Explanation of
What I Do
What you can expect to find here is someone who
knows what it takes to make a successful webpage. My
claim is not to make the most techologically advanced
pages. It is not to make the most feature laden pages.
What I will make you is a set of pages that will not push
current and potential users away. It is so easy to lose
customer to bad design.
Design is the look, layout and feel of a webpage.
It is usability, user-friendliness, and practicality.
Development is the nuts and bolts programming of the
webpage. It is HTML, Java, Javascript, and XML. Anybody
can be trained to be a web developer. It takes creativity
and a sense of the esthetic to be a web designer. Not
everyone has that flair. Not everyone has that artistic
bent.
I cannot draw people to your page. Only you can
draw the people in with your content and the value that
your company will bring to the users of your site. Anyone
who says otherwise is handing you a dream or is a
marketing genius without peer.
So what do I really offer? I offer the creation
of a web site that fulfills the needs of a demanding web
audience. I offer insight, style, common sense, flair,
and pages that are of value to the people who should
find them most useful, your audience. I do the same
work for intranets/extranets.
Many of the design (as in the opposite of the
discussed development) issues remain the same whether
your site is used privately or publicly, such is the
practical nature of design versus development. What
comes natural to a developer/programmer is not
intrinsically the same for the average user or less
technical members of your staff. This hold true for both
intranets/extranets and tradition web sites.
This is what I am offering you that you may not find
elsewhere. Of course this does not include any of the
details of how I will acheive this and what you will need to
give me to design your website. For that information
