What’s all this, then?

You’re currently enjoying the personal website of Mark Howells-Mead – a British photographer and web developer living in Switzerland.

Need to get in touch? That’s what is for. Note that anyone sending a sponsorship or cross-linking request gets blocked as a spammer. Don't waste your time.

I am partner at the Say Hello web agency in Spiez, Switzerland, specialising in WordPress CMS concept, design and development work using the Gutenberg editor and REST API, as well as progressive web apps.

Hosting and privacy

This website is hosted on servers managed by Cyon GmbH in Basel, Switzerland – they do a great job and I can highly recommend them.

You can read all about what data I collect and how it gets used in my privacy policy.

I get around.

When I’m not adding new content to my own website, you can usually find me trawling around the following social media and community sites.

Instagram
Redbubble
Tumblr
Twitter
Facebook
LinkedIn
Github

I love WordPress

I’ve been building websites with the world’s favourite content management system since the very first release in 2004. As well as a career as a full-stack CMS developer, I also contribute to the community as a voluntary WordCamp speaker, translation editor (German/Swiss German) and plugin developer.
