Here is how I do it.
Web Development
XHTML, CSS, ECMAScript, PHP, MySQL, Ruby On Rails
All of my websites are hand-coded, web standards compliant, accessible, and cross-browser compatible. Built with a focus on separating content from presentation, your online presence is ready to adapt to change. I also develop user-friendly content management systems for clients wanting to maintain their own website.
Web Design
CSS, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash
I draw from my skills in graphic design, layout, color, and typography to communicate ideas, themes, and expressions on the web. A solid site architecture and user interface is crucial to the usability of any website. I understand how these elements fit together to create a highly cohesive website and a memorable user experience.
Web Hosting
DreamHost, Google Apps, Basecamp
Every website needs a home. I proudly host my websites with DreamHost, a carbon-neutral hosting company. Each account includes unlimited Gmail accounts (@yourdomain.com), plenty of storage space, guaranteed 99.9% uptime, and private domain registration. I also provide my clients with access to Basecamp, a powerful web-based collaboration tool.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Semantic Markup, Google Analytics
Many factors combine to determine how a website ranks with various search engines. A few main contributors are good content, semantic markup, and trading links with similar web resources. I design websites that are ready to move up in the rankings. I also integrate Google Analytics, making it easy to improve your results online.
