Introduction

Hey there! I'm Anthony Whitefield, founder of Agnikii Digital, an award-winning digital agency based in Gloucester, UK. We do it all—website design, website development, brand strategy, SEO, and digital marketing. Our expertise lies in creating engaging websites that build brand credibility, developing impactful brand strategies, and running digital marketing campaigns that prioritise SEO over SEM.

My journey into web design was sparked by a love for visual storytelling. I saw the incredible potential of websites—they could tell stories, pull people in, and create interactive experiences far beyond traditional media. I began in the early 2010s as a Junior Web Designer, driven by the thrill of blending creative visuals with functional tech. I soon transitioned into a web development team, which perfectly aligned my passion for design and code. I wanted to craft online experiences that felt just as powerful as film or print. It’s been an amazing ride watching those early experiments evolve into the immersive digital work we create today.

Before Themify

Before we discovered Themify, we were juggling multiple theme providers and doing a lot of custom coding from scratch. Building a website back then often meant hours upon hours of development—or settling for rigid, inflexible themes. We worked with a mix of WordPress and static HTML sites, each with its own set of challenges—mostly related to the time and effort it took to make the designs match our clients’ visions.

Our team often found itself wrestling with clunky layout builders that just wouldn’t cooperate. It caused a lot of unnecessary back-and-forth between designers and developers just to get the design right. As our project load increased, it became clear that we needed a smarter solution—something that could streamline the process without sacrificing creative control.

After Themify

We came across Themify during a major workflow overhaul back in 2015. I tested it out and was immediately impressed—it was a total game-changer for us. The intuitive drag-and-drop interface made bringing our ideas to life almost effortless. No more wrestling with tools—it allowed us to focus on what we love: design, functionality, and creating great user experiences.

Now, our workflow with Themify is incredibly efficient. Prototyping is a breeze, which is a huge advantage in our line of work. We’re big fans of the Ultra theme because of its flexibility—it’s our go-to for projects that require something custom and unique. The Builder feature allows for quick, real-time adjustments, making it easy to incorporate client feedback on the fly—which they love. Plus, we combine Themify with GSAP and custom PHP to deliver dynamic, highly customised websites that fully realise our clients' visions.

An Unique Challenge

In 2023, my life took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. It was a difficult time, and I had to make major changes to my diet and lifestyle. Despite the challenges, my experience with Themify allowed me to continue building websites for clients around the world—on my terms. The flexibility it offered was invaluable, enabling me to work from anywhere and at my own pace during recovery.

Agnikii Digital officially launched on October 1, 2024, and we've been growing steadily ever since. Our decade-long relationship with Themify has played a huge role in that growth—providing the foundation we needed to deliver innovative, client-focused digital solutions with both efficiency and creativity.

Conclusion

Themify has completely transformed the way we approach website projects. We highly recommend it to other WordPress users and developers who value creative freedom without the technical hassle. Looking ahead, we’re excited to push our work even further—bringing our creative edge to more brands and exploring more animation and immersive web experiences. With Themify, we feel fully equipped to keep innovating—and we can’t wait to see where it takes us next.
