Web Development & Design

My name
Hello! My name is Ben Bankson and I'm a web developer based out of Central Florida. I'd love to make your aquaintence so please feel free to ! I'd love to hear from you.

Personal & Professional Profile

Where it all began

I first stepped into web development as a flash developer, later expanding into the realm of HTML and CSS. Eventually I started learning more advanced server side programming with PHP and MySQL. I absolutely love web development and design and really enjoy the challenge that it provides!

Why Me?

One of the main reasons I got into professional web development was because I noticed a lot of people (churches, small businesses, individuals) paying an arm and a leg for websites and getting poor quality in return. I couldn't stand seeing people get taken advantage of so I set out to provide clients with the highest quality websites for a reasonable cost. I believe that when a client comes to me, my job is to provide them with something that meets their needs, not just sell them a bunch of services they don't need.

What I'm doing today

Currently I specialize in Wordpress Development, helping Churches, Small Businesses and Individuals meet and exceed their goals and expectations.
