Introducing....the all new Sugar Bullets website...

Filed Under : Hello , Other

Posted By : ~ THE SUG4R BULLETS ~ | Comments : 9

...but be nice I've done it myself with no previous experience of web design

www.thesugarbullets.co.uk

In 6 months I've learned how to use Wordpress and basic HTML...not bad for a gobby salesman who plays drums :)

There's still a few bits to tidy up & add to ie, Gallery...but generally its pretty much all there.

We decided to go with the 'blog' style format on the home page so that between the 3 of us we can 'reach out to our fans' as they say.

Advice/suggestions welcome

Cheers
Dean

Ta, I thought if I'm to do this I may as well make a decent job of it. To be fair the program I did it in 'Wordpress' is really easy to use, it's mainly used for blogging but once you get used to it you can customise it with ease.

There's still things I need to do, but I'd still be here in another 6 months working on it.

Talking from being an experienced web designer, well done mate. Great site, easy to get around and straight to the point. Just get your keywords and meta tags working and it will be even better. There is a great add-on for wordpress called all-seo, google it and install it free as its the best one.

Looks bloody good that does Dean - well done mate

As Jay says, it's easy to navigate and straight to the point. Does a great job of advertising you guys and what you do but without all the needless fluff.

Feeling inspired to have a little play around with wordpress myself now - not expecting as much from my first effort though ;)
