Chris Mitchell.
Writer. Web Designer. Diver.


:: Web Design

In the last five years, I have worked full time as a web project manager for two major UK companies: Future Publishing, the UK's fifth biggest magazine publisher; and Vodafone, the world's biggest mobile phone company.

I spent two years at Future Publishing managing the creation and direction of the website for .net, the UK's best selling Internet magazine. I was then promoted to editor of the Maximum PC Network, which effectively meant project management of all Future's computer magazine related websites.

Whilst at Vodafone I managed the Mobile and Technology Channels of Vizzavi.co.uk, Vodafone's joint Web venture with Vivendi International.

I have also published and edited spikemagazine.com since 1996, which has become one of the Web's most well-established and longest running online literary magazines. Spikemagazine.com currently has over one million page views per year.

I have also created several websites on a freelance basis. I specialise in simple, fast-loading sites that are light on graphics and low on cost to the client.

These sites include:

submerged.co.uk
A historical archive site about shipwrecks around Devon and the world, which also promotes the sale of Submerged Productions' books and videos.

peterjames.com
A showcase site for the books of best-selling thriller writer Peter James

surinvolunteers.com
A recruitment site to attract more English speaking volunteers to teach children in Thailand

john-parker.co.uk
A promotional site for the books of military historian John Parker

If you would like to discuss a website commission, please email me.
