What people will see when they see you for the first time

     Looking good is important, but you also have to be compelling with what the site says, how it says it, and how it directs your visitors to the outcome you desire. Whether that means making a purchase, joining your group, requesting information, all of it needs to be simple and easy for anyone to navigate and understand.

 
 
The Functionality

We can provide most website processes you may need. We also build in web applications into websites if you want to maintain your own content, or ecommerce site, etc...

We can include custom forms that sends an email to you when submitted. Or any type of web based database applications.

 
 
 
   
 
The Look

     We want you to love the way your site looks. We have you surf the internet and find some examples of sites that look like what you like. We take that input along with your color preferences and we create a custom demo drawing of the site for you to look at. The demo drawing is a depiction of the site exactly how it will look live. You take a look, we make any modifications you may request, and then we build the website from it.
 
 
Site Maintenance

     After your website is built, it may require changes from time to time. Or it may require changes regularly. In either case we handle this for you. We offer a Retainer Client Program that basically allots a certain number of man hours per month to your site. This makes sure we are available quickly for customers who need crucial changes quickly. Contact us about or Retainer Program for more details.
 
 
 
 
Fast loading graphics

     We try to make your site outstanding, but we also go to great lengths to test the design in multiple browsers, in multiple screen resolutions, making sure the page looks good and operates correctly.  We also design the graphics, the code, and the overall site to load quickly even on slow connections.

 
 
Squishy

     In some cases, we can make the site literally expand and contract to fit the screen size on any monitor. All of our sites look correct at any resolution, but if we can make it expand and contract - we do.
 
 
 
 
Web Applications

     You may have heard of web applications such as WordPress or Joomla, or OSCommerce. These are pre-built web applications that are free. We often customize these web applications creating custom websites with them. If you think a blog, or forums, or content management system is what you need, we can help you with some very powerful tools.
 
 
 
And the boring details

There are a number of things you need to consider before you have your site designed. You want a website that is "designed" to do whatever it is you want it to do. For instance if your primary goal is to sell something, then you use text and graphics and page design and code to systematically "walk" the visitor toward a purchase. This is business strategy. Without it, your site is less likely to produce the results you want.

Appealing Appearance
One of our primary advantages is to be able to come up with compelling graphics work for our customers. From logos to site skins, we create 100% of the artwork and graphics you see in the sites we've designs. It's more than just want to produce something compelling, it's just that we put our brand on our work and we want whatever has our brand on it to be the best available.

Website Graphics must load quickly.
We design the graphics in such a way that they are "lighter" in weight. If you send us a picture from your digital camera, it's going to be heavy, usually 2 to 5 Mega Bytes in weight. An image that size will take as long as 45 seconds to load even on a broadband connection. Anything taking more than 30 seconds will probably not be seen. People do not wait. We take that image and "squeeze" the weight out of it while usually improving the picture quality. All of the graphics in our sites are done this way. We also use "sliced" images for repeating backgrounds reducing a single image by 800%. This is something that we do everyday, it's a built in process for us, so our site pages will always load fast.

Optimized for Search Engines
We use techniques in build the sites pages that will help generate better search engine results for your web pages. We have several customer sites with Top of page 1 results in Google and other top search engines.
Optimizing a website for search engine indexing means:

  • Your site will be listed on Search Engines much faster and more often.

  • Your site will appear in search results for your local area for your keyword phrases.

  • Your website will more likely appear in searches related to your keywords and keyword phrases.

Keep in mind that there is a difference between Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing. The optimization aspect is built into the site pages and makes it where the site is properly indexed and easily found. Search Engine Marketing is the process of generating traffic from search engines by using specific methods over a period of time.

Monitor Resolution considerations
When the visitor sees your site, it needs to look good - not be half visible, real narrow, or out of shape.

What is a visitor viewing the site at?

  • 42% of visitors will be viewing your site on a Home Desktop Monitor at 1024 Pixels Wide

  • 55& of the visitors will see your site on a Home Desktop 1280 Pixels Wide

  • Laptop users will range from 1280 Pixels to 1680 Pixels wide

We design our websites to look good at any resolution. In some cases, we make the site expand and contract to fit any monitor resolution.
