Charlotte Kitto | Web Design | Cork | Duhallow | North Cork | Mallow | Kanturk | Cork City

My name is Charlotte Kitto. I do web design and marketing from my studio in North Cork, serving clients in Kanturk, Mallow, Cork City, Kinsale, Tipperary and other locations in Ireland and the UK.

I am a one stop shop for your business marketing and I charge affordable rates and try to save my clients money wherever I can. I provide many services, drawing on my varied career in the media, PR and marketing. I can work to a budget and produce simple but effective brochure websites as well as more complex e-commerce and online training sites.

I particularly love working with Wordpress, a powerful and versatile content management system.

As well as designing and programming websites I often help clients with content creation for their sites, I design logos where needed and sometimes produce press releases, business cards, newspaper adverts, posters and powerful graphics for use on social media.

I am a proficient photographer with a background in product and food photography and often take the photographs and video footage for clients to use on their sites and in other media.

Several of my websites have been nominated for awards.

I have worked with Charlotte on two separate projects, and both times she was just fantastic to have on board. Not only is she knowledgeable and professional, she also has an immensely positive, can-do attitude – which is even more important in my opinion. I now recommend her to other organisations any time I’m asked. She completely re-vamped and updated The Speech Centre website, created members and staff login areas, and boosted our Google search ratings. She also designed our online training course at www.dysphagiacaretraining.com from scratch, a huge project which she completed with dedication and efficiency, going the extra mile every time.

I have lived in Ireland since 1997. I spent two years working in electronics companies gaining training and experience in computers and database programming. I moved sectors and worked as coordinator for People in Need Cork in 2000 and again in 2004. From 2000 to 2003 I worked for RTE Digital developing my computer expertise further and I received training and experience in webdesign.

After my time with RTE, I worked in independent television production with Alchemy Electronic Arts. I have worked freelance doing webdesign, photography, marketing and PR for the past eight years.

As a freelance marketing professional I have worked with some of the top names in Irish food including McCarthys of Kanturk, East Ferry Farm, Ingredient Solutions and Diva Boutique Bakery. I do not only work with the food industry, I provide support to a wealth of different businesses and organisations including IRD Duhallow, as you will see from the portfolio below.

I have put together several online training websites the most recent being Dysphagia Care Training which provides training for health care staff.

I continue to do work for charity from time to time, including the coordination of a large garden festival in Wexford in 2005 and voluntary fundraising work for Christian Aid and Varanasi Children's Hospital in India. I am currently a mentor at the local CoderDojo - helping children to develop their coding skills.

In my spare time I enjoy various crafts and am a keen gardener and cook, with an extensive fruit and vegetable garden to keep me busy between jobs.

Collaboration

I enjoy collaborating on projects with other designers and marketing professionals. These include TV producer and visual artist David Bickley, superb graphic artist and old friend Phil Sootheran of Black Dog Industries and the talented artist Fiona Boniwell of Boniwell Graffik Arts in Kinsale.

I also worked in collaboration with the wonderful copywriter and graphic artist Eimear Gallagher of Word Works in Tipperary to create her website. And I have also collaborated with Enda OLooney with online training video elements.

I pride myself on producing bespoke designs which perfectly represent the client.

Please visit my clients' sites below to see the work that I do. I work for many clients on an ongoing basis building their PR campaigns, doing ongoing updates, monitoring user statistics and improving SEO. I also help to manage social media.

As a photographer and graphic designer, I can improve the effectiveness of campaigns with graphics and images.

I can also produce print media such as posters, brochures and business cards.
