Phil Thompson is an experienced freelance web designer / web developer; currently splitting his time between a number of different web agencies and clients across Manchester.
Specialities
Phil specialises in Front-end web code and WordPress. For those of you who don’t speak geek, this means he converts web designs (usually from Photoshop) into fully functioning website built on the incredibly easy-to-use WordPress platform. He can also design websites and build them using PHP coupled with MySQL. He also knows a fair bit about Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and getting websites noticed.
His professional experience has enabled Phil to gain a very good understanding of how websites work, from how they attract people to how they convince those same people to purchase/read/subscribe and then make return visits. Phil has a proven record of improving the fortunes of websites, whether that means increasing profits or increasing their findability in search engines.

What’s with the yellow?
The short answer is because Phil likes it; the longer answer is that it makes the website stand-out. It allows for a very simplistic, some may say, minimalist design that maintains some character.
Some people like the yellow and some don’t.
