THE HOME OF GREAT WEBSITE DESIGN & DELIVERY
I started my long-standing love of website design and development way back in 2008 soon after we had returned from our Gap Year after taking early retirement. I had just spent circa 40 years in IT from lowly computer operator to senior consultant and all points in between. My first experience of website design was using some seriously old editing technology (GraphicCorp's website design tool - now well and truly redundant) I used this to document our Gap Year down under and then when we travelled from one side of Canada to the other. Once this died, I signed up with Moonfruit (the then leading independent website design and development tool provider). This coincided with my wife starting her small craft business and her winning Theo Paphitis's Small Business Sunday (SBS) so my first website design and development with this new technology was her Girls Designer Clothes biz site. Having cut my teeth on that I redeveloped the Gap Year & Canada sites. My skillset in website design and development was increasing. In 2012 having finally bought our own motorhome I created the 1st edition of our motorhome-travels blog to give hints and tips for other homers and document our travels. I then created 2 further sites taking much of the learning I had already got in website design into the sites of our long holidays (mostly in hired motorhomes) in 2013 & 2017. So far, I have written 12 sites since retiring plus in all humility I do have some understanding of the BIG PICTURE with respect to (wrt) IT and computing after a lifetime in the industry. In December 2021 Yell who owned Moonfruit decided to close it down (it was past its prime as heavily wedded to the antiquated flash technology) and they much against my wishes migrated (badly) all my sites to WIX (a much better development environment) so I am now slowly but surely redoing all 12 sites (mostly from scratch) anyhow now that I am fully retired (I did go back to do some more consultancy work after my initial retirement for probably about a year on and off) and have a passion to help smaller businesses by providing a service that hopefully is somewhat scaled down from the charges (and subscription fees for ongoing maintenance that the big players charge)
If I am selected as your website designer online, I would also carefully look at your Search Engine Optimisation (SEO), which is a subject I am starting to understand in greater detail. Good website design must show examples and be readily found online. There is a whole page devoted to that on this website and via the BLOGS. I feature on many lists of "hire a website designer UK", but my focus is mostly in the East Midlands, namely Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire. KeefH Web Designs is a trusted website design company, and I am proud of my WIX partner awards.
