Before becoming a web developer, I was a qualified electrical and electronics engineer, solving problems and providing solutions in industrial applications.
During my career as an engineer, I discovered that I had a natural ability to write code. A few years later, I established Chill Web Designs in my hometown of Great Yarmouth.
I’m a self-taught PHP developer with over 15 years of experience in building websites, bespoke systems and Progressive Web Applications (PWAs).
My objective is to provide affordable website development and graphic design services to help local businesses in the virtual and real worlds.
I aim to achieve this by bringing ideas and visions to life, through eye-catching website design and digital and printed marketing materials.
I am also a commercial photographer who can provide striking images to enhance your website even further.
I pride myself on providing a professional, personal, and friendly service that is flexible to clients’ needs and budgets. That can be anything from office stationery such as business cards and corporate brochures to websites with e-commerce facilities.
I like to be fully responsive – just like the websites I create, so get in touch today to discuss how we can work together.

These are the six simple steps I follow to design and develop your website and get you online.
I take the time to understand your business needs, target audience and aspirations for your website. I will be open and honest from the outset and explain what can be achieved with your resources and budget. I will use the opportunity to discuss web hosting and domain options for your new website or review any existing hosting to ensure it is fit for purpose.
The first step in developing a successful website is careful research and planning. As is said, the devil is in the detail. I will carefully go through all aspects of your site and start by creating wireframes and reviewing the information architecture (IA).
The design phase is where the visual look of the website starts to take shape. I use wireframes to build your website with the content organised to maximise user engagement with a clear call to action. I can ensure that visitors enjoy an informative, user-friendly, and engaging experience while browsing your website.
After I have received the content for your site, the web development process starts. Development is the process of combining the visuals and materials into code that web browsers understand. The websites I develop use the latest standards and coding practices, with emphasis on search engine optimisation, accessibility, and user experience (UX).
The last phase is where finishing touches are made to your website before it is launched. Your website will undergo extensive testing on different mobile, tablet devices, and modern web browsers. You will have an opportunity to view your site before it is launched.
Each support package I offer is bespoke to the needs of the project and client. As each website is unique, and individuals' technical knowledge and experience vary, some may opt to leave it to the experts to maintain and support your site. My support packages can include updating WordPress, server maintenance, applying security patches, updating PHP versions, and providing off-site backups for your website.
I contacted Chris to host and redesign my country cottage and caravan websites. With his added photography skills, it was the perfect solution for me. To have all our needs fulfilled by Chill Web Designs was such a time saver. Chris was always responsive to calls and emails and was able to turn around both websites in a short space of time. Professional in all aspects, I would not hesitate to recommend Chris and Chill Web Designs Services.

Can not recommend Chris enough, our previous site was outdated and in desperate need of a refresh. Chris has re-built, adding additions that had been missed, the support and guidance have been great.

I contacted Chris after trying to create my website myself. With his experience, knowledge and creative flair he was able to create me a brand spanking new website that looked far better than I could ever have imagined. Fantastic service, a definite 5 stars from me all the way.

Christopher was to hand when my own web-designer let me down, and stepped in quickly with what was to become our new website. A fresh approach and modern look was needed. Chris was patient with me, offered plenty of advice, and delivered our great new website. I would recommend Chris without hesitation.

I would happily recommend Christopher to anyone wishing to have a Website created. He responded quickly and was able to explain everything to me. I soon realised I really didn't know anything about building a Website and needed a professional. Chritopher has created a Website for my holiday let far exceeding my expectations.
