Web Design

My name is Julian Maddock.
In the 1980's I trained in Fortran, COBOL, C and Modula-2 on mainframes and PC's, writing
mainly business accounting software. This led naturally to a fascination with the Web and web
design. I value it's democracy and availability.
In addition to what I offer here, I work freelance in spirituality.

Web Design
Having web presence can be a painless process. Results can been seen quickly.
I am particularly interested in offering my website design skills and experience to churches and other spiritual/religious organisations. I bring an understanding of spirituality together with a knowledge of computers.
My approach is to design with W3C web standards using XHTML, CSS and JavaScript. In practice this means that making additions and changes to a website is relatively quick and easy. I try to follow accessibility guidelines so that websites will be accessible to the greatest number of users, such as those with disabilities or who use hand-held devices, and for a variety of browsers and operating system platforms.
Some ways I can help:
- explore with you what you want to convey or express on your website and how to get this across most clearly, persuasively and authentically;
- consult with you on the style and structure of your site;
- write some draft web pages that can be seen ‘offline’;
- take digital pictures, or use your own, to include in the site;
- acquire a web address and hosting;
- publish your pages on the World Wide Web;
- maintain the site with additions and changes;
- provide training.
