Short Bio

Allan develops web sites using either the Drupal or WordPress frameworks. These range from simple blogs to sophisticated web applications. He continually ensures that his business clients and their intended audience receives a solution that is user friendly, both in maintenance and direct usage.

Allan published his first web site in 1994. Over the years he has worked on more projects he can remember and has gained an in-depth and instinctive knowledge of what will work and what will not.

As he says: “Give someone a solution that is going to burden them and they will break it, but give them one that makes their lives easier and they will nurture it. It takes longer to achieve the later but this is what you must strive for.”

He is a founding member of PlanetMargate, a business established back in 2000 to provide a more controlled hosting environment for his and his partner Paul Bedford's clients.

Allan continues to expand his skill set through exploring new and emerging web methodologies. He also loves coffee.

I have migrated to professional web applications with Allan Dummer over the past five years. Our core business is photography but the environment requires expertise in many other fields such as finance, marketing, commerce and banking when venturing into international web-based commerce. Allan has shown a very strong, special knowledge of the internet cluster of industries and also an immediate grasp of all of these other fields.

Allan's way of building web sites and e-commerce is the only way; getting totally involved with the client and his business. Working in this environment with Allan has been a great learning curve and I would recommend his expertise to anyone who is serious about the future of their business.

Allan is one of the most focused and professional people I have ever worked with which has enabled us to complete all these projects successfully and on time.
