    elderlyactivities.co.uk: Concept, Web Design and WordPress Theme Development

    Bupa, a customer of The Consortium, kindly gave us lots of activities ideas they had collected from their care homes. We decided it would be a good idea to use them as a free resource that we would give away online, helping attract links and start the development of an online community for carers, looking for materials to help them in their jobs.

    We had already done a lot of research on keywords in this area and found to our surprise that the domain name elderlyactivities.co.uk (based on a top keyword) was available. In two days I had the website online, having found the domain name, designed the website around the content and built the WordPress theme.

    Shareandinspire: A forum built on WordPress

    I designed and built this website from start to finish from logo to forum build. Initially the brief was to build a blog for early years practitioners, to help promote our early years websites and to learn more about our customers’ needs. However, after I had completed the website I was told to make it more like a forum; so I used a WordPress plugin and changed the structure of the website making it function as a simple forum.

    Tru-Green: Static XHTML/CSS Website Design

    This is an example of a simple static website I built for the Tru-Green brand, a green envelope producer based in India. I used several layered Photoshop brushes to create a slightly crumpled envelope look for the background of the website. I designed and built the whole website from start to finish in one working day.

    Early Years At Home: Logo Design and Web Design

    I was asked to design a Business to Consumer website for ‘at home early years practitioners’. I designed the logo and the website for an external web development team to use on an eCommerce platform they had previously created. My design was restricted slightly by the need to make it compatible with the eCommerce platform.

    The company were extremely happy with the result and the quick turn around. They went with the first design I produced.
