I like to design clean websites that balance functionality and visual aesthetics. Focusing on responsive design, I ensure your website will look great on any device by adapting to the screen size and resolution.
Website Development
I've always enjoyed writing code and problem solving the most. A specialist developer in both frontend browser technologies, making things look pretty and interactive, while also building a strong knowledge and wide range of experience at the backend with server based technologies such as PHP and Node.js. I can build completely custom web applications to highest coding standards from W3C to PSR. Also utilising the powers of open source software tailored to your business needs and goals.

specalist with lots of experience building web shops with open source shopping carts such as: Opencart, Magento, Prestashop, Shopify, WooCommerce. I'm able to fully customise the store to increase your productivity and sell more. This has ranged from order/product management, custom payment/shipping api integration, comprehensive analytics to calculate checkout abandonment I have been building & selling add-on plugins for these where they have become some of the most popular commercially purchased plugins and used on 1000s of store all around the world.

Bespoke applications are usually built on top of an open source libraries such as Zend Framework, Laravel, Symfony all with less built into features but more control for a tailored software to make working with it easier for you. Specialise in building relation databases and user interface that fits your requirements.
Enterprise level Shared and Private Hosting
that's scalable cloud computing allowing your website to up scale when your website needs it under high load/traffic. I maintain a local website server that's update with the latest software and performance optimisation, great for local businesses in Yorkshire and the UK. Or I can setup and configure: a virtual or dedicated private server, an elastic amazon web server, or another shared web hosting usually with cpanel or similar. Web hosting is configured and tailor exactly to your needs be this for automated email replying, backups, monitoring, custom E-Mail servers or cloud setup with office365, google web apps, zoho mail. If it's possible I can learn how.
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)
websites that naturally rank well. I do this by building a structure website, that is fully compliant and to highest standards. Helping boost your SEO rankings further with rich snippets for reviews, products, events etc in the search results. This helps search engines better understand your content and stand out in search results.
Open Source Software & Commercially Purchased Themes/Plugins
gives you an off-the-shelf solution that can suits most small websites but it can sometimes be bloated with extra features that you don't need slowing things down needing a developer to try speeding up and customising. Also with they do need to be kept updated more regularly then a custom built software because any security bugs are usually publicised giving easy access to a hacker if your website is out dated.

building a seperate AMP website provides extermely fast loading, improve search engine ranking and visibility. Mobile browsing has become so popular and important to online business that a responsive site is not always best especially if it's a resource heavy. Find out more
