Hi, I'm Danny Carlton, a freelance web designer and coder based in Oklahoma. Specializing in tackling tough installations other coders have given up on.
I started learning computers in the very early 80's. I made my way around a Unix mainframe until I discovered the Apple ][. I even earned a bit of money in college writing programs for the university.
By the 90's I had moved to PC's and when the internet became popular, branched into there. I pick up new technologies quickly, in fact some, such as AJAX, I was developing even before it became popularized.
While I thoroughly enjoy design, my specialty has been troubleshooting difficult scripting environments—cleaning up those sites other programmers find too confusing to tackle. My ability to learn quickly allows me to dig into complex installations and ferret out problems others couldn't. Occasionally, I'm even asked to troubleshoot scripts in a language I've not used before, fixing the code as I learn the language on-the-fly.
However, many of my clients are small businesses with small budgets that simply need their web site maintained and updated on a regular basis. In those cases my speed and expertise are perfect for handling the areas the business owner finds too much for his or her skill-set.
So far I've developed, repaired or managed sites using Perl, PHP, Javascript, jQuery, Cold Fusion, ASP and MySQL/Maria.
If you look through my Portfolio you'll notice quite a few of my clients retain my services for several years. I offer ongoing maintenance as well as coding and design. Many clients find it convenient to have someone just an email away who can tackle changes, updates or problems with their site. I rarely take more than an hour to respond to emails, and most I respond to within minutes.
