FEATURE: CAJUN DANCE PARTY Visit the Cajun Dance Party website
Working in conjunction with the band's management based in Cardiff, my role for Cajun Dance Party has included both web design and web development. I built and developed the band's official website, as well as sister-site CajunDanceParty.tv.
The official website contains a blog the band update themselves to stay in touch with fans, as well as a full discography, gallery and lyric sheets. In addition, I developed and integrated a fansite, where fans can login and discuss different topics. This also serves as a platform for making announcements. All aspects of these sites are fully content managed using a combination of WordPress and my own code.
More recently I assisted as web designer and developer during production of CajunDanceParty.tv. This website is intended to showcase selected features, and changes periodically as new content becomes available. To date the website has featured high quality streaming video as well as a photo journal of the band on tour.
WEB DESIGN
I am a multimedia web designer and can work with you to produce graphics for a range of digital formats - from full web design packages, cover artwork and logo design to advertisements, e-mail campaigns and virals.
I have worked on several high profile band and record label websites. I have a very good understanding of the principles behind web design for music driven websites, including the sale and delivery of MP3s online. Contact me for more information.
WEB DEVELOPMENT
Web development is the process by which your design drafts are turned into fully functioning, interactive websites. Good development ensures that your website meets with web standards and accessibility guidelines. This ensures that your target audience can see the website as you intended, whatever their web browser or operating system.
CONTENT MANAGEMENT
A Content Management System (CMS) is an application designed to let you create, edit and maintain data on your website.
I am able to produce bespoke systems tailored to your specific requirements, giving you the tools you need to manage your website easily and effectively. I can also work with popular open-source publishing tools such as WordPress and Drupal.
E-COMMERCE
The web is an ideal platform to sell your products. Whether they are tangible items such as works of art or virtual products like MP3s, I can help you get your business online. I can build custom store fronts and administration systems and can work with open-source applications like osCommerce, Magento and Ubercart.
SEO
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) increases the number of visitors to your website by improving your website's page ranking in search results.
As search engines become more sophisticated, the focus is on producing content rich websites with clear navigation and good accessibility. I ensure that the websites I produce meet with search engine guidelines to maximise your website's potential.
