Graphic designer, loving WordPress for 10 years now.

WordPress Origin Story

A decade ago I needed to find a better way to build web sites for clients, html was getting left behind and CSS was a must. WordPress was about the only option at the time and not that easy for a non-technical designer to go from the typical two column blog layout to a regular (non-blog) web site. It involved some messing with the code—scary stuff!! I have been thrilled with how WP has evolved since then, it has expanded and become so versatile over the years, with loads of beautiful themes, wonderful support and so many things are still free. I love WordPress!
