About Me

Hi, I’m George English. I’m a web designer and front-end developer, based in Telford, Shropshire. I am currently available for hire as a freelance web designer and developer.

In a nutshell, I can design and build you a great looking, fast, responsive, mobile and search engine friendly WordPress website, built to the latest web standards and tested in all modern browsers.

Whatever your needs, drop me a line and let's talk—Even if I can't help you, I can point you to someone who can.

Portfolio

I’ve worked on countless projects over the years—designing and building innovative websites for local Shropshire businesses and international brands alike.

Here are some of my favourites:

Why Hire Me

If you need an affordable website, but still want a bespoke, agency quality design.

I have 7 years commercial experience as a web designer and developer, most recently as a web designer at a leading Shrewsbury marketing agency.

Like all my websites, yours will be:

 

Responsive

This should go without saying, but of course your website will look fabulous on all phones and tablets.

Fast

Nobody likes waiting. A slow website is bad for business—many users will lose confidence after just a few seconds. I ensure your website loads quickly and feels snappy. Find out more

Easy to maintain

The Advanced Custom Fields plugin for WordPress gives me the freedom to create custom content layouts that are easy for you to update.

Accessible

I build websites with clear, readable text, and semantic, screen reader and search engine friendly markup (e.g. correct heading <h1> tags).

Optimised

All in all, having a fast, responsive website—with proper semantic markup—is the best way to avoid the most common search engine ranking pitfalls. I recommend the popular Yoast SEO plugin for meta titles and descriptions, and social media images. Find out more

Hosted & Supported

For an additional cost, I can offer affordable, fast and reliable hosting for your site, and keep WordPress and all plugins up to date to help keep your site secure.

What I Also Do

Website Speed/Performance

If you have a slow WordPress website, I can work my magic to speed it up. Find out more

WooCommerce

WooCommerce is an ecommerce plugin for WordPress and the most popular ecommerce platform in the world. If you are a small/medium sized business looking to sell products online, WooCommerce might be for you. I can integrate WooCommerce into your new or existing WordPress website.

Shopify

I have experience customising Shopify themes, and can help you if you are looking for a Shopify developer to make changes to your online store.

Logo

If you don’t have one, I can design a logo for your business.

Photos

I know my way around a digital SLR, and am proficient in Photoshop/Lightroom.

Print

I can design your business card, leaflet, brochure, and other simple print work.

Such an amazing job George. I could go on about the various details I can see that you’ve taken care over as well as perfecting the overall look and functionality, but that could be a VERY long email :))

What I Don’t Do

Magento

Setting up a full Magento e-commerce site from start to finish is a major task that requires expert knowledge. I have some experience with Magento themes. If you have an existing Magento site that you just want to make some simple changes to, I may be able to help you.

Large Print Jobs

I won’t design your magazine, catalogue, stationery, banner, sign or poster.

Professional Photography

Sadly I don’t have access to high end lenses, flashes, reflectors etc.

Branding

I recommend you hire someone who just does design, or an agency.
