About me, Alan
Before working in the digital industry, I was a registered nurse in the UK armed forces. While doing this, I decided to learn a new skill which was web design and online marketing. I continued for many years and eventually returned to formal education to study the T-levels.
My digital career started around 2010 when I worked in the affiliate marketing space. A few years later, I worked for digital marketing companies as an SEO specialist, helping clients reach top positions in search results.
In the last couple of years, I’ve chosen to work only in a freelance capacity supporting small and start up businesses. I prefer working with smaller websites and enjoy helping grass roots businesses and causes. My focus is on helping people create digital assets with ease and to spend more time with their family.

Freelance web designer for your local business
I provide websites for small and start up businesses, helping you present your services clearly and connect with customers.
Sites are affordable, SEO friendly, and owner editable, so you can change text and images yourself.
Website maintenance and ongoing support are available if you prefer someone to keep things updated for you.
Get in touch to see if we are a good fit and to talk through your ideas. I keep my caseload small so I can give each project proper attention.
I also provide local photo scanning in Widnes, turning printed memories into digital copies.
