WordPress Custom Website Design & Development
Every website we create is based on good design, user experience and web standards. That means that your website will not only be visually appealing, but will be developed in a way that makes it easy to maintain, quick to load and search engine friendly. We test all of our websites across browsers and on both PCs and Macs to insure that they display properly for the broadest audience. In addition, all of our sites are now designed to be responsive - that is, they will provide an optimal viewing experience across a wide range of devices (desktop, tablets, phones, etc.).
Before we begin to develop a website, we work with our client to understand the qualities that make their company or organization unique. This understanding is fundamental to the original design that we create. Each design is created to uniquely represent a specific company or organization on the web.
Please take a look at our portfolio to see some of the websites we have designed.
E-Commerce Website Design & Development
Setting up an online store is usually more complicated than the average website project. We can develop an online store for you with a user friendly administration panel that will allow you to manage your store.
We can help you with the many decisions that need to be made when setting up an e-commerce website, and assist in setting up the proper kind of hosting for your store.
Website Lite
If you need to get your site up fast or require a more economical approach to getting your website up and running we offer Website Lite. Instead of developing your site using a completely custom design you can select from a large number of commercially available WordPress "themes" that we will use to set up your site. Your logo will be added to the site and some minimal changes to fonts, colors and backgrounds can be made to coordinate the site with your branding.
This approach cuts down dramatically on the design and development time of your site and as a result the overall cost. You will still have a website you can update yourself, and when you are ready for that custom design a custom WordPress theme can be developed for your site. All of your website content would remain in place and just the visual design of your site would change.
Content Management Systems & Blogs
Many website owners want the ability to update the content of their websites themselves. A small additional investment can translate into significant savings to you over time because it reduces the need to involve your website designer in most site updates. In addition, it allows you to keep your site content fresh, which encourages visitors to return to your site, and can improve your site's ranking with search engines.
Blogs or news pages are an excellent way of building a community around your website. They allow you to disseminate information, and give vistors a way to interact with your website, with you or your business, and with other visitors to you site.
Website Optimization & Search Engine Optimization
A website must be accessible to search engines before it can rank well with them. Our websites are developed following the guidelines established by the search engines to give them the best chance of ranking well, and elements that assist in targeting your key search terms are always included in our sites.
We can work with you to improve your website's search engine ranking for your key search phrases, and can advise you on paid internet marketing programs as well.
Domain Registration & Hosting Setup
We can assist you in the process of selecting a domain name, registering it and setting up your website's hosting.
We do not host on our own servers, but prefer to recommend a few excellent web hosting companies to our clients. Hosting is the only business of these companies, and they are all committed to the best pricing, features and services. One of the hosts we recommend is environmentally friendly and uses wind power.
All of the hosts we recommend offer free domain registration and free setup with their hosting packages. See out hosting page for details.
Website Redesign
The Internet changes rapidly, and web styles change along with it. If your website is starting to look dated perhaps you should consider a redesign. A website that has an updated look and incorporates up-to-date features helps to attract and keep visitors. While your website is getting a new look we can evaluate its information architecture, navigation and content to see if they would also benefit from redesign and revision.
Website Maintenance
In order for a website to remain relevant and give visitors a reason to return, it needs to be updated from time to time. If a website never changes, visitors will stop returning. Search engines also look at how often a website is updated, and take that into consideration when they determine rankings.
In addition, website software needs to be updated from time to time to keep your site secure and functioning properly, and site backups need to be performed on a regular basis. Just like a car or a home, regular maintenance is necessary to keep things running smoothly and prevent major problems.
If you don't have the time to perform these website maintenence tasks, we can do them for you. Website maintenance can be done on a cost per basis or, if you have recurring website maintenance requirements, we can work up a monthly maintenance plan for you.
