Gardiner Mini Travel

This website was previously built with Dreamweaver as static site, now it has been converted to WordPress.
For this website I have deployed TopStyle as CSS editor, Adobe Fireworks for the graphic banner and some minor jobs. As mentioned in a previous blog post I use intensively two WordPress frameworks for my web projects, Studiopress Genesis and iThemes Builder. This site has been made with iThemes Builder.

Chic & Elegant

Linda and Eric Hurford contacted me to build a new web site for their Bridal Wear shop Chic & Elegant based in Swansea city center. I was more than pleased to be of help.

For this web site I have deployed TopStyle that in my opinion is one of the best CSS editor around for Windows users and than Adobe Fireworks for all graphics another fantastic piece of software that is better than Photoshop when you only need work with web graphics. The web site is fully CMS driven by WordPress, note the news page that actually is a blog.

Website update: Chic & Elegant, Swansea

I have just completed a major upgrade for a wedding shop website, Chic & Elegant. It is a very busy shop about wedding dresses with many happy customers all over Wales.

Linda Hurford the business owner has followed my advice to do a re-design of her already very successful website.

Visit the site here: http://chicandelegant.co.uk

The new site is built on the Studiopress Genesis Framework, I think that I can now seriously work on the back-end to setup an effective search engines optimization job since the SEO options provided by this WordPress framework are fantastic.

Website re-design

I have completed a re-design of my website. It is built on the Studiopress Genesis Framework. I am very happy to have adopted this solution for building client websites. The Genesis framework bring many benefit to the end user, the most important one is that it is search engine optimized. Quoting their website:

Google loves WordPress and most blogs do well in the search engines, but our WordPress themes are fully search engine optimized, making them that much better. The Genesis Theme Framework has an SEO Settings page, as well as inline SEO Inline Options, which give even more control of varying elements of search engine optimization”.
