Website Design
Template Design
This is the fastest, and most inexpensive solution. You can
purchase a template through our site, then email it to
us. Or you can let us choose a template for you. We customize the
template and add your colors and identity to make it truly
unique.
Custom Design
Let us know about a few sites that have design elements that you want
to have on your own site. We'll build your site from scratch, integrate
your chosen design elements, and add your colors and identity.
Getting Started
You can send us your text and photos in just about any electronic
format. Or you can mail it to us. We'll work with what you have.

- Creating a new design
- Integration of your logo and colors
- Integration of your chosen design elements
- Telephone and e-mail consultation
- HTML validation
Website Redesign
Time to renew an old design? Or fix a poor design? This is typically considered a redesign, since the effort of creating the text and the navigation structure has already been done.
How it works:
Once a new design is agreed upon on a test page, we'll apply the
design to the entire site.
Website Redesign Includes:
- Applying a new design
- Integration of your logo and colors
- Integration of your chosen design elements
- Telephone and e-mail consultation
Website Maintenance
If you make any updates to your site each month, a monthly maintenance package will save you money. Design firms typically charge up to $60 an hour for design work. Should you ever need to change or add content and introduce new products or services, you can expect to pay hundreds of dollars per incident! We can help by routinely keeping your site fresh for a fixed cost. You'll always know in advance what you will be paying for updates to your site, and you can count on the updates on a recurring, planned schedule.
If the content of your website is old and seldom updated, visitors will notice and will seldom return. Keeping your website updated allows you to drive traffic to your site via newsletters and other marketing tools. New content is the number one reason your customers will return to your site. Once customers are visiting often to check for new content they tend to spread the word, increasing your customer base.
If you wish to enroll in our Monthly Maintenance program, a low
monthly fee of $150 is required. No additional charges or hourly design
fees will be charged for routine updates. A minimum of three (3) months
must be agreed to for the Monthly Maintenance program.
Monthly Maintenance Includes:
- Adding and updating products and news
- Updating prices an graphics for promotions
- Other updates we recommend and you approve
Logo/Identity Design
Your identity on the web plays a big role in brand awareness. A poorly planned and designed website will hurt your company's image, whereas a good one will increase sales.
The ability for your customers to recognize and identify with your message is crucial to your success. The logo and colors you pick should be used in all your marketing materials including website, brochures, business cards, etc.
Identity Design Includes:
- Defining a color palette
- Designing a logo and establishing a brand identity
- Branding all your marketing materials
Graphic Design
Graphics help to draw and capture the attention of visitors. When used correctly, they inspire confidence and familiarity. When used incorrectly, they bog down load time and visual appeal.
Graphic Design Includes:- Technical drawings
- Block diagrams
- Scanning, cleaning, and optimizing
- Logo and branding work
Multimedia
User interaction with your website allows a more pleasurable and intuitive user experience. Static text is good for reading, but when you want interactivity, Flash animation is a great choice. Building an entire site in Flash is not recommended because Flash contents cannot be optimized for a search engine.
Flash Design Includes:- Animated logo
- Intro animation
- Animated navigation
- Custom photo gallery
- Streaming video
- Animated banner ads
Audio / Video Streaming Includes:
- RealAudio
- RealVideo

