Why do you need a professional
web design & development company?
Here are just a few
reasons...
Cutting Edge Knowledge and
Capabilities
Computer technology changes in
leaps and bounds in a very short period of time. What was impossible or
unworkable a year ago is commonplace today. Where will the technology be
tomorrow? You don’t have to worry… because we stay on top of the cutting
edge technologies that you’ll want to know about and possibly take advantage
of on your site. Plus, every web site we design is tested in all popular
browsers, ensuring that your visitors experience your site the way you
intended for them. In addition, we have all the latest tools to take
advantage of virtually any technology that is out there today.
Excellent User Interface and Page
Layout
Finding information on your site
should be easy and intuitive. We’ll take the time to design a fun, easy to
use, professional navigation scheme that will keep your visitors in touch
with the information they seek and keep them coming back for more in the
future. We’ll also be sure to set up each page with the right balance of
text, graphics and special effects so your visitors are certain to get you
company’s message clearly and in an enjoyable, interesting way.
Graphics Expertise
This is one of the most
complicated parts of putting together an attractive web site. It’s
complicated because one must create graphics that looks crisp and clean on
the visitor’s screen even though those visiting will probably all have their
screens configured to different settings and be viewing with different
browsers.
For example: We know...
-
when to use .gif and when to
use .jpg images (or other formats.)
-
how to set color depth,
compression, and color palettes for maximum quality
on differently
configured computers
-
how to optimize for
different screen resolutions
-
how to optimize images for
fast downloads over slower connections without
losing image quality
-
how to design for browsers
that display images differently.
-
how to create animated .gifs
-
how to develop graphical
image maps
-
how to create transparency
-
how to locate images
accurately on the page
-
the best text-wrap styles
These are only some of the
factors that must be understood and considered
as a site is designed.
The "Tricks of the
Trade"
There are many situations that
go unanticipated by the casual designer that must be taken into account. For
example: There is no guarantee that the visitor will begin at your home
page. A poorly designed site will neglect to take this into consideration
resulting in a visitor being unable to navigate to the beginning of the
site. This would be an unfortunate, missed opportunity. Also, there are many
"tricks or the trade" that can only be acquired by time and experience in
the profession.
Web Applications
Web applications are a growing demand in today’s
businesses. By adding a web interface to your existing database or creating a
new web application, you allow for a more expandable, cross-compatible and
cost-effective system.

Updates Are
Important
Effective web sites are
interesting and enjoyable because they are updated often. Updates take time...
time that would take you away from your core business and could impact your
long-term success. A meticulously maintained site is a site people will
return to and stay at. You can take advantage of small updates which are
free or, for larger updates or additions, we offer reasonable maintenance
rates.

If You
Already Have a Web Site...
If you have a site already,
perhaps you could use our professional maintenance service or you may be
interested in a complete re-design. In either case, upon your request, we
will make recommendations as to what kinds of changes or additions would
make your site the most effective it can be.
