Website Design and Development
I have experience planning website content, structure, and layout. I am knowledgeable of web usibility practices and search engine optimization practices. My skills include designing web page wireframes and creating web graphics in Photoshop; writing HTML and CSS code; and setting up domains and hosting. I am also experienced building sites using the WordPress platform (self-hosted and on WordPress.com). Building sites on the WordPress platform allows me to offer powerful features like blogs, contact forms, and a user-friendly content management system for a very reasonable price. Some examples of my web design and development work are listed below.
Bethel Bible Church
I built the site on WordPress and designed a totally custom theme. The site includes many pages, a blog, integration with ServiceU event software, and a content management system for sermon audio and series information.

I recommend Bluehost for web hosting. I am also an affiliate for Bluehost, that is, they pay me a commission for every new customer I refer to them. But, even if they didn't, I would still use them and recommend them because they are awesome! Their tech support is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and patient and their control panel is easy to use. Also, I've been pretty pleased with their server performance and up time, especially considering their low price point.