Electronic Mailing List /
Newsletter
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article
'Electronic mailing list'.
An Electronic Mailing List, a type of Internet forum, is a special
usage of e-mail that allows for widespread distribution of information
to many Internet users. It is similar to a traditional mailing list — a
list of names and addresses — as might be kept by an organization for
sending publications to its members or customers, but typically refers
to four things: a list of e-mail addresses, the people ('subscribers')
receiving mail at those addresses, the publications (e-mail messages)
sent to those addresses, and a reflector, which is a single e-mail
address that, when designated as the recipient of a message, will send
a copy of that message to all of the subscribers.
Keeping in touch with your customers is paramount. Your users will
want to know when you have something to say, as long as its relevant,
and up to date. You can have more than one newsletter so your visitors
can subscribe to the one they want.
Mailing Lists Include:
- Automated opt-out capability for your newsletter(s) as required by federal law
- A web interface to write and send messages, and manage your newsletter(s)
- Ability to manage mailing lists with hundreds of thousands of subscribers
- Open/View Tracking that tells you how many users opened your email message
- Click Tracking tracks links and URLs. Statistics can be viewed by message, URL or subscriber
- Ability to specify what information you need to get from users when they subscribe
- Ability to personalize each message with the subscribers name, country, or any other attribute
- Bounce Processing keeps your database clean of unused and non-existent email addresses
- CSV Import and Export. Use CSV and tab delimited files to import your existing list of users
Web Applications
Often the web is used for applications, not just information display. Examples include a simple form where you might enter your address and credit card information or a full-blown application for renewal of a service.
We consider the users point of view as most important in designing a User Interface. When we consider the users point of view, we ask the following questions:
- What navigation path is typically followed?
- Is anything distracting, or broken?
- What if anything is already working well?
- Is the interface consistent?
Some User Interface engineering techniques that we utilize include market research, questionnaires, interviews, heuristic evaluation, usability testing, and observation.
UI Design Includes:
- Understand end-user expectations, goals, and constraints
- Keeping the number and size of graphics to a minimum and use CSS to increase speed
- Accessibility no matter the resolution or font size setting
- The use of icons and colors to speed repetitive actions
- Keeping the number of steps for the popular actions to a minimum
- Different views based on security level
- Site-wide context and navigation controls at all times
- Consistent navigation controls
Content Management
System
This excerpt is licensed under
the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia
article 'Content management system'.
A Content Management System is used to manage a dynamic collection
of web material (HTML documents and their associated images):
Automated Templating: One central place to change the
look across all content on the site.
Easily Editable Content: WYSIWYG editing tools allow
non-technical individuals to create and edit content.
Scalable Feature Sets: Most CMS have plug-ins or
modules that can be easily installed to extend an existing site's
functionality.
Web Standards Upgrades: Regular updates are available
that include new feature sets and keep the system up to current web
standards.
Workflow management: For example, a content creator
submits a story but it's not published on the website until the copy
editor cleans it up, and the editor-in-chief approves it.
Document Management: Provides a means of managing the
lifecycle of a document from initial creation time, through revisions,
publication, archive, and document destruction.
Forum
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia
article 'Internet forum'.
A Forum is used for holding discussions and posting user generated content. Forums differ from mailing lists in that mailing lists automatically deliver new messages to the subscriber, while forums require the member to visit the website. Forums, unlike wikis, do not allow people to edit other's messages. Some users, however, may be given this ability in order to moderate content. Unlike blogs, forums typically allow anyone to start a new discussion, or reply to an existing thread.
Blog
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia
article 'Blog'.
A Blog is a user-generated website where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order. Blogs often provide commentary or news on a particular subject, such as food, politics, or local news; some function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs.
Gallery
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article
'Gallery Project'.
A Gallery enables simple management and publication of photographs and other digital media. Photo management includes automatic thumbnails, resizing, rotation, and flipping, among other things. Albums can be organized hierarchically and individually controlled by administrators or privileged users.
Image galleries are important for many types of web sites. The most obvious would be a collection of photos, or artwork to showcase a portfolio. We can assist you in creating an image gallery that best suits your style and matches your visitors expectations.
Image Galleries Include:
- Scanning of Photos
- Cleanup
- Optimization for file size
- Cropping of image if needed
- Creation of thumbnails
- Naming hierarchy
Wiki
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia
article 'Wiki'.
A Wiki is a website that allows the visitors themselves to easily
add, remove, and otherwise edit and change some available content,
sometimes without the need for registration. This ease of interaction
and operation makes a wiki an effective tool for mass collaborative
authoring.
Issue tracking systems
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article
'Issue tracking system'.
Issue tracking systems manage and maintain lists of issues, as
needed by an organization. Issue tracking systems are commonly used to
create, update, and resolve reported customer issues, or even issues
reported by that organization's employees. An issue tracking system
often also contains a knowledge base containing resolutions to common
problems.
Live Support
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article
'Live support software'.
Live Support software is an instant messaging application designed
specifically to provide online assistance to users of a web site. The
software enables the administrator or webmaster of a web site to
receive and respond to text communication from multiple users of the
web site. Website visitors don't have to install anything on their PC's
and they can communicate freely with website's online agents.
Project Management
Systems

collaboration, communication and documentation, which are used to deal
with the complexity of large projects. Web-based project management
systems can be accessed from any type of computer without installing
software, have easy access-controls, are naturally multi-user, and
require only one software version and installation to maintain.

Custom Programming
A form is a great way to capture information via your website. One of the most important uses for a form is a spam-resistant contact form. It enables your visitors to email you while keeping the spammers away. Spammers will simply harvest your email address and add it to their mailing lists if it's publicly available. So we use some security measures and some human verification to ensure the person contacting you is legit.
You can also use forms to:
Screen applicants
Qualify leads
Send to multiple addresses
Grant access to protected areas
Gather information such as surveys
- Multiple fields
- Hidden Recipient(s)
- Capture data about sender
- Designed to match your site
- Secure E-mail Script
An Image Slideshow will add a dynamic image slideshow feature to your site. Images can be set to automatically change randomly or sequentially or images can be selected manually from thumbnail images or navigation buttons.
Scrolling Text will give you a way to fit a section of text and images into a space where it normally wouldn't fit. Adjustable scrolling and pausing features will attract and keep the attention of visitors.
Copywriting
This excerpt is licensed under the GNU Free
Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article
'Copywriting'.
Copywriting is the process of writing the words that promote a person, business, opinion, or idea. The main purpose of writing this marketing copy, or promotional text, is to persuade the listener or reader to act – to buy a product or subscribe to a certain viewpoint, for instance.
If you don't already have text you want to use on your website, we can write it for you. Or we can rewrite what you already have to achieve higher rankings in search engines. Often referred to as content writing, copywriting includes the strategic placement and repetition of keywords and keyword phrases on webpages. As search-engine algorithms get smarter every day, this search engine optimization (SEO) copywriting is more and more about writing for human visitors as well as for search engines, about offering fluent and readable content written in a SEO-wise manner.
Site Search will provide your visitors with a familiar search box that will allow them to quickly search the content of your site with keywords they specify.
