Get striking design solutions from an established Essex brand. Over the last 30 years, I’ve worked with hundreds of brands, large and small, to help them bring their design requirements to life. I don’t run your average agency. Forget sharp suits, sky-high fees, and empty promises – I work closely with business owners and marketing executives to create unique designs that are both professional and

packed full of personality. I’m known for delivering work that’s far beyond my clients’ expectations, and it’s my attention to detail that’s driven my success throughout the last three decades. I have fantastic, long-standing relationships with my clients and enjoy a healthy volume of referrals from these businesses because they have unwavering faith in what I can do for them! I specialise in creating brand new logos and brand identities for start-ups, but I’m equally at home working with more established companies. My team and I also offer copywriting, digital marketing, and SEO services, ensuring we can provide everything you need to launch and maintain a strong presence for your brand, regardless of your size or sector.

⚠️ Another warning I'm afraid... please stay vigilant! ⚠️

As if the WordPress security issues this week weren't enough, a number of my clients have today received fraudulent emails pretending to be from Design FX Studio.

The sender is using the following fake email address:

❌ hello.designfxstudio.co.uk

This is NOT my email address. Any emails received from this address are fraudulent.

The email also requests payment in US dollars ($100) - another clear sign it's a scam, as I'm a UK business and would never invoice clients in dollars.

Please do not reply, click any links or open any attachments.

If you're using Gmail, please report it as phishing (using the three dots menu or by right-clicking the email, depending on your version of Gmail). I'd also really appreciate it if you could forward it to me so I can continue reporting it.

My genuine email addresses are:

✅ [email protected]
✅ [email protected]

Thank you everyone for your vigilance! 🙏

It's certainly been one of those weeks! 😵‍💫😫

If you own a WordPress website, it's worth making yourself aware of the recent critical security vulnerability affecting WordPress, tracked as CVE-2026-63030 (also known as "wp2shell").

This vulnerability affected out of date versions of WordPress worldwide and highlighted just how important it is to keep WordPress core, plugins and themes regularly updated. It's no different to keeping your mobile phone or computer up to date with the latest security updates.

Over the past five days, I've been working through all of my clients' websites - restoring sites where necessary, updating WordPress core and plugins, taking fresh backups and carrying out thorough security checks to ensure they're fully protected. It's certainly been a busy few days, but the peace of mind knowing they're secure again has made it worthwhile.

This incident has reinforced why website maintenance is no longer something that can be overlooked. A website isn't something you can simply build and leave for years without ongoing care.

If you'd like to read more about the wp2shell vulnerability, here's a good explanation...

⚠ Stay vigilant, everyone! ⚠

wp2shell is a pre-auth RCE in WordPress Core (CVE-2026-63030 + CVE-2026-60137). How it works, affected versions, PoC, detection and remediation.
