Hmmm. You have limited experience, so potential employers are going to
have to use your academic background as a guide instead, and quite
frankly, your A level results are going to make your life difficult on
that front. So you really need to place emphasis on the experience you
do have. I'd expand the projects section, going into more detail about
what customizing you do for the web hosting, for example. Also,
mentioning dgson.co.uk on a CV isn't a good idea when all it does is
redirect to an unreachable URL. If you're using it as an advert for
your skills, then you absolutely *have* to make sure it's up and
available when a potential employer might want to look at it...
