The new website makes it harder to convince clients to use ProcessWire

[MrSnoozles]

Hi all,

first of all I'm sorry this is going to sound a bit negative. But ever since the new website launched I feel like it's increasingly difficult to convince clients that have never heard of ProcessWire to use it. Have any of you experienced the same?

I'm not a designer, but I feel like the content and the design have been made to target developers. That's valid, but if our client's don't want to use the system, neither can we, at least professionally.

In my opinion at least the homepage would need a design and content overhaul to streamline the first impression and explain to non-techies why ProcessWire is awesome.

"Colour seems an appropriate place to start. When given the choice, try something audacious rather than safe. The worst that can happen is that it doesn’t work. It’s not like the sunk cost of painting a room; if you don’t like the palette, you simply change the hex codes. The same is true of fonts, icons, and other building blocks of the web."

I disagree. As a designer and developer, I think the new design is much more professional, contemporary, and appropriate.

Compare it to the Dupal or WordPress website. Do you think they are better positioned? What information do you think is missing for customers?
