Below are some web sites I have done. Some are my own complete programming and design, others are collaborations with independent contractors I have used over the past year or so. Rather than include a slideshow or JPG images of designs, I felt it would be better to offer a portfolio with something a little more tangible: real links to real, completed sites. I feel that having a good web site is a vital part of any business. Often times, it is our first impression and point of contact with new clients. My customers enjoy my quick turnaround and laid back yet professional approach to building a web site.
Due to my increasing workload in this area, I now outsource some of my coding to graphic design specialists or web programmers. I use local people with a very high level of skill and personally supervise and troubleshoot each project. Our work is 100% custom and hand-coded. We do not use templates or plug-and-play content systems which are difficult to troubleshoot down the road. We make completely scalable, efficient, search optimized sites using the most common and easy to transfer web languages such as PHP, XHTML,CSS, and Flash. ASP.net programming is also available for those with the need for it. We make content managment systems so you can easily update and add material to your web site. We also offer E-commerce, content writing, logo design and printed materials.
The steps are:
I now offer low cost reliable hosting on my own Linux-based server and prefer to host the sites that I work on for maximum accessibility and compatibility. Nightly backups of your websites are made automatically. Click the links below to see some of our work.
