In 2004 I was asked by the local church whether I could mean something for them, in the form of a member of commity or department. That is nothing for me I thought.
I had heard of a requirement for a website. To involve youngster and older youngsters with the religiously life. I proposed to arrange a websiet for the church. After of the church council I could start.

First I did an inventarisation on wishes and goal of the website. Using this data, and help of a colleague and friend Chris Hansen, a template was created. Chris worked already on a website about photography, dslr.nl.

In 2005 the first version of the website was launched. It was made with Frontpage. The website was in the air and ran locally on a PC at home. Frontpage does not create efficient code. Because of the in-efficient code and the local webserver-PC at home, the website was not very fast.

The next step was to optimize the code and to change to PHP code. Also the webserver at home was not ideal because my internet line was rather slow. Shortly after optimization of the code, the website was hosted by a proper hosting provider One.com.

Now the speed of the website was sufficient. The management had improve too. I had to rewrite all delivered articles into code.
For such a situation you need a CMS (Content Management System) package. I tried several and started to use WebsiteBaker. This is a CMS which combines ease of  use, multi language, flexibility and the possibility to use PHP code. The church website is since the beginning of 2010 completely tranferred to WebsiteBaker. Several groups and department have started to maintain their own pages on the site.

All this time Chris Hansen has encouraged and helped the improvement. Thanks Chris.

In the meantime I worked on other websites too. The technics used vary from Frontpage, PHP to WebsiteBaker CMS. An overview of the profolio you see below.
