Website Design

I prefer to work alongside customers so they can choose the colours, images and text as we go along.

Costs for a simple site woold be from £100 more complex sites would typically cost £4-600.00.

Sample 1
This site newlynholidaycottage.co.uk is a simple site designed to give information to prospective customers.
It involved using the customer's own text and and my own images.
The site has a pop-up link to an external map, includes an automated email link and is optimised for search engines.

The maximum cost for a similar site would be £175.00 plus a free long weekend!




Sample 2
Recently I helped a local artist Tansy Rice Caley develop her site.
Tansy already had a selection of images on her computer and had an idea of how she wanted the site to look.
I was involved with
  1. Writing the code in as few lines as possible to enable speedy loading.
  2. Resizing the images
  3. Helping choose the colours for backgrounds, text, borders etc
  4. Making the site search engine friendly.
Naturally Tansy chose all the fonts and colours after I showed her what was available.

Tansy will now be able to change colours, images etc whenever she wants.




Sample 3
This next site was much more complex. It was developed with Holsworthy Museum for HMSTetcott.com.
It involved:
  1. Protected images
  2. Protected code
  3. Visitor book
  4. PHP programming (Click here for info)
  5. Links within images (Click here for sample)



Sample 4
This next site was developed for Okehampton Camera Club of which I am an active member. OkehamptonCameraClub.co.ok

  1. Members own pages

Sample 5
