I have set my mind to becoming a web designer. My goal is to become proficient and creative. At the moment I am amateur level, but slowly learning bit by bit. I know the basics of HTML and CSS, and getting better the more I practice. I have begun learning Javascript as well, but at the moment my script knowledge is…

Hello, I am new to this world and tinker with websites and ideas more of a hobby. Im in a motor trade managment position, nearly hitting 40 (4th jan 😭) and really wanting to explore this world as a side hustle. I like the world of A.I. - sorry to the designers out there, and i want to have my own website that creates brand packages, and then more....but the whole concept around the more needs to grow from the automated brand logos/banners/images, the closest site to where I need my site to start is smashinglogo.com. I have been told it would be their own software, however I have come across a couple of sites that generate the same kind of images, for exampl…

Hi everyone, I am here because I have the task of re-building my wife’s website (https://psychotherapie-kukowski.de) because the way this had been programmed (by an agency!) is faulty and the website doesn’t run with new PHP versions.

Hello web developers & designers! I'll start by saying my last real website project was circa 2007/2008 so the landscape has changed dramatically since then! I started to learn about web design / development in my school years, though schools back then didn't have an I.T. department, so it was largely at home. My early days of web development began with the aid of Frontpage & Frontpage Express along with the best book at the time for HTML, HTML Goodies by Joe Burns, an incredible author in my view. A huge shame he retired a long time ago. But I can understand why, I remember for quite a few years it was chaotic; xhtml, shtml, php, asp, python, cold …
