Brian Vuyk’s Summary

I run my own Web Development and Marketing business through which I develop new websites, applications. I also provide consulting services in Drupal, search engine optimization (SEO) services, and custom application programming.

With my web development, I specialize in the Drupal content management system (CMS), although I perform custom programming in PHP or Ruby on Rails on projects where Drupal is not necessarily a good fit.
