I’m Mark Rowley, an enthusiastic web designer based in North Essex, England. I predominantly work on website design and custom WordPress design as well as logos, social media graphics, and print design.
Let’s start from the beginning
I grew up in a small coastal town in North Essex where I still live today and am lucky enough to enjoy a great view of the beach. I went to school locally where I developed an interest in art and design from an early age.
My interest in web design began in 2006 while running a part-time business importing goods from China and reselling on Amazon and eBay. This proved to be very successful and it soon became obvious I could increase sales further by selling direct to customers and reducing my costs. In short, I needed a website!
Now I’ve always had an interest in technology and computing so I thought to myself “Why not build my own website”. So after a little research, a few software purchases, many hours at my desk and numerous cups of tea I had my first website up and running. I’ll be honest, it wasn’t easy and there were a few hiccups along the way, but seeing the finished results of my efforts sparked a keen interest in web design.
In 2011 I set up One Website Design after building a few websites for friends and a local charity organization. Since then I’ve continued to improve and expand my knowledge and have seen a steady increase in demand for my services.
A year later in 2012, I began working with WordPress which allowed me to offer my clients a website solution with full content management capability. I now work almost exclusively with WordPress, building custom themes to suit client requirements or customising existing WordPress themes.
