Design does not only mean the look of a web site. Site design refers to all the elements that make up the whole user experience resulting in a professional image that a well planned and intuitive site projects. How your company is perceived is decided within the first few seconds. It's my job to make every one of those seconds count.
A unique service i offer is to take existing sites and applications and identify, then solve a whole range of issues. These can range from user experience to general site and database performance. Many of my clients originally approached me to improve areas of their site. However, through repeat work i am glad to say that several years later they have remained as clients.
Latest trends in development often dictate how a site is planned and built. This may be an ok approach, but what happens when after 12 months, that "cool" gimmick starts to look dated? Latest web development technologies have their place, the key is to identify those places and implement only if the visitor will benefit in some way.
For many agencies and companies i have and continue to provide a supportive role when workload gets too much, or cover for when members of staff are away on holiday. This can be managed on an ad-hoc basis and can be arranged at short notice. Need an extra pair "o" mitts?
There was a time when everything had to be bespoke, Content management systems, E-commerce systems, CRM and event calendars to name a few. Thanks to the development community you now have the choice of hundreds if not thousands of community driven applications covering a whole gamut of tasks, from timesheet management to photo sharing to managing your mp3 collection. I can take these systems, apply a unique design and make any adjustments to suit your requirements.
