Hey there, I'm Jonathan, a freelance digital consultant, specialising in UX/UI Design.
I help companies design and develop beautifully simple user interfaces. I work with a huge variety of clients including companies like, Smith & Nephew, KLM, Durex and the National Aids trust.
Recently I’ve come to the conclusion that I simply don’t spend enough time on website usability. Whilst I know a lot about the subject and understand it’s importance, I often fail to implement some of the most basic of usability best practices. To try and beat this, I’ve created a visual aid called, ‘Cliftwalker’s Website Usability Checklist’.
Last year I created a page to list all the Front End Developer tools that I’ve come across as a Front End Developer. As this page attracted quite a bit of attention, I decided to create a mini site to house all of these tools, so that other people can see and filter them by their own interests. If you head over to www.frontendwebtools.com you can see the big list.
Since I started as a freelance Front End Developer I have created a huge number of website designs. Sometimes the designs that I really like (and hope a client will use) don’t get used in the final website. So, this page is dedicated to all the designs that you might not be able to find live somewhere online. These are either designs that the client didn’t go with or from side projects that I’ve not completed just yet.
I’ve now finished working on my free minimal responsive theme for Perch CMS. The first thing to say is that I call it a “Theme” but as I mentioned in Part 1, perch doesn’t really offer theme support so what I’m really doing here is just talking you through how you can apply this design into the Perch CMS framework. I’m going to make the assumption that you have already purchased a Perch license and have it installed on the server you wish to run it from.
Today, the market is saturated with the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to Website Designers and Developers, so how do you find the good ones? As a Website Designer myself I thought I’d use my knowledge of the market to provide some tips to help people find the right Web Designer for their project…
I’ve finally completed my first free eBook, focussed on helping small businesses to create more effective websites. Whether you’re fairly new to web design or a small business wondering how you can improve your website, this short eBook is definitely worth a read…
