WordPress sites

Of course the site you’re looking at is a good example of a WordPress site. But different projects have different needs; and WordPress isn’t just for blogs. Here’s a selection of sites I’ve worked on: for small businesses, festivals, musicians, personal projects and more…

Agency work

johngrooms.org.uk screenshotI’ve worked with many leading web agencies, including Splendid, Erasmus, Public Life, Engage Group, No Diamonds and tmg. Many a finely crafted website I’ve created in this situation has been gobbled up through the end client being, say, a government department which has been revamped or downsized before the project’s finished.

One site in particular deserves being singled out (see the screenshot to the right). I worked closely with Public Life on the website for John Grooms, a housing association for disabled people. We wanted to show that fully accessible websites can be slick and good-looking, too. From the layouts created by their designer, and informed by Public Life’s own careful user testing, I developed the working XHTML and CSS. The site won the Charity & Public Service Website of the Year award in 2005. Johns Grooms has also undergone organisational overhaul that’s taken the site I worked on from the web, but I was chuffed with the award.

Here’s a few other sites I’ve done with agencies:
