WordPress is one of the most popular content management systems (CMS) for building websites, and designers who specialize in WordPress play a key role in creating visually appealing and functional websites for a wide range of users. WordPress designers need to be skilled in both design and development, with a focus on using the platform's themes, plugins, and customizations to create websites that meet clients’ needs.

In addition to design principles, WordPress designers need a solid understanding of front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) as well as how to work within the WordPress ecosystem, including the use of theme builders (like Elementor or WPBakery), page builders, and custom themes. Familiarity with WordPress plugins (such as Yoast for SEO or WooCommerce for eCommerce) and an understanding of web hosting, security, and maintenance are also essential.
