Front End Web Development
Front End Web Development is the markup and code required to make a website display correctly. Front end web development uses files (or assets) from web design. Languages such as Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and Javascript (JS) are commonly used in front end web development. Cross-browser testing is a crucial aspect, as different platforms and different browsers render websites differently, and this must be compensated for.
Website Design
Website design involves the visual aesthetics of the website without touching code, or even a web browser. Web design focuses on the look and feel of a website. User experience and making the website easy to read and follow is another important factor. Making a website suit the business is a key aspect. Website design mainly depends on the client and target audience, but other factors also have an impact on the website design.
Back End Web Development
Back end web development is the nitty-gritty, behind the scenes code which gives websites advanced functionality. Most websites require a mix of both front and back end development for the finished product. For example, an e-commerce store may use front-end web development for layout, but might also use a back-end system to add new items to the store or change prices of an item. I use "PHP Hypertext Preparser" (PHP) for back-end development and MYSQL for databases.
WordPress Integration
WordPress is an extremely popular content management system (CMS) that can be used to easily administrate websites. WordPress allows you to easily add new pages, posts and items to a website without having to touch any code what-so-ever. I can integrate your existing website into WordPress (providing the content is compatible) so that your site is easy to look after in the future.
PSD to HTML Conversion
PSD to HTML conversion means converting a pre-designed website into code. Perfect for designers who don't have time to learn HTML and CSS for the odd website design. I can code a HTML5 or 4 template from a PSD with W3C valid, commented and semantic code that's ready for use as a website.
Web Hosting & Domain Handling
For my clients I offer a free web hosting solution on my very own super-fast server based in the UK. This is great for clients who don't want to worry about finding a suitable server and domain name and then configuring it themselves. NB This hosting isn't best for clients who want complete control of their server as the hosting will be managed.
