A Method for Achieving Goals

Whether your website is designed to generate sales (e-commerce) or prospects, its existence is not enough to watch it perform.

A multidisciplinary specialist like me is an invaluable asset to maintain and optimize a website's ongoing efficiency on the long term, thanks to a toolset making use of the domain's best practices.

The Pillars of my Method

Visual Design

A strong visual concept, an intuitive interface, and contents that answer the questions of the targeted audience, are the foundation of a durable and efficient digital strategy. An ongoing optimization of these factors only reinforces these pillars.

Development

A well-programmed website — both at the server and source code levels — guarantees performances that will please users and search engines alike. I work with CMS's (i.e., Wordpress, Shopify, etc.) as much as hand-coded, static websites, all depending on the project's needs.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Optimizing a website's contents with the keywords most used by the targeted audience represents a safe investment that generates traffic all year long while creating value without spending on advertisements.

Analytics

Collecting user behavior data is the best way of measuring a website's return on investment. It also allows identifying pain points along the customers' journey to conversion in order to prevent blindly optimizing a website post-launch.

About me

Maxime Blaquière, portrait

Currently looking for new challenges, I wish to join a dynamic team in order to pursue my journey in website design, development, or optimization ...or all of those combined into one position.

I am a web designer with a diverse skill set. Humble regarding my accomplishments, I have a knack for attention to detail, constant learning, and a passion to share my knowledge, always with an intent to create value for my clients and coworkers.

What matters most to me? Quality over quantity.

And when I'm not facing a screen, I can be found in nature, camera in hand, observing and photographing fauna, mostly birds.

I am curious to learn of your project. Let's establish contact by email :)
