Think again!
We don't use WordPress - we use Joomla - a CMS from the ground up, built for content management and out of the box contains so much more than many other options.
If you want a secure, fast, and easy to update website for your business, this video shows you how fast and easy it is to add a new blog post to Joomla - I talk for longer than it takes to create and publish it!
The demo is done using our training website, so no design or styling is applied - unlike the results of our bespoke website process for clients.
Want AI built in to help create your content? We can do that too - take a look at our [recent blog post](https://www.lightbulbwebdesign.co.uk/website-design-blog/entry/introducing-ai-powered-website-content-creation "AI powered website design in Carlisle, Cumbria and the UK") for more information.

Chris is the founder and lead strategist at Light Bulb Web Design, a UK‑based creative agency specialising in psychology‑driven, AI‑ready websites for professional service businesses. From law firms and financial practices to property and consultancy brands, he helps organisations turn underperforming websites into high‑trust, high‑converting digital assets.
With a background rooted in web design, technology, and human‑centred strategy, Chris writes about the real issues holding most websites back; unclear messaging, bloated builds, weak trust signals, and structures that search engines and AI simply can’t interpret. His work blends behavioural insight, technical precision, and a deep understanding of how people make decisions online.
Chris speaks at industry events, sharing practical, no‑nonsense guidance on AI‑aware optimisation, digital trust, and the future of web strategy. When he’s not building or refining websites, he’s exploring the intersection of technology, psychology, and business growth - and helping service‑based brands show up online with clarity, confidence, and credibility.
