About MB Web Design

MB Web Design is the business trading name of Mathew Browne. That’s me. Hello!

I am a web designer from Carmarthenshire, South Wales.  Following a three-year contract as a web designer and PHP developer at the Centre for Medical Image Computing at University College London, I moved to full-time website development and SEO via my consultancy, MB Web Design. I now work with some world-class British designers and coders to provide a personal, bespoke website design and Internet marketing service to businesses in the UK and worldwide.

Education and qualifications

Prior to attending university I achieved success in several noteworthy website design competitions from sponsors such as the Science Museum, EPSRC and the European Space Agency. In 2005 I graduated from University College London with a Bachelors degree in Computer Science. I was immediately recruited to join Professor Derek Hill on a grant-funded Partnership for Public Engagement project. The success of the project opened the door for a second, larger grant and a two-year project. During this my role included web design, graphic design, interactive design via Flash, and PHP development.

Launching MB Web Design

Over the years I have worked as a freelance web designer during my free time. Steadily, I have grown a list of happy clients and outstanding websites. With a substantial increase in enquiries in 2007 – the majority of which were recommendations from existing customers – I found the time was right to rebrand and relaunch MB Web Design, a one-stop-shop for business web design services. The relaunch offered an opportunity to announce new services including logo design, stationary design, website translation, online advert design and accessibility auditing, along with web development staples: web design and search engine optimisation (SEO).
