The Early Days
Victor’s fascination with web design began in the early 90s when he stumbled upon NBA.com, a basketball site that captivated his interest. This early exposure to the web world sparked a passion that would eventually lead him to establish his own web design company in 2010. His journey wasn’t without challenges, but his unwavering interest in creating and designing websites kept him motivated.
Discovering Divi and Divi Engine

Enter Divi Engine. Victor found the perfect suite of plugins that complemented Divi’s capabilities and allowed him to take his projects to the next level. Tools like Divi Machine, Divi BodyCommerce, and Divi Form Builder enabled him to create dynamic, custom websites that exceeded client expectations.

This plugin provided the necessary tools to enhance product displays, optimize the checkout process, and refine the overall user experience. The result was a highly functional and visually appealing e-commerce site that delighted his client and boosted their sales.
Victor also utilized Divi Machine to build custom post types and dynamic content, allowing for the creation of intricate directory sites and content-rich websites. The flexibility and power of Divi Engine plugins played a crucial role in the success and growth of Victor Web Design.
