About Me
I have been working in the internet industry as a full time freelance professional web designer since March 1997, accumulating a wealth of knowledge and experience during these past 15 years.
I specialise in best practice front end development; this covers web design including content management system integration (such as Joomla and Wordpress), website accessibility, usability and on-page SEO.
The advent of smart phones and tablets have changed the web landscape forever, your customers are no longer tied to a desktop or laptop; instead they will be using a myriad of devices to view your website, as such I am an advocate of responsive website design (RWD). RWD means that your website will be device agnostic, functioning perfectly no matter the device your customer is using to view it, e.g. iPhone, iPad, Android phone or Android tablet.
I am a firm believer in good Metadata and Microdata, not just standard HTML Meta data, but elements like Dublin Core, Microformats, Geo Meta Tags, Schema and Good Relations Mark-Up. This provides the search engines with clear information about your business and how they should interpret the data contained on your website.
I have extensive experience managing large scale internet projects and can assist with consultancy, technical document creation, wire frame creation, supplier identification and management and project management.
I have worked with multinational companies, including Glaxo Smithklein, Astellas and Debenhams, not for profit associations, such as EASO and BACCH and SME’s, such as storing dot com, TravelRest and Décor Tiles. No matter the client, I strive to produce the best work possible on time and on budget.
I work from offices in the centre of Bedford and am available during usual office hours. I am VAT registered and hold all relevant insurance.
