AP Web Design has been in the web consulting business since 1998.
I have worked on custom web design projects, custom web development projects, and troubleshooting web sites and web server applications. Most of the custom web development projects I h ave worked on have used open source technologies. The web site design and development industry is very competitive, and different development technologies, from hosting to design, can be very expensive. Open source technologies like PHP, MySQL, Perl, Apache, and others allow for top-notch applications at a minimal cost.
Some of my more recent clients include:
The technologies used in most of my experience has been open source technologies. This includes linux server administration, web development in php and perl, xml processing and parsing, and use of other open source software in the web development arena.
Some of the database applications I've written involved content repositories, web site statistics reporting on search engine traffic, an E-Mail Newsletter application.
Linux administration: including DNS/Bind, Apache configuration, MySQL administration
Perl programming: Using DBI.pm, CGI.pm, XML::Parser, HTML::Parser, and a handful of other modules.
PHP programming: I've written some applications interfacing with a MySQL database.
