An effective, stylish web presence doesn't have to cost a fortune...

What you get...

Your website will be designed from scratch to meet the requirements of your business and the requirements of your projected website visitors.

You can get a simple, professionally designed site from as little as £130.

Some examples of my work:

Man in a Van

A simple website that enables visitors to find 'Man and Van' services in their area. The site was designed to give the essential information and allow the visitor to easily get a quote and book removers and couriers in their area.

Optixmedia

The Optixmedia website was created for a photographer who wanted to display his work online in a stylish way. We agreed on a simple 3 page site that provided quick access to his portfolio of work with only the minimum of text so as not to detract from the main aim of the site - to display his photographs

The Palominos

The Palominos are a rock band who wanted a presence online that allowed visitors to find out information on upcoming gigs and enable them to download demos of their songs. They also wanted logo designed that they could use on posters and cd's. A mailing list was also set up using PHP and MySQL that allowed users to sign up to receive regular notifications by email about new additions to the such as new gig dates and new tracks to download.

Web design with the personal touch...

• Don't want a website that is just a copy of hundreds of others?
• Don't want lots of unnecessary extraneous content that just distracts from the message you want to transmit to your site's visitors?
• Want a website that is tailored to your specific needs?

The simple approach to website design is often the most effective way of pleasing the visitors to your site. Large, cluttered, sprawling websites will, more often than not, deter visitors making them leave after a few seconds of confusion.

Small, simple sites with bold designs will provide quick access to the information your visitors want to find whilst also pleasing the eye and making the experience an enjoyable one for the user. This will lead to repeat visits which, in turn, means more business for you.

What I can do for you...

• Website designed from scratch based on needs and desires of the client.
• Logos designed and formatted for web and print media.
• Sites designed to be accessible, quick to load and easy on the eye.
• Hand-coded, valid XHTML and CSS which conforms to web standards.
• Sites are coded with search engine optimisation (SEO) in mind.
• Other web technologies (Javascript, Flash, PHP, MySQL) available when required. Uses for these include:
  • Animated banners.
  • Dynamic content which visitors can interact with.
  • Content Management System - so you can easily change content of your website.
  • Mailing Lists to keep subscribers to your site up-to-date with your latest news or offers.

What I will need from you...

In order for me to design your website you need to have a clear idea about what you want your web presence to achieve. Some things to consider are:

• What do you want your website to say.
• Who is your website aimed at.
• What style do want your site to be (business-like, humorous, arty).

Giving careful thought to these will help to make the whole process quicker, easier and result in the final design being closer to your initial concept.
