James Marriott’s Summary

I have been designing / developing websites as a serious endeavour for approximately six years, working both as a freelancer and on a full time employed basis. I have become very proficient in HTML, CSS, PHP and MySQL with additional skills in AJAX and XML (required especially for RSS feeds).

Fully capable of designing and developing bespoke e-commerce, blog and forum sites with CMS / Admin areas as well as customisation of existing systems including Joomla and Wordpress.

I am familiar with W3C standards, priding myself on being able to write standards compliant HTML and CSS that validates.
Highly skilled in SEO (search Engine Optimisation) and am experienced in PPC (pay-per-click) campaign management such as Google’s AdWords and AdSense.

I always design in code, mostly using Dreamweaver for its convenience although where required I am comfortable making on-the-fly changes in Notepad in conjunction with 3rd party FTP programs and am completely self taught.
