Web Design and Development Services

Blissful Web Design has been providing freelance web services to small business owners and other clients since 2006. Now in 2010, I will be devoting more time to other things and less time to doing freelance work.

For current and past clients, I will continue to provide you with the usual quality service. If you have been referred to me or know me (as when I had given you my business card), then let me know what services you need and I will see if I can accomodate.

If you are a completely new client, you can still contact me. And if it is an interesting project, I might consider it. In addition, I have the following resources that may help you find someone for your project. These are not necessarily an endorsement and they may include Google ads, third-party sponsors, and other affiliate advertisements.

Or you can post your project in Freelance Marketplaces where service providers can bid on your job. eLance.com and Guru.com are both good choices.




Some of the types of work I do ...

New Website and Website Redesign

I can build a new site or do a website redesign of an existing site. I also fix broken sites. Think of me a as "web mechanic". I am skilled in the technical details under the hood and can debug tough problems with your site.

If you would like to see examples of sites that I have done, contact me as to the type of web service you are looking for, and I will be happy to select relevant work examples from the various types of jobs we have completed.

Wordpress and Joomla Content Management Systems

Today, many clients want a dynamic website that is flexible enough so that they can update their own content. Perhaps you want be able to post company news or blog on the site. No problem. These type of sites are known as "content management system" (CMS). You will be able to to log into an online administrative interface on your website where you can update content without touching code. The technologies that we use are Wordpress, and Joomla. Of course, we will provide training and video tutorials as necessary.

ZenCart eCommerce

If you need to sell products and service on your site, I can help and provide you with guidance on selecting the right technology to use. ZenCart is a full-featured eCommerce platform where we can customize its functionality for your particular unique needs. And VirtueMart with Joomla makes a great combination. PayPal is very popular.

Want Flash?

Adobe Flash provides the animation and interactivity that can not be obtained otherwise. I do full-flash sites as well as hybrid Flash sites. Often I put in just the right amount of Flash to make your site just a bit more eye-catching.

Template Customizations

Already have a website? Many clients come to me already with a design in mind -- either from another designer or from a pre-made design template. That's fine, coding is my speciality. I can turn that design into a working website and deploy it to your webhost for you.

Purchasing a pre-made design or template (such as from TemplateMonster or DreamTemplate) is a low-cost method where you can select from a variety of styles. And best of all, you know what your final site already will look like. Once you have picked out a design, I will customize it for your specific site.

Are you a Web Designer?

If you are a web designer or consultant, consider subcontracting out the coding portion to me. My core competence is in coding; so I let you do what you do best. And I can help turn your art into code. All I need is just a picture. We'll take care of slicing, XHTML, CSS, and the rest.

Need a Web Host?

If you are looking for a webhost, consider Hostmonster. I have been using HostMonster myself for many years and have always recommended them to my clients.
