I run quite a lot of web sites for various organisations and people, and occasionally help people set up their own web sites. This is not a major commercial operation at all, but if you want a reasonably straightforward site designed and hosted, or you want a few tips on how to do your own, email me and I'll see if I can help.
My preference is to work with hand-coded HTML.
Here are some sites I designed, or help the owners set up
|
Fendragon the ceilidh band Mary and I play in. |
Hosted by Dave Holland who set up the original web site. I run it now because I keep track of bookings, but when I took it over I redesigned the site and added lots more material, especially pictures. All in PHP/HTML. |
| Mayflower Folk Club | I host this site in the web space provided by my ISP. The site design was inherited from the original and I haven't changed it much. Only the main and programme pages are kept more or less up to date. Pure HTML, not very efficient or consistent. |
| Mary Humphreys and Anahata | my main showcase site, regularly maintained. PHP used to generate HTML locally, which is then uploaded to the ISP site. There's a couple of server-side scripted pages too (look at the Paypal CD purchase page) |
| Paul Scourfield | I helped Paul set up the first version of this web site, showed him basic HTML and how to upload pages. It's entirely his own work now! He occasionally emails me for free advice. |
| Suffolk Folk |
I took over the old Suffolk Folk web site, completely
redesigned it keeping the graphic logo and the green
nagivation tabs (though they are implemented differently now),
splitting it into several pages where there was previously too
much material all on one page. PHP/HTML generated locally and uploaded as all static HTML. Regularly maintained. I also run other IT stuff for Suffolk Folk, such as the email system which passes everything though my own server at home to get good spam filtering. |

Bill Whaley and
Dave Fletcher |
I showed Dave how to do simple HTML and how to upload pages, and he's never looked back. A bit of email advice on getting a domain name and pointing it to their page - sorted! |
| Towan Cottage |
Two friends run this holiday cottage in Cornwall. Alan has his
own web space but isn't into HTML much: all he has to upload is
the bookings spreadheet (exported to HTML) which I link in as an
<iframe> element. Bookings info always up to
date; I don't have to do anything!
|
| Hosepipe Band | Another one where I spent an afternoon with the owner showing him how to create a simple HTML page and upload it and graphics. He's been maintaining it ever since. |
