			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bharat Express are entering four cars in the <a title="Visit the Mongol Rally Webpages" href="http://mongolrally.theadventurists.com/" target="_blank">Mongol Rally 2009</a>, a journey from the UK to Mongolia. The teams are rasing money for charities including <a title="Visit the Mercy Corps Mongolia website" href="http://www.mercycorps.org.mn/" target="_blank">Mercy Corps Mongolia</a> and <a title="Visit CNCF's website" href="http://www.cncf.org/" target="_blank">Christina Noble Children&#8217;s Foundation</a>.</p>
<p>The organiser of the event (<a title="Visit The Adventurists' Website" href="http://www.theadventurists.com" target="_blank">The Adventurists</a>) provide each team with a basic website with a blog and other features. However Bharat Express were not happy with the look of these sites, and so appointed me to design a template to work with the organisers systems, and to advise and assist with other IT related matters.</p>
<p>The new look sites will be ready in a couple of days.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hamilton Precision Ltd, an engineering company in Buckingham, United Kingdom have chosen me as the designer and host for their website.</p>
<p>Although Hamilton Precision have been established for over 20 years, they have not felt the need to have a website until now. I was able to demonstrate that I could design an attractive website that would present their company, products and services to the world via the internet</p>
<p>My previous experience working for engineering companies and my marketing skills satisfied them that I understood their business sufficiently to cater for their needs and ensure that their website will attract traffic and new business.</p>
<p>The site is expected to go live in approximately two to four weeks from now.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Makepak International Trading Ltd, a machinery and parts supplier specialising in cigarette making and packing machinery has ordered a major upgrade to their website <a href="http://www.makepakinternational.com">www.makepakinternational.com</a></p>
<p>Their current site, which I designed for Makepak several months ago, ranks very well on Google (frequently ranking number one for searches of items in their catalogue, and rarely outside the top five) and has bought in a lot of enquiries and new business for Makepak &#8211; details of the site are available in my Portfolio &#8211; <a title="online catalog website for machinery company" href="http://www.jasonbarton.co.uk/2009/04/online-catalog-website-for-machinery-company/#utm_source=feed&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=feed" target="_self">click here</a>.</p>
<p>Peter Clarke, Managing Director of Makepak stated &#8220;I am delighted with the number of enquiries the website has generated for us, and the orders generated have proved that the site works. The only problem is that the sheer volume of enquiries are time consuming to deal with, so we now need an improved admin panel to speed up quoting and give us more information on what we have quoted to whom&#8221;.</p>
<p>The upgrade will comprise of improvements and new features to the website&#8217;s admin panel, and a general makeover to the look and feel of the site. Completion of the project is expected to take around one to two months.</p>
