About Dan Temple - Bournemouth Freelance Web Developer

About Me

I’m Dan, a freelance web developer from Bournemouth. My journey started as a PHP developer at a local digital agency, where I got to work with everyone from ambitious startups to big names like VW, Domino’s, and Oracle. Tackling projects of all shapes and sizes gave me a strong foundation, and after seven years, I stepped into project management. That role opened my eyes to the whole development cycle, inspiring me to go solo and kick off my own freelance journey.

Now, I work with a mix of fantastic clients, both local and nationwide. From crafting clean, simple WordPress sites to creating custom CRM platforms and running email campaigns, I bring a ton of experience to each project. Web development isn’t just my job; it’s something I genuinely love, and I think that shows in both the work I do and the relationships I build. Some of my clients have been with me since day one, which I like to think speaks to the quality and consistency of my work.

When I’m not knee-deep in code, you’ll find me out on Bournemouth’s beaches with my dog, Blitzen, or trying to keep up with my daughter as she zooms around on her scooter. Life’s a bit of an adventure, and I bring that same spirit of enthusiasm to every project I take on.

My Web Development Toolkit

As a dedicated freelance developer, I harness a range of cutting-edge technologies and tools to bring robust, innovative solutions to life. My expertise spans across WordPress and Laravel for versatile web development, complemented by PHP for backend excellence and Vue.js for dynamic front-end interactivity.

My development toolkit is equipped with industry standards like GitHub for version control and collaborative coding, and Figma for intuitive and collaborative UI/UX design. This blend of technologies and tools enables me to deliver high-quality, scalable, and user-centric digital experiences.

Building Lasting Partnerships

Building strong client relationships is central to my work as a freelance developer. I prioritise clear communication and deeply understanding each client's unique needs. From our initial consultation to project completion, I ensure every step aligns with your vision and goals.

My commitment extends beyond project delivery; I offer ongoing support and advice, fostering long-term partnerships focused on your success. It's not just about creating websites; it's about nurturing lasting, supportive relationships.

"Dan recently completed a period of contract work with us, specifically on some internal development projects. He easily integrated into the team & was always eager to get stuck in & help out where needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or work with Dan again, he’s a great team player."
