About
Welcome to my website. I am an independent web developer, designer, instructional designer and SEO optimizer.
I was born before computers were an everyday household item and video games were just a thought bubble above someone’s head. Computers and video games started coming out for home use toward the end of my elementary school days. I started working with computers in elementary school when one of my teachers took a programming class via the old Apple computers and brought her knowledge back to the classroom with that lovely green and black screen. I have to say I fell in love with what was going on.
I went to school and received a degree in Mathematics, and pursued a career in research and statistical analysis after graduation. Something was missing, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on what that was. Then one day it hit. As a researcher I attended a computing conference in 1996 and sat in on an HTML seminar. Having programmed for my jobs, I thought that HTML was the greatest thing since sliced bread and thus a star was born (so to speak).
I became a “webmistress” in 1998 after begging friends to teach me everything they knew about web development and programming. I served as the central webmaster of a large community college. I spread the love, and used my teaching background to help others learn basic web development and trained hundreds of staff and faculty members.
In 2002, I ventured out and started my own consulting business, using word of mouth to keep my business going. I developed non-profit, for-profit, and educational web sites, logos, elearning content and anything and everything in between.
Currently, I have embarked on a new journey, and have joined with a business partner to take app development to the next level, launching my new company EB Online Solutions, LLC. We have already teamed up with MagnifierDirectory.com to offer a fresh directory service hosted out of the United States. The site offers a human reviewed/human edited, SEO friendly service with a social media element, using Twitter to advertise all new listings. It’s a very new site, but I think it will be one people will be talking about for years to come.
I have put my consulting services on hold while I develop new apps for EB Online Solutions, LLC, but hope that if you are looking for services that you will contact me at contactus@epoff.com since I have lots of quality recommendations. And, I hope to get back to consulting in a few months, after I get things rolling with my new company. In the meantime, I finally get to just write about things I want to, so bookmark me, follow me on Twitter and come by and leave a comment or email me. I love people and I love sharing ideas and learning new things!
Cheers and thanks for stopping by!
Elizabeth Poff
