When guests visit your company website, having information about who you are and what you offer is important—but it’s no longer enough. Your site must also be engaging, modern, and functional. Without these qualities, visitors may quickly leave in search of a site that feels more up-to-date.
A simple way to create a website that is engaging, informative, and user-friendly is by using Divi Supreme.
Big news in the world of design software — Affinity Studio has officially launched, marking a major milestone for the creative community. Even more exciting: all Affinity applications are now completely free for everyone to download and use.

Canva’s purchase of Affinity signaled big changes ahead, and this release confirms it — the powerful suite of professional-grade tools is now available at no cost.
If you’re considering updating your website before the end of the year, now is the perfect time to start planning. But what’s the best way to maximize your online presence? A quick look at competitors’ websites will reveal a variety of design styles—but which layout best fits your needs while keeping your visitors’ attention? One increasingly popular approach is the split-screen design.
We live in a fast-paced digital world where capturing and holding attention is harder than ever. A Microsoft study in 2015 revealed that the average attention span had dropped from 12 seconds in 2000 to just 8 seconds in 2013. More recently, research by CNN found that the average screen attention span is now only 47 seconds—a dramatic decline from 150 seconds in 2004.
With numbers like these, your website needs to hold a visitor’s focus long enough to guide them toward your call-to-action (CTA). But while you want to highlight who you are and what you offer, overwhelming visitors with too much information can backfire. The key is balance. That’s where split-screen design comes in.

Everyone loves a good story. Whether your tastes lean toward sci-fi, history, mysteries, or biographies, there’s something undeniably compelling about storytelling. In today’s fast-paced world, where most of us have limited time, we seek stories that engage, entertain, and educate—quickly and effectively. The same applies to the time we spend online. We want information that’s not only fast but also visually and emotionally engaging. Enter scrollytelling.
First introduced by The New York Times in its groundbreaking 2012 article Snowfall, scrollytelling is best described as the art of storytelling through webpage scrolling. It’s an interactive experience where text comes to life, images move dynamically, and elements like video, 3D graphics, or audio are woven into the narrative to keep the reader captivated. Scrollytelling has been likened to reading a comic strip, breaking content into scenes or segments. It’s proven effective—especially in a digital world where we’re accustomed to consuming content via scrolling, just like on social media.
If you’re thinking about upgrading your website, adopting a scrollytelling approach is a powerful choice. After all, your goal is to connect with your audience—whether you’re showcasing your services, products, or mission. With scrollytelling, you can elevate your website’s impact and drive meaningful engagement.
