Design Principles
Designed and developed to be as simple as possible, my sites conform to all relevant standards, as specified by the W3C including xhtml, css, xml, and rss.
By separating design, structural and data elements, the sites are not only easily updatable, but versatile across different platforms.
By offering clients intuative, tailored content management systems, they don't need to rely on me for updating their website content. If clients decide that a fresher look and feel is needed, the design elements can be completely changed without effecting the content.

Please try to be reasonably specific in terms of what you require as just asking, "How much is a web-site", is like asking how long is a piece of string.
- What's the site for?
- Have you seen anything you like?
- Who is your audience?
- Would you like to edit and update the content yourself?
- Have you registered a domain name yet?
