Mighty Fine Insights

Web design and development is where we cover what it takes to build a website that looks right, loads fast, and actually does its job. A successful site isn’t “design + publish”—it’s a process: strategy first, structure second, content next, then design, development, testing, launch, and ongoing improvement. When you skip steps, you feel it later in slow performance, messy navigation, unclear messaging, and pages that don’t convert.

In this category, we dig into the fundamentals that make modern web design work: mobile-first layouts, clean UX, and SEO that’s baked into the structure instead of sprinkled on at the end. You’ll find guidance on planning a professional website (goals, audience, scope, and content), making UX and SEO work together, and using analytics to spot what’s leaking in the funnel. We also cover CRO and A/B testing—because the best websites don’t stay “finished.” They get iterated on like athletes: test, learn, improve, repeat.

On the build side, we get into web development topics that keep the design performing in the real world: WordPress for business, speed and stability, smart plugin choices, and the unglamorous essentials—hosting, updates, security, backups, and maintenance. You’ll also see topics like animation and copywriting handled the right way: purposeful, consistent, and never at the expense of speed or clarity.

Explore the articles below for a clear, practical view of web design (and the web development support that makes it hold up)—without the fluff and without the guesswork.
