About Me

I have over 20 years of experience in full-stack web application development.
I offer my services as a coder for hire to work with businesses of all sizes including start-ups, creative agencies, designers and other freelancers

What is a full stack developer ?

On the front-end, the full stack web developer uses a combination of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build everything a user sees and interacts with on a website. On the back-end they develop the application, server, and database that make up the foundational structure of a website.

Web Applications

Many design agencies will claim to be web developers but actually have very little if any coding experience. They will be able to try and push you to a WordPress based solution which will mean they use plugins rather than code. These solutions tend to be very hard to maintain, buggy and very, very slow. I am an actual developer and can write you software that is customized and modelled around your business - a digital twin for your business.

Shopify Stores

I can also construct an ecommerce store for your business on the Shopify platform. The Shopify platform has many exceptional features that make it ideal for hosting your online store - inventory Management, paypal support, apple pay, integrated SEO, sell online & instore capability, shipping rates, define discounts, powerful analytics, abandoned cart facility & blogs.

WordPress/Woocommerce migration

Do you have a WordPress/Woocommerce based online store ? Is it very slow and unreliable ? Is the administrator interface confusing and unintuitive ? You should move to the Shopify platform instead. It is fast and reliable and the administration panel is simple to use and clear.

I provide a migration service to move your woocommerce store to the Shopify platform, retaining your Products, Orders, Customers & Blogs.

Best Practice

I develop using modern technologies and follow industry best practices to ensure you won't be left behind.

Lower TCO

My code is reusable & adaptable to make maintenance and future additions easier and less costly.

Who I work with

I work with a wide range of clients, from small one man bands, artists, galleries, small businesses, right up to local government agencies.

Shopify

I can create you a powerful, fast Shopify store allowing you to sell your products online. If you have a slow, unreliable WordPress/Woocommerce store I can migrate it to the Shopify platform where you will see a world of difference.

Rescue Services

I also provide rescue services and technical support for projects that have failed to be delivered by other web developers, and have helped many businesses get their web development projects back on track and launched to a high standard.

I can provide cloud planning and implementation services to help you navigate your journey into the cloud. As a Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer, I am an expert in Microsoft Azure and can assist you with AppServices, Storage & Security.
