So you need a website. You’ve got two choices staring you down:
- A template – fast, cheap, and looks like a hundred others
- A custom design – tailored, strategic, and built to stand out
Let’s dig into what actually matters—and why custom design is the smart play if you’re serious about your brand.
🧱 Templates: The Fast Food of Web Design
Templates are everywhere. Platforms like Wix, Squarespace, or even basic WordPress themes offer drag-and-drop options that can get you online in a day.
But here’s the catch:
- ❌ You’re locked into someone else’s layout
- ❌ You bend your brand to fit the design—not the other way around
- ❌ Performance is often bloated with unused code
- ❌ Good luck standing out from the crowd
Templates are great for “just getting something up”—but if your website is meant to grow your business, that shortcut could cost you in the long run.
✨ Custom Design: Built for You and Nobody Else
A custom website isn’t just about looking different—it’s about functioning smarter.
With a tailored design, you get:
- ✅ Layouts built around your goals and user journey
- ✅ Optimised performance and clean code
- ✅ Seamless mobile responsiveness
- ✅ Branding that feels uniquely you
- ✅ Strategic placement of calls-to-action, contact points, and content
It’s the difference between wearing a suit off the rack… and one stitched to fit.
