This website has been designed and developed for CD Property and Gardening Services from the ground up to promote this newly established company.

The design is simple and effective, and utilises HTML 5 and CSS 3. However, the structure of the website and design can still be viewed in older browsers such as Internet Explorer 8 and 7.

For this client, I designed a logo for use on their letterheads, leaflets and branding on the side of their fleet of vehicles. The logo was designed in conjunction with the clients vision, and tailored to meet their expectations.

This advert was specifically designed at the request of Denis Houston and Andy France.

The advert was designed for use on a advertising trailer and to promote the company during the St.Patricks Day Parade in Birmingham.

The advert has proven successful, generating new customer interest in the company.

These adverts were specifically designed by me for a programme which was used during a Small Heath Boxing Club show.

These adverts were designed meeting the needs of the specific sponsors. The adverts were also designed to fit on to an A5 sized programme using matt paper.

The adverts have proven to be successful, generating extra customer interest in these companies.

This trailer advert measured 10ft x 10ft, and was first used during the St.Patricks Day Parade in Birmingham, March 2011.

The advert is designed in to three strips. This is so that the trailer can be used again but with different adverts. For example, the middle strip can be removed and replaced with another strip to advertise something else.

The advertisement proved a huge success during the parade.

An E-Commerce site designed and developed by me while working for another company. The site specialises in selling underwear and other clothing items in the UK. The site was built upon the Magento PHP framework, and uses the conventional HTML 4 and CSS 2 framework. The benefit of using the Magento framework means that it includes an invoice system, and stock management system. This makes the task of managing stock and keeping track of orders is made simpler.

The design of the site has proven largely successful. The design utilises elements of the “Web 2.0″ style (such as stripes and call to action images).

The website is nearly 2 years old, so some anomalies are to be expected when viewing the site in newer browsers.

This is my website, developed using WordPress 3, HTML 5 and CSS 3. It also uses JQuery on some aspects of the website, such as the homepage and wherever images are displayed.

This website is vitally important to me. It’s my business card, it’s my shop front, it’s also my soapbox. It allows me to write articles and upload content for the rest of the internet to view. It also acts as a portfolio for potential customers to view my previous work.

It is also built to be very SEO friendly, so it will achieve high rankings on Google and other search engines.
