Web Developer Recommendations?

    Hey guys, so recently my sites have started becoming good earners and I have always really wanted my own professional looking web design that everybody will recognize everytime they hit my site. But I also want a restructure of my site done as well so that all my content is better organized and I feel that currently Wordpress doesn't provide the right solution.

    So I was wondering if you guys could recommend any professional firms out there that charge $$$ for a template and a reorganization of my site using a different CMS.

    I would really appreciate any help!

    Cheers!

    I strongly object your sentence where you say Wordpress does not provide the right solution. I can assure you that you can do miracles with Wordpress. It is the best CMS over there. If you want to achieve whatever you want and that with Wordpress please let me know and I will never let you down.

    ok, basically I want to have a page for each game that I cover on my gaming site and each page must be unique with its own game product link/image as well as maybe a different theme. Not only that but each of these games must have sub categories like reviews, previews etc. and each of these must be callable so that the site can have an overall reviews page and lists all the possible games reviews. So I am thinking that I need a better cms system rather than a blogging one.

    I think my best bet may be Expressionengine but I don't have a clue how to structure that and I don't have a decent site etc.

    If you have already decided to use some other CMS, it's your wish. But whatever you mentioned here is 100% possible with Wordpress.

    Wordpress + Themeforest for themes = a very good portfolio or cms.

    How about learning and understanding basic HTML... No matter what CMS you use in the future understanding basic coding will give you much better control over your online endeavor. Try Alleycode HTML Editor, free, 2.5 million downloads and comes with a great tutorial.

    Alleycode is an older but solid editor used by schools and webmasters around the world for small and large design projects. http://www.alleycode.com/features.htm

    Enjoy,

    I know how to code html, css, a bit of php, javascript, C#. XNA so don't try and come on these boards and tell people what they don't know whilst trying to plug your own products cause you are just gonna piss people off by giving them useless information.

    Although GoNetix has a point, when you would really master XHTML/CSS (maybe a bit PHP) you could actually create
    far better things! However, I master all three of those things but I'd still go with wordpress. First of all,
    it's easier to maintain your website with a CMS (like you probably think), but also because a wordpress website
    with a good template can't be seperated anymore from a truely legit HTML/CSS website!
