John Merrick

First of all I want to say that I’m not the Elephant Man as I hope you can see from my photo, so if you came here expecting to find out all about this extraordinary man you can Go Here.

So back to me. Well I was born in Bristol, UK and I have been involved in computers for most of my life. I spent most of my working life writing real programs that ran on computers for both DOS and Windows before I got seduced by the web around 1997. Then I turned my focus to web site programming and design and have never looked back.

I specialise in developing Custom Scripts for web based businesses and can develop anything from simple forms, membership sites to the most complex e-commerce scripts.

Although I mainly work in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL I can handle the following technologies:

• C, C++, ASP, PHP, Java
• CGI, RSS, SQL
• HTML, XML
• JavaScript, JQuery
• Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)
• Web 2.0 technologies such as Ajax
• Databases – MySQL, SQL Server
• Web Servers – Apache, IIS
• Windows and Unix/Linux

You can view my portfolio of some of my work here.

I started dabbling internet marketing around the Year 2000 when I started to work with some very prominent Internet Marketers and over the years I have picked up the lingo and tricks that are currently in use. I don’t claim to be an IM guru but I know enough to help and hopefully add value to the programming and technical aspect of the sites I work on.

So enough about me, if you need to contact me here are a couple of places where you can meet me and you are always more than welcome to post a comment or question anywhere on this blog.
