Responsive Web Design

At CoolCat web Design we believe in:

• Keeping it simple
• Responsive web design
• An uncluttered yet effective layout
• Delivering a site that is easily updated
• Giving the business owner full control
• Creating a site that can grow with your business

For example, a site can start with just a basic landing page and from there can grow to a full membership e-commerce shop with a blog and more. WordPress combined with literally 1000’s of available plugins gives our customers the option to scale their site as their business or website idea grows and changes. We use WordPress with Cornerstone (CMS) and Woocommerce. These three building blocks form the basis of our responsive website designs, and allow our customers the power of the biggest CMS platform in the world. All in all the best mix of flexibility and scale-ability combined with a huge support community.

We use WordPress for all our new sites. WordPress is currently the biggest content management platform available 65% of the global market as of 2016. It’s free and open source software. It scales brilliantly through the addition of plugins, of which there are literaly 1000’s to choose from.

27% of the Internet is Powered by WordPress

We use Cornerstone CMS which extends the WordPress CMS adding extra point and click functions along with a live preview. Cornerstone also supports responsive web design, allowing the view of the pages to shrink or stretch with the size of the device. In addition this choice allows us to give control of updating and changing the website back to the customer. Some website designers take advantage of their customers by forcing them to pay for every content change like: photos text, videos, product listings. After finishing the site to our customers satisfaction we can give them the power to update the content on their site without having to pay us to make every little change. This can make a big difference to the website owner, not to mention save a lot on expenses.

Woocommerce is built for WordPress, it integrates with the WordPress framework. You can sell anything, from real products and digital downloads to subscriptions and content, it’s all possible with Woocommerce. Woocommerce makes your products look just as good on the mobile as they do on a desktop or tablet. Woocomerce scales well, from selling just a few products to selling millions. Once again one of the reasons we have selected Woocommerce for use with our clients, is the strength of its support community.
