Yep, it’s really that simple. There’s a reason why the waterfall approach is a mainstay of web design: it works. After 15+ years of building WordPress websites, I have my process down to a science.
I’m Daniel Quinn—a technical lead, digital strategist, freelance WordPress developer, and former copywriter with a background in communications. For 15+ years, I’ve helped digital agencies, startups, and nonprofits all over the world build digital platforms that reinvent their business.
As Editor of Touchstone, I created the 2006 issue of Touchstone, the student literary magazine of Stetson University, alongside Assistant Editor and digital artist Laura Oxendine.
I redesigned Redivider’s website, introducing WordPress as the back-end content management system for the editorial staff.
Kingfish Media hired me to develop the redesign for Ascot Group, a worldwide insurance / reinsurance company that operates in the USA, Bermuda, and the UK.
Using stylized illustrations in an interactive slideshow, we created a visual narrative for the company’s experiential marketing app, My Digital Aloha.
Allen & Gerritsen approached me to develop the redesign for Toy State, an international licenser of radio controlled toys. The development scope was massive.
Argus contracted me to develop Northeastern University’s new NU Crossing website, a promotional brochureware for sharing networking events within the university.
Using WordPress, I created a theme that allowed the agency’s small team to get hands-on with their portfolio content while preserving the unique layout of their website’s design.
I helped LogMeIn bring all its product blogs under a single WordPress Multisite platform, making life easier for their content editors.
Cambridge Savings Bank approached me to develop a form to capture signups for their holiday drawing, where they would give away $5000 to one family in Massachusetts.
A Bad Penny Review, a quarterly literary journal that appears in print and online, published visual artist Laura Oxendine and me in the online journal’s printed 2013 anthology for our I WANT YOU NEED collaboration.
The 2011 re-launch for Japanese rock magazine ROKKYUU focused on gearing the magazine toward visual kei in a highly customized WordPress installation.
While Devsec is a simple site from a technical perspective, we added visual complexity by introducing layers of graphical flourishes, motion graphics, and looping video to give it that science fiction feel.
