nice and simple web templates is what I do. My general goal is to make it as simple as possible and at the same time nice looking and user friendly, whether taking about user or administration interfaces or website templates. I have made about a couple of dozen web templates in the last two years as a freelance web designer. Some of them are simple website templates and some are more or less complex templates for content management systems (CMS) like Wordpress, Drupal and Joomla. I am also familiar with phpBB and SMF forum template creation.
new web templates from the scratch is what makes them unique on the market. I take care of W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) standards and code validation when working with (X)HTML and CSS and I also consider search engine friendly code a very important thing in web development. Besides (X)HTML and CSS I use jQuery, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL in my work, although my focus of interest is mostly on web template design.
websites are characterised by fast loading speed, simple easy to spot and use (intuitive) navigation and quick access to the information located on the website, which is the most important part. I always tend to combine new standards of the user friendly interfaces together with my client's wishes, although many times those wishes are contradictional to those standards. However, finding a common language with clients makes it possible to combine the unique wishes and needs of each client together with the new standards and provide a nice experience to the site visitors and users.
loading websites are a must! Unfortunately, there are still many users with slow internet connections and in order to have the same web experience as all the other users, they need fast loading pages so that the page loading for them will be reasonable at least. Also, the mobile/smart phone users are very often faced with the bandwith problem and/or slower internet connections as well so they require well optimized websites which won't use a lot of bandwith and for wich won't take long to open on mobile devices.
with multiple browers and operative systems is a must for me! Every website/template I make is tested in Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari and Internet Explorer 8 and 9 web browsers. I am also testing my work on Windows 7 and Linux UBUNTU operative systems.
websites are very important and I always pay special attention to this part of the development. I use various methods that help my clients to get a better position on search engines such as Google, Yahoo! etc. Better position on search engines means more visitors and that means more efficiency in, for example, selling products via that website.
is what I consider being a very important part of my work, perhaps even the most important part. Every web related task I do is a step forward in my overall web knowledge or in other words, I learn constantly and that is the main reason why I love web development. There is always something new to learn in this business and that is only possible through the various challenges that clients put in front of me. I also do a lot of practicing and reading in the free time so I learn about web development even when I am not working on the projects.
for web design and development is the thing which pushes me forward and makes me happy to, not only learn new related things but also, deal with any challenge that is put in front of me. I made my first website at the age of 12 and since then I am in love with web design and development.
