Our Own Website Doesn’t Use WordPress and Why We Will (likely) Still Recommend WordPress for Your Business

We build WordPress and WooCommerce sites every day. It’s the core of our client work, and the platform we trust for businesses that need flexibility, integrations, easy content management, and eCommerce capabilities.

But when it came to building our own website, we made a different choice.
We used a static-site generator instead.

Not because WordPress isn’t a good solution, but because our needs are different from the needs of most businesses we work with.

In this new article, I talk some tech stack details and walk through:
* Why a static site fits our workflow but not most business websites
* How Liquid templating and a Gulp-powered pipeline shape our internal development process
* Where WordPress still shines (and why we recommend it for most clients)
* How to think about choosing the right platform for your goals

If you’ve ever wondered whether WordPress, another CMS, or a more lightweight solution is right for your business, we can help give you a clear framework for evaluating your options for a website that converts!
