You gotta love tech! All these talking heads who are predicting the end of web designers … more fake news! It’ll never happen. Wix be damned! After about 5 years of doing web design and seo, I realized that following the design work and the onset of initial seo, the work was really just starting. To effectively market one’s self online, you have to commit to long-term, as in forever, and for lack of a better term, SEO. My work in web design is expensive, no doubt. But the real nose bleed comes from the SEO work. I’m not...

Not long ago, back around Christmas 2015, I did a rant on my post “You Can Become A Full Stack Developer In 1000 Years” (I’m not going to link, for fear that Google will rank higher) and damn … Google ranked the post right up there with all the good stuff. It was really just a rant on all of the “questionable” content that has stacked up over the years for any subject you Google, making it ever harder to find what you really need … and I became part of the problem! Today I’m going to use the keyword...

I’ve long since given up writing for the masses. It’s really hard to gain popular appeal with “HOW TO INSTALL WORDPRESS”, when everyone else is writing about the same thing. So after a couple of years I started to write about technical subjects instead of “Keyword” popular issues. The reason for the switch was I was already doing a great deal of technical writing, but only for myself, squirreled away in so many “Word” documents, so that I might refer back to my notes when I encountered a similar issue...

This post ends my fourth year at this site and I thought I would provide all aspiring web developers with a bit of encouragement from my hard won knowledge. That is … you can become a full stack developer in about a thousand years! School for potential full stack developers is really a waste of resources, mainly the wear and tear on your auto and a loss of your time with all that goes on around your schooling. If you pursue schooling, you will learn great things when you are actually in the classroom … it’s just that everything...

I’m into a project that requires a distinct area of a nature scene background for text viewing. Not a problem really, as I am using a “bare-bones” approach to the design. However, when I went to “media-query” the thing the wheels came off. I’m not talking a completed site with issues; I’m just talking lining-up the background for design. I thought I was going to pass out I was so dizzy from sitting. I used every sort of code known to man and no matter the effort it would appear as if the site, or...

As your skills progress, your clients will see this, and naturally they will want greater options with their Websites. One such option is the Custom Admin Panel, as opposed to bloatware “CMS” that on the surface looks great, but will never index. Google’s sandbox and all that noise! I was looking at some cutting edge coding videos that were demonstrating how to code responsiveness into all the options of an Admin Panel so that you can not only work on a 65 inch Samsung Smart TV, but a Samsung flip phone as well. All of a sudden...

Originally posted: December 20, 2011 1st Revision: April 25, 2012 Over the past four months I’ve slowly pulled the pieces together here at Jeffrey-Morgan.com. While Web Design and Web Development is a never ending pursuit, a framework; if you will excuse my choice of words here, is usually a good idea. I had originally intended this section, “Themes & Templates”, to provide my customers with a clean selection of cutting-edge, state-of-the-art platforms with which to build their businesses or personal passions with. ...
