Effective Web Site Design

I specialize in designing and building effective web sites for small businesses and not-for-profit organizations around the Dorset/Devon/Somerset borders.

Once upon a time, I was a UK-certified usability consultant —expert in the design, layout, and look & feel of the user interface on computer systems—so find myself casting a critical eye over many web sites. Too many sites are difficult to use and often reflect the mindset of the designer rather than you, the user.

My Approach to designing and building your website ensures that your needs and wants are foremost. For example, it always begins with a face-to-face meeting to explore and detail the site's objectives, style and tone, and type of use, etc. for an effective website experience. This specification then forms the basis for the design and construction of your website. You are consulted throughout the design stage on a number of layouts and storyboards for you to choose the most appropriate; these will become your custom website!

I'm committed to providing you with high quality, appropriate, and effective solutions.
