About me
I aim to provide professional quality web design solutions to companies or
individuals who do not want to pay the high prices of larger design firms.
I have over 10 years of high-level experience with computers, and over 8 years experience in
making websites. I began making websites professionally approximately 2 years ago.
This site is a showcase for various professional websites I have created.
My background qualifications in computers include A-Level Computing and a Masters degree in
Computer Interactive Systems.
My skills
The various tools, technologies and programming languages I use to create websites are listed
below.
Web Development Tools
Macromedia DreamWeaver MX
Microsoft Visual Studio
Website Coding
HTML
CSS
ASP
JavaScript
PHP
MySQL
Graphics
Adobe Photoshop
Macromedia Fireworks
In addition I have experience creating websites with the following features:
-
User Authentication
Allows you to password protect certain parts of your website.
- Content Management
Allows you to make updates yourself, through the website using simple forms in a
protected area of your site. No need to learn how websites work.
- News System with Comments
Database driven news articles can be dynamically sorted and displayed in any order.
Visitors can write and view comments about each news article, as seen by many news websites.
- Contact Forms
By using a contact form you can specify exactly the type of information you need from
your customers. Fields can either be optional or mandatory.
- Image Gallery
An image gallery can showcase a number of thumbnail images any of which can be expanded
to a larger view. Images can also be sorted into sub-galleries of similar images.
- Polls & Voting
Allows visitors to your site to cast their vote on the subject of your choice. Results
display the most popular opinion, the total number of votes and how many votes each
category received.
- Forums
Forums can be private or public, and allow people to leave messages or post replies to
someone else's message.
- Visitor Statistics
Stats allow you to keep track of the number of visitors visiting your site. You can see
exactly who is visiting your site, and when, as well as where they are from, what OS and
resolution they are running and much more. Stats also show which are your most popular
pages, and the most popular times of the week / month / year.
If there is a feature you would like to see in your website but it is not listed here
contact me and ask. Chances are I will be able to add it.
