Kevin Rapley’s Summary

As a digital media obsessive I read extensively on the area and my personal expertise are in designing and building accessible user interfaces for websites and online solutions. Specifically software and technologies I am savvy with are Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, (X)HTML, XML, CSS and Google Analytics. With strong implementation of semantically architectured websites and understanding of what creates a successful brand I can provide a full solution to an online digital venture. Once a website is live I am then able to analyse Google Analytics results to a high aptitude in order to respond to results and improve the experience for visitors to that website.

Kevin Rapley’s Specialties:

branding and identity, semantic website architecture, user interface design, search engine optimisation, web development, digital communications, flash animation, creative thinking

DigiKev is a digital media, website design and build outfit. Digital media is interactive and thrives on conversations. I engineer this ability and allow people to converse in a digital space. This type of capability of starting online conversations and social networking has been coined the term Web 2.0. For the rest of us it is just a common sense approach to using the technology for business, social and networking purposes.
