Freelance Web Development

Specializing in assisting Design Firms with the development of
Search Engine Optimized Rich Internet Applications.

Programming services to create interactive and database driven e-commerce web sites.

I'm Jules Gravinese - a seasoned American professional of web development since 1996. I offer high quality hand coded greatness.
I've worked for and currently maintain webistes for clients such as ADP, Nikon USA, the City of Aspen, the City of Grand Junction, and the University of Minnesota - as well as hospitals, simple brochure sites, and mom-n-pop web shops.
Often I get my clients on the first page of google, usually in the top 5, and quite a few as #1 - in both web search and product search.
I am part of heavily used open source projects like TinyMCE and Scriptaculous, as well as some of my own.

So, if you're tired of chop-shop butcher-coding from Asia, you've come to the right place.

Being an experienced Web Developer, I have a lot of back-end programming skills for building shopping carts and member databases while I can also be focused on the front-end functionality and look of a site. I will help you organize the information of your web site so your viewers and shoppers have an easier time navigating. I work with web based code like ColdFusion, AJAX, Web 2.0, Javascript, PHP, SQL and more. If you are looking for a database-driven back-end and/or a crazy interactive front-end, you should contact me.
