About
My name is Mark Newton-Carter and I have the challenging task of managing this blog. I have long experience in building and running various websites and although I spend a lot of my time dealing with the technical side of websites, I am a designer at heart! I have my own web design company,and most of my time is spent updating, monitoring and maintaining www.madaboutjewellery.com, the online jewellery website that I started with my partner Jo Allen back in 2001.
As one of the UK’s leading high fashion jewellery websites, we are constantly updating our look and products according to the latest trends and we appear regularly in the fashion magazines and on GMTV’s “This Morning” . We also supply the jewellery for a myriad of high profile TV programmes.
It’s fun running a high fashion jewellery shop but it’s also a major challenge for myself and the Team to keep madaboutjewellery.com consistently high in the search engine rankings.
Apart from my love for computers and all their capabilities, I spend as much time as possible with my horses. I ride regularly and study Parelli Natural Horsemanship which is simply wonderful for developing a much greater understanding of horse personality (horsenality) and horse behaviour. I ride shoeless and bitless and the three basic principles of the system are love, language and leadership. As well as being fundamental to my relationship with horses, these principles apply to the whole of my life and my approach to the many challenges involving madaboutjewellery.com and website management in general. The outdoor life is a wonderful counterbalance to my sedentary life in front of a bank of computers!
Some of my other sites can be seen at www.designmark.co.uk.
