Long ago I needed to learn html to make a web site for Computer Update. I've hooked up with Derek Brigham who is a design genius and together, we've worked on a number of sites together. He does the looks, I do the backend plumbing. In some cases I'll take over the web hosting for the customer, in other cases, I simply modify the old content.

Some of the sites I've worked on this past year:

MDE

The Taxpayer's League of Minnesota

Freedom Dogs

LMCD

MN Free Market Institue

In some cases, I've just fixed other sites in the background when the owner has gotten stuck or broken something.

Generally, I can get a new Joomla site up and running in a couple hours. Then depending on what the customer wants, like fancy templates with flyout menus and built in sorting and such, I might go to 10 hours. The hope is with a Joomla site, the owner can take over the site to keep it up to date without my help or any additional costs. Just like computer work, I want to get it simple enough for the owner to think about content and not the work involved in getting something posted.
