  (Internet industry)

  January 2005 — Present (4 years 11 months)

  I offer specialised consulting and subcontracting for companies wishing to get into the Web 2.0 generation of solutions as well as for small businesses looking for their first simple, easy, fast and reliable website with no hefty costs. I venture into projects professionally and experienced, from the get-go I provide a top quality service with understanding of what would be the best for the project.
  
  For small businesses looking for a website, I must emphasise that best does not mean the most expensive and custom built solution that will never help you and take months to build wasting your time and money, but rather a solution that will be the most powerful and full-fulling of your needs and budget giving you the results you require, once your business has gotten that boost it craves you can always come back for more solutions that will push your business that little bit further. You never have to feel concerned or worried as it is my job to make sure everything goes as smooth as possible.
  
  For those looking for a sub contractor or consultant, it will even feel like I am part of your experienced team. I will provide weekly status reports with feedback on how the project is going with meetings able to be held locally in person, or remotely via skype. I endeavour to make sure the solution will be the best for your projects needs, maintainable and reliable. What sets me apart is the quality of my solutions, I ensure I'm up to date with the latest trends and technologies, not just by reading blogs about them but by performing custom research and development to evaluate whether they are indeed useful. This provides me with the knowledge and experience of knowing which collection of technologies from the ever growing range will be the most suitable solution for the project having that impact you desire while staying within the budget and time frame.
