If you’ve ever been made to feel that your tech stack is wrong, or that using a page builder makes you less of a “real” developer, this episode is here to give you a reality check.
Welcome to another episode of Websites Made Simple with me, Holly Christie.
In this episode, I’m talking about tech stacks, tech shaming, and why the platform you build on matters a whole lot less than what you’re actually delivering.
We get into:
- What we’re actually being hired to deliver — and why the tools are irrelevant
- Why client ease of use should drive every tech decision you make
- The difference between a proper handover and abandoning your client at the door
- Why locked-down websites cause problems for everyone, including you
- How imposter syndrome fuels tech shaming in the web design industry
- Why personality and trust win clients over tech stack every single time
- The disappearing developer problem and how to be the designer clients return to
If you’ve been tech shamed, or you’ve been second-guessing your tools, this will help you refocus on what actually builds a sustainable web design business.

Nobody handed most of us a manual for this.
Web design is a self-taught industry, so we all arrive from different angles, with different tools, and it's far too easy to decide you're "doing it wrong" the moment a louder voice tells you their way is the only way.
