Re-design re-focus.
We are in the process of redesigning another site for one of our clients.
When this project began, the business owner wasn’t quite sure who his target audience was and what was the primary reason for having a website. In addition, the scope of his business has widened considerably and what we originally thought would [...]
SEO success.
As noted in a previous post , we took on the redesign of an existing site both to clean up the look — and to make the site more search engine-friendly.
Now, just two weeks after the site for Above Awnings launched, it ranks in the top 5 Google results for [...]
Website design inspirations.
Now and then, we use our main blog to showcase various websites that we find inspirational. Not only do these sites help motivate us but they also can be an effective way to show our clients the wide range of website possibilities.
Many business owners don’t have the time or the inclination to browse [...]
Above Awnings.
We just launched our newest site for Above Awnings in Anaheim in the heart of Orange County. They are a relatively small but venerable business, having sold, installed, repaired, and serviced awnings throughout the greater OC-Long Beach area for over a decade.
Their website is simple. They are not selling awnings online. [...]
Tubing the yoobs.
One of our clients elected to post a weekly series of short videos on the home page of their site. The videos are professionally produced and look great. There will eventually be 9 videos over the course of as many weeks.
Originally, we had planned to host and stream the videos on the [...]
Revival.
A client’s site — no, their complete web presence — is about to get a wake up call.
The website has been performing decently but nowhere near its potential. Visitor counts are sluggish and inquiries from the site have been leveling off. We and the site owner believe it can do better. So we [...]
Google. Bing. Yahoo. Shrug.
One of our newer client groups does not particularly care about SEO, search engine optimization, for their website. It is not at all vital that the general public see the site although they have no reason to hide it. They intend to continue marketing via traditional, offline methods. The website is a place to direct [...]
Grids.
A couple of our clients need to work with shared spreadsheets which are then displayed on their website. There are some classy paid solutions. However, if you are on a tighter budget, free services are available.
Google has no-cost collaborative spreadsheets as part of Google Docs.. But we have been using a product [...]
On hold.
Five of our web design projects are on temporary hold right now, mostly because the site owners need to shift attention elsewhere for the moment.
That is fairly standard — at least in our experience. And completely understandable. It would be nice if every website project went from start to finish without a snag [...]
Keeping us cool.
Our newest client is the owner of an awning sales and service company in central Orange County. They have a site now which is not performing nearly as well as it could on search engines.
Reworking an existing site for SEO is possible but clumsy. Making your site look sexy to Google is something [...]
