Web Design and Development

I design primarily for the screen. A major aspect to this involves designing for different screen sizes - called "responsive web design". I code using modern web technologies such as HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript and ensure that the code is optimised to load quickly on all devices.

Content Management (CMS)

The ability to update you own website is very important. Equally important is being able to update and add content without breaking the design. Therefore it is important to set up a website template that integrates properly with the CMS. Providing training on using a CMS ensures your website continues to work correctly and stay up to date.

Content / SEO / Social Media

Content is the most important aspect to any website. Content considerations involve how well it reads to your audience, how well it works for search engines and how easy it is to share on social media platforms.

Nike web app projects

Nike Event Web Apps

Nike Air Max 2017 Promotion

  • iPad web app

  • Video file upload
  • HTML email sent with attachment

Nike Air Max 2017 Promotion

During a two day promotional event at JD Sports Oxford Street customers were invited to have a short video made of them wearing the new Air Max trainers. The web app assisted the process by first collecting and storing the customer’s details. After the digital operative had processed the video file they were then able to quickly search for a customer, upload their video and send an email with the video file attached. All this happened while the customer was in store trying on a pair of Nike Air Max trainers.

Nike Mag Charity Promotion

MowApp - Bespoke iPhone app

The MowApp is designed for use by Morgan Oates’ garden maintenance team. The team visit several gardens in a day and have to log the tasks that they complete at each location. Previously this was all done on paper which was an inefficient process for the maintenance team as well as the accounts department. The app notifies the client by email as soon as a job is completed. All completed jobs are logged in a spreadsheet.

Ski 2 Freedom

Website and SEO

  • Content rich and search engine friendly
  • Responsive web design
  • CMS training
  • Ongoing development

Website and SEO

I have worked for the Ski 2 Freedom Foundation since its inception in 2007. In 2016 I redeveloped the entire website as the content had evolved and grown to such an extent that it was becoming difficult to manage. Rebuilding it vastly improved the ability of the charity to add and share useful information to its beneficiaries. The volume of content and means the site performs very well in search engines under a range of search terms.

Ski 2 TV - Video marketing

  • Video production
  • Content tagging to display on multiple pages on the website
  • Easy sharing for Facebook promotion

Ski 2 TV - Video marketing strategy

In 2015 the charity tasked me with raising their social media profile. I delivered a strategy of producing two minute video edits which are promoted on Ski 2 Freedom’s social media channels and displayed on relevant pages throughout the website.

Accessibility

  • Switch accessibility option
  • Colour contrast, pause animations
  • Video captioning
  • Open dyslexic font
  • User's choice stored using HTML5 local storage

Accessibility

Ski 2 Freedom aims to assist all types of disability so it was important that the website cater for accessibility issues. Best practice coding for accessibility is built into the side but I also built in extra features to aid readability. There is also an option to use the Open Dyslexic font on the site. This font was designed to aid readability for some dyslexic people. Using the font in combination with a different colour contrast background provides more options, which is important as not everyone has the same issue when it comes to accessibility.

Fifth Word Theatre

  • Responsive web design
  • One page project sites
  • Kirby CMS
  • Training

Fifthword Theatre required two separate sites for both sides of their business - theatre and community based projects. The same template is used for both sites and both run on Kirby CMS making it easy to manage and update both sites simultaneously.

An iPad micro site was required for one of their community based projects and used on site as in interactive learning tool.

Fifthword ran a playwriting competition which required anonymous submissions. This was managed through a one page website that allowed entries to be uploaded and stored without the judges knowing the name of the entrant.
