ABOUT
URBAN BALLOON
WEB DESIGN

Hola, me llamo Andrea (awn-DRAY-uh).

I am a freelance web designer who likes to use HTML/PHP and WordPress using SEO concepts to create sleek, modern sleek sites that help website owners take their site to the next level, while creating a good client/designer relationship along the way.

I can also help with a host of other things such as web research, project coordination, social media administration and content, and virtual assistant services.

I rely on standard
elements when
working on a
web design project:

  • Good Visual Design: My work pulls together the visual elements of your site with a theme that relates to your website topic. I put research into the use of color and meaning, and make good use of space, fonts, layouts and logos.
  • Content: Good visual design can also help keep webpage content on track. When adding content to a site, the information must be up-to-date, easy to follow, and relevant to the user.
  • Navigation: Users should have an easy time finding their way around and find it simple to locate information.
  • Call to Action: People have a purpose when visiting a website. We want to make sure we identify the appropriate audenience and create a means for them to take immediate action to fill that purpose.
  • Mobile compatibility: Mobile phones and tablets make up for almost half of web page views worldwide. I design and test websites with this in mind. Your mobile-friendly site will be sure to look great and function appropriately across a variety of internet capable devices and browsers.
  • Credibility: A good website is trustworthy. Items should be incorporated that help identify that you are a legitimate resource. Along with having a professional design, verifying information accuracy, keeping site content information up to date, making the site easy to use, showing that the website is held by real entities, and making it easy to contact the organization are part of a successful plan.

I enjoy helping your brand grow with its online presence represented creatively and aesthetically, while ensuring ease of use for your audience.

Feel free to contact me if you would like to work together on your next project.

SKILLS
OF A
WEB DESIGNER

A designer should bring creativity, have an attention for detail, be great at problem-solving and use logical work methods, and be able to manage deadlines. Each of my clients should expect these qualities when we work together on a project, in addition to being educated and receiving a clear explanation about technical subjects.
