Websites are living, breathing things, and like us humans, they age too. But unlike us humans, websites can actually grow younger (we’re totally not jealous) with a little bit of help from, well, us! And here’s a perfect example:
One of our longest standing clients, Champor-Champor, a super delicious Thai restaurant in the heart of London, came to us over four years ago looking to create a website for their swanky restaurant. Obviously we jumped at the chance and created a beautiful, easy-to-navigate and fully functioning website.
Fast forward four years and guess what? Things have changed. WordPress designs are more seamless, better designed for user experience and generally look modern and cutting-edge. Let’s just say it takes a lot less time for a website to become vintage than say, a car! It was definitely time for a refresh.
So what did we change? Pretty much everything. Whilst we used the same content (which has been continuously updated throughout the years), we’re using a brand new parallax theme which essentially structures the website into one fell swoop (or one fell scroll, if you will). Parallax themes have become really popular over the last year and can really add that “wow” factor to a website.
We’ve also utilised some professional images our client had, displaying them in a full screen way that their old website simply wouldn’t have been able to achieve. We could go on, but simply put: the whole website has had a complete upheaval and refresh. And we (that’s us AND our client) love it. Have a peep here.
Trust us, a LOT can change in four years. In fact, a lot can change in even just a day with the ever-evolving internet, whether it’s new features, new apps and plugins, or simply new trends. It’s definitely crucial to keep up with the Joneses when it comes to websites, and luckily that’s our job! Think your website might need a refresh? We’re always happy to have an informal chat, so pop us an email or give us a bell.
