WHY WORK WITH ME?
One stop shop ... With experience in web design, programming, and graphic design, I can perform the various tasks needed to create a successful site. Many larger shops simply split these into three separate teams.
Attention to you ... I only carry one (maybe two) projects at a time, which means you will receive my undivided attention. You can expect fast response times and high quality work.
Cost effective ... I design high quality, professional websites at the competitive rate of $25/hour. The end cost will obviously depend on site size and design complexity. (To give you an idea, the design of this site from start to finish took about 40 hours).
WEB DESIGN
Designing a website is a delicate process requiring a technical mind and a designer's eye. And while just about anyone can use FrontPage to throw a website on the Internet, you want a finished product that leaves a lasting impression with your target audience (and you probably want that impression to be positive).
To help you meet your objectives, I can handle all aspects of your website's construction. I strive to ensure each site I create is beautiful and user friendly. I also account for W3C XHTML and CSS standards, accessibility, browser compatibility, and search engine optimization (SEO). I can also provide these services for existing websites if you just want to make sure your site is up to par. Here is a list of web design services I provide:
- Original website design
- Content organization
- Re-design of existing sites
- Website templates
- XHTML/CSS conversion of a graphical design
- Standards, accessibility, compatibility, and SEO consultation
- HTML E-mail Marketing
WEB DEVELOPMENT
As I said, I save most of my development and programming for professional work. Usually these are very large and time-consuming projects, which require deep involvement and a long term commitment.
So I'll leave those ones for the big fish, but I can create light web applications and do client-side scripting based on your requests. If you have a project you're looking to get done (like a web form or a shopping cart), don't hesitate to contact me, and I'll let you know if it looks like something we can work together on.
GRAPHIC DESIGN
Ok, I'm a web designer first, but I've been working with graphics for even longer. I design plenty of original graphics for my sites, and I always love opportunities to design something new.
If you need a logo designed, let me know and I can work up some possibilities of what it might look like. Then we'll work on it until you're happy. Or if you need any kind of stationary created (business cards, letterheads, invitations, etc), I can help out with that too.
