Web sites are an extremely important way for businesses to say who they are and what they do. Good web developers must first, be willing to work with their clients to be certain that they understand the client’s message and be able to advise their clients on the best way to get that message across.My name is Simon Gauthier, with over 18 years of experience in web development and 11 years running my own web production company I know how important it is to understand the client’s real needs and the best way to get it across. As an experienced web developer I know how to write clean code and follow the best practices. I also understand how security works and design to keep a site up and running 100% of the time.Today, it is not sufficient to just be present on the web, you must be effective and relevant which also means you must be mobile compatible and the site must be created with the user experience in mind.My philosophy is straight forward. Using close and effective communication with my clients, I strive to produce a quality product, on time and without any financial surprises.Every assignment entails unique problems and experience has enabled me to find solutions that are innovative and unique. My clients can expect me to keep my word and to be pro-active in providing effective and efficient solutions.It can be expected that things will change during a project. Maintaining close communications and being adaptive are the keys to providing client satisfaction.A key factor for success is building a strong team and providing dynamic leadership.This is what I do, how I do it. Why I do it this way is because I truly love what I do and want my work to be a measure of who I am.If you have any questions or would like to discuss my experiences, please connect with me on LinkedIn.
