I have built a number of websites (including this one). I have several years' experience with PHP, SQL databases (particularly MySQL), HTML, CSS, and content management systems (especially Drupal). I can perform all steps of setting up a website, from the hosting to the development to the design and theme to search engine optimization. Use my contact form if you are interested in hiring me.
