The Work I Do

I provide a full menu of services that can take you all the way from an idea scribbled on a napkin to the launch of your new website.

Every project is different, so each project has a slightly different process. However, I generally follow some common steps for many of my projects:

Wireframes / Conceptual
This is one of the most exciting parts of any project. This is where we get to discuss the functionality of your application or website and actually plan how it is going to work! I create loose wireframes or sketches to give us a plan for the rest of the project. At this point, sometimes (budget/time permitting) we can get early feedback from potential users about early usability issues.

Design
At this point, I take the wireframes and actually create some visual mockups using Photoshop. This is the point where I start working on typography, colors, look and feel, etc.

Website design is a careful balance between aesthetics and usability. It has to look nice, but it also has to be intuitive for your visitors. If they cannot find what they are looking for, they will leave. I build web sites that are usable, reliable, secure, and pleasing to the eye.

Code
Now that we have settled on a visual design that you love, it is time to make it happen. I code the mockup into semantic XHTML and CSS.

My websites are built on a foundation of web standards — valid, structured code to produce pages that will look great in modern browsers yet are still functional and useable on older ones. Utilizing web standards leads to real results:

• Decreased bandwidth and server space
• Improved accessibility to all browsers and devices (including those with disabilities)
• Increased separation of presentation layer code from content
• Simplified updating of look and feel
• Faster page loading
• Lower costs

I am also available to provide all my services as contract work for other web companies. Please contact me to discuss your project needs.

My Other Services

In addition to my key services mentioned above I am also able to provide the following services on request. Prices for these services are available only on application.

• Domain name registration
• Web hosting
• Photography
• Copywriting

My (flat) Rates

I want you to know exactly how much you will spend. This way you can feel more secure because:

• the bill won’t be higher than you expected
• It makes me more productive — I am encouraged to complete the project on time or sooner
• I don’t waste time counting hours
