It's a reality when a business anniversary ticks by and you didn't even register. Just last week Wonderful Websites turned 15 years old. You would think that being a numbers person, and starting on the 10th day of the 10th month in the year 2010 would be enough for me to keep track. However, I was so busy doing day to day things that the big 15 year anniversary went unnoticed.
Not that there needs to be any fan fare, but it is a good opportunity to reflect, and also to...
In the dynamic world of digital imagery, the advent of artificial intelligence has sparked a fascinating debate: are AI-generated images superior to traditional photographs? This question not only challenges our perception of creativity and authenticity but also opens doors to new possibilities in visual arts and technology. Join us as we delve into this intriguing discussion on Wonderful Websites.
AI-Generated Images: The Rise of Synthetic Realism

Happy New Year!
While it might feel like just another Monday to some, for those of us in business, June 30th holds real significance. It’s a moment to refresh, regroup, and reflect. This past year brought its fair share of economic uncertainty, and although we’ve moved beyond the height of Covid, the ups and downs have certainly remained. But that’s business — it’s always been cyclical.
On a personal level, it hasn’t always been easy keeping all the balls in the air. That’s why the picture I shared really resonated with me....
It’s the question floating around in tech circles, coffee shops, and late-night brainstorming sessions: Will AI replace web developers? As tools like ChatGPT and no-code website builders get fancier by the day, it’s easy to start imagining a world where websites magically build themselves — no humans needed.
But let’s take a breath. At Wonderful Websites, we live and breathe web design and development, and here’s what we really think: AI is amazing, but it’s not here to take over. At least, not in the way some headlines would have you...
Your website is often the first impression potential customers get of your business—and in many cases, it's the deciding factor between gaining a new lead or losing one. A well-designed, functional website builds trust, showcases your brand, and helps turn visitors into loyal customers.
But if your website isn’t performing as it should, you could be losing valuable opportunities without even realising it.
Here are 10 of the most common website mistakes businesses make—and how to fix them before they start affecting your bottom line.
1. Slow Loading Speed
If your site takes too...
Artificial intelligence is everywhere—from product descriptions and social media captions to student essays and even digital art. While AI tools can be incredibly helpful, they also raise questions about originality, trust, and authenticity. Knowing how to tell if something was generated by AI can help you make better judgments about the content you read, share, or even purchase.
1. Look for Writing Style Clues
AI writing tools often produce text that feels too polished or oddly generic. Common signs include:
Repetition of phrases or ideas.
Sentences that are grammatically perfect but lack...
When it comes to securing the perfect domain for your business or project, many people turn to the practice of backordering. The appeal is simple: backordering allows you to claim a domain that is already taken but might become available if its registration expires. While it sounds like an easy way to get your hands on a desirable domain, there are hidden risks involved—particularly the potential for inflated prices and bidding wars that can make your desired domain far more expensive than you anticipated.
Here’s why you should think twice before...
As we approach the end of another year, it’s natural to feel a little tired. The final stretch of any project — and the year itself — can leave you feeling worn out but also proud of what’s been accomplished. At Wonderful Websites, we can relate to that feeling. After a year filled with hard work, creative solutions, and collaboration with incredible clients, it’s time to pause, reflect, and acknowledge the milestones we’ve crossed.
The end of the year often feels like a finish line that we’re rushing toward, but it's...
As a business owner or part of an organisation getting a website is paramount. However, although you may have engaged Wonderful Websites to undertake routine maintenance, it can be tempting to think that your role is done. After all, your website is in good hands, right?
While it’s true that we can take care of the back-end, the front-end experience, and even ongoing maintenance, it’s still essential to regularly visit and engage with your website yourself. Here’s why you shouldn’t let your website go unmonitored, even if you’re not the...
