Martin Fleming
A Freelance Web Developer using Open Source technologies

Who am I and what do I do?

Based in the UK in Southampton, Hampshire I am a freelance web developer / web programmer skilled in XHTML, CSS, PHP, MySQL, SQLite, Accessibility, Semantics and Microformats. I also have a significant experience with the very popular Joomla content management system.

I call myself a open source web developer as all technologies I choose to work with are free from restrictive licensing and will work freely on any platform of choice.

So what do I not do?

I choose not to be a “Jack of all trades”, instead I focus on continuously enhancing my skills within the set of technologies and languages I choose to work with. I am not a Javascript or AJAX developer and I do not currently undertake any Ecommerce work.

I need to make it clear that I am not a web designer. My skills involve implementing the design presented to me into a web page or web application. A quick browse through my portfolio will assure you that my strengths lie in making websites exacting to presented designs, all hand coded and meeting W3C recommendations in terms of XHTML and CSS syntax and accessibility requirements and considerations.

How would I help your business?

I am the perfect choice for picking up your overloaded schedules. I am UK based, therefore there will be no communication barrier or risk from unreliable foreign sources. I can work to realistic deadlines and would rather turn down the work than promise a delivery date that would fail to be kept.

I work transparently so in the unlikely event that I need more information from your customers for my work, I will introduce myself as a member of your company. This will free up any of your time that may have been spent being a “middle man”.
