Websites for Smartphones and Tablets
Every website we design is designed using a mobile-friendly approach. This means your site will always work properly and look right on any mobile devices.
Mobile friendly web design and how users interact with your site using mobile devices, is now more important than ever before as the majority of users surf the web using a Smartphone or Tablet. This growing trend in using mobile devices for internet use is exploding.
The best approach to having a pleasant mobile experience for your customers is to use responsive website design. A responsive website fluidly changes its layout to suit the screen size and devices it’s being viewed on. This means the website changes automatically so it always remains functional to a user whatever device they are using. It also means that a user does not have to use so many mobile gestures to navigate round your site.
Responsive Website Design allows for a streamlined experience across all mobile devices and desktop computers also.
Over 50% of people view you as more professional and have a happier experience if they can use a site that is optimised for mobile usage.
If Customers are happier using your site then they are going to stay on it longer which increases engagement and this in turn gives you a better chance of making a sale or getting customers to perform some other important action.

Why Mobile-Friendly Design Matters
I always try to visit you and spend some time learning about your business to start with, because if I understand you and your business then together we can create a site you are proud of.
My whole aim is to guide you through the process so we end up with something we are both happy to show off.
The Web Design Process
Research
When I design and build a website I spend time researching and analysing you and your business, your customers and your competitors. This helps to build and define exactly what you want to achieve from your website. All my consultations are free of charge.
Discussion
I ask you about your business and create a brief of your requirements, your wants and desires, what you do and don’t like, colours, fonts and all manner of others things. After I have compiled this brief I send it to you along with a quote.
Design
When we are happy with where we are going and you are happy with the price, I then design the site in Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. When you are feeling good with how it all looks I then begin the building of your site.
Handover
When the site build is complete and we are happy with how it performs and its working well, then I officially hand it over to you. I generally don’t take payment until this point, but if its a big site I may sometimes ask for a deposit, dependent on the time it will take to complete.
Aftersales
After your site is up and running, I wont just leave you either, I will ensure its running properly and usually perfom little tweaks here and there if you require them, like an image change or a title change. If its a larger change like additional pages, then we can discuss the options and how much it will cost.
Web Hosting
When it comes to hosting I dont skimp but use a professional hosting company with good quality, reliable and fast servers. I tend to shy away and advise against using the cheaper bulk hosting companies as they dont offer as much when it comes to support and hosting tools.
More About John & AnodisedBlue
I started my career as an Engineering Apprentice, honing my craft as a Vertical Miller and CNC Machinist/Programmer before progressing into Production and Design Engineering. I also served as a Photographic Interpreter and Intelligence Analyst in the Royal Air Force, before moving into IT and Graphic Design — a natural progression as engineering increasingly became IT-driven. Along the way, I gained extensive experience in Engineering Project Management within manufacturing, where I learned the importance of delivering work on time and within budget. I hold university qualifications in Mechanical Engineering, a BSc (Hons) in Software Engineering, and am also a Six Sigma belt and experienced Project Manager.
Throughout my career, I have worked on and led a variety of large-scale, high-value projects. These include the introduction of Iseki tractors, Jacobsen turf machinery, and E-Z-Go golf carts into the UK, as well as contributing to the design and development of JCB wheel loaders and heavy machinery. While with the RAF, I carried out mission-critical intelligence analysis on a Tornado squadron, and earlier in my career was part of the engineering team responsible for designing the HVAC system for the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow. I have also held the role of Communications Director for a charity providing outward bound opportunities for disabled and underprivileged children.
Today, I run AnodisedBlue from a home-based design studio, providing professional web, graphic, and digital marketing services. None of my work is outsourced — everything is handled personally to ensure quality, consistency, and accountability. I take pride in being approachable, responsive, and reliable, with services that are tailored to each client’s needs while remaining cost-effective.
Most of my business comes from referrals, recommendations, and repeat clients, a reflection of the long-term relationships I build and the trust clients place in the quality of the work delivered.
