I'm Miles Overn, and I help direct web traffic to customer sites. I'd love to do that for you!
He is a 14 year Microsoft MVP on Internet technologies. He has accompanied the Canadian Prime Minisiter on trade missions into Europe representing Canadian software technologies. He has managed the Vancouver office of an international marketing company. He is ultra current, and passionate about helping you connect with your customers while enhancing your vision and empowering your business.
As an early adopter of Internet technologies, I have well over two decades of experience building state-of-the-art sites utilizing current and emerging technologies. ASP, ASP.Net, VB.Net, C#, JavaScript, SQL Server, HTML5, CSS3, Sass, LESS, Responsive Web Design, Mobile First Web Design, jQuery, AJAX, JSON, SOA, etc. Prior to that, I spent another 15 years developing Windows-based line-of-business solutions for companies spanning the range of local to international.
Virtually every solution or site that I have built has been database connected and/or fully data-driven. Helping you surface and extract BI from your data is another service I can provide to you.
I have also been engaged on numerous occasions to provide technical due deligence for or on software companies. This has involved everything from code and artifact reviews, technical questionaires, and writing reports summarizing or detailing my findings.
I have been honoured with Microsoft's MVP award on ASP and ASP.Net for 14 consecutive years and have worked numerous Professional Developers Conferences, TechEds, Product Launches and other events with them across the globe. Places such as Amsterdam, San Diego, Vancouver, and many other world centers. Additionally, I have joined them in Redmond for many Global MVP Summits and other gatherings. Trippy stuff, lots of brilliant minds walking around.
Today many people in the field rely entirely on buying templates and modifying them for their customers. That's fine as far as it goes, but it does have serious limits. Limits that today are gathering to have profound negative effects on those sites for those customers. I approach my clients' needs from a position of decades of experience as a true software programmer accustomed to delivering solutions that meet and exceed expressed needs.
The whole field of SEO is changing rapidly. Even within it, it has many levels of detail and sophistication that must be fully understood in order to bring best practices into client work. Today, more than ever, clients are depending on marketing and technical experts to help them rise above the noise and truly help those clients to stand out and be seen.
Many, if not most, clients have surrendered their marketing to the twin towers of Google and Facebook and direct all their marketing spend to SEMs and SMMs that do little more than buy ads. There is a greater service that is called for and can be provided. We aim to provide greater understanding to businesses and organizations and help them direct their marketing dollars in more strategic ways.
Big Data is not new. It's been around in key fields for decades. Data is very important, but it doesn't have to be "big" to have a huge impact on businesses. We have been working with data in everything from mission critical line-of-business systems, sophisticated web apps and other solutions for over 20 years. We are happy to bring that expertise to bear for you.
