Web
From a single page custom site to Wordpress MU (multi-user) communities, we will work with you to make your vision a reality—no matter what stage your site is in. We can assist you and your team on any single aspect of your site’s evolution, from concept and design to architecture and development, or do it completely in-house from beginning to end. We are happy to take over where others have left off.
We work with you, not against you, and we’ll keep you in the loop. We know our clients have differing levels of expertise with the internet, and no matter where you stand we’ll make sure you understand the process and why we’re doing what we’re doing. Before your site is live, we’ll make sure you are comfortable operating/updating the site on your own. Or, if you’re absolutely hopeless or hopelessly absent, we’ll be happy to maintain and update the site for you for a set monthly fee.
Love your host? No problem—we’ll make sure you’re getting the most for your money.
Don’t love your host? We can recommend a few that you will.
Want to keep your designer? No problem. We can (and do) work with anyone, anywhere—including ourselves. Hablamos Español.
Orphaned sites: Previous designer/developer move on? Are site-updates taking you away from running your business? We can take over your website at any stage, from dream to nightmare.
What we offer: Attractive and stable websites, valid and SEO-friendly code, excellent customer service and regular backups.
SEO: We do the little things behind the scenes to make sure search engines have all the information they need to place your site at the top of the rankings. In addition, all our websites have analytics tools installed to ensure our clients have all the information they need about their visitors and their site to make intelligent decisions. We can also provide monitoring services to let you know when your website is down.
Any other questions? Just ask us.
- Wordpress:
Why reinvent the wheel?
We leverage the power of Open Source to save you money. Instead of writing custom scripts and software from the beginning, we let the Crowd do the talking and look for Open Source tools that suit your needs—giving you stability, functionality and good design on a budget. And while good artists borrow and great artists steal, we do neither—we give credit where credit is due and properly license all scripts and plug-ins for use on your site.
More than just a blog.
Wordpress has quickly become the CMS (Content Management System) of choice for artists and small businesses for several reasons, but price, flexibility and stability are at the top.
Price: How’s free sound?
Flexibility: As well as offering incredibly powerful blogging features, WordPress now allows the seamless addition of Event Calendars, E-Commerce features and custom database functionality of more complex (and expensive to develop) CMS software like Drupal or Joomla!, making Wordpress an ideal choice for individuals and organizations looking to serve an easy-to-use dynamic website.
Stability: WordPress is literally used by millions of people every, both at wordpress.com and at other self-hosted sites (like this one).
- E-commerce:
-
From Zero to Hero we will custom taylor an e-commerce package to fill your needs whether you’re wanting to start an online business or migrate your existing business online. These are our top recommendations:
Zero: E-Junkie’s Fat Free Shopping Cart offers a choice of PayPal or Google Checkout for your customers—and it’s completely free.
To: E-Junkie’s more sophisticated paid-cart features multiple shipping options, taxing, discounts, sophisticated digital download management and affiliate programs. If you’re using Wordpress, we love Shoppe, the brand new E-commerce plug-in by InGenesis Limited.
Hero: If you’re really going for it and have your own merchant account, we offer custom Magento installations to ensure the long-term success of your thriving e-store.
- Partners and Affiliates:
-
Through the years we’ve found many companies we like to work with.
Here are a few of them:
- Digital Production: Audio/Video
-
Media-intense website? We can handle it. With 10 years of experience in audio/video compression and encoding, we can make your existing footage look great on the web without breaking the bank on bandwidth.
Sure, we can “fix it in post,” but success begins at the shoot. For clients who do not have existing audio or video, we offer full-service web-specialized multimedia production for (almost) any budget, ensuring your media perfectly integrates into your site and your message.
- Custom Still Photography
-
Images make websites pop. Photography not only illustrates, but adds texture, emotion and flair to an otherwise mediocre site. The right photograph can make your visitors relate to you and your company stronger and in new ways.
Stock photos can be the perfect choice in many cases—inexpensive and readily-available—however, when you want something special, something personal, something a little bit more genuine, we will get you just what you need.
