Accessible. Direct.
Did you go to pay your bill today or access your corporate intranet for some information, only to be confronted by a whirling carousel of icons? Was the content you were interested in lost in a collage of inspirational images? Did you visit a web website on your phone, only to then check it later on your laptop or desktop to find images had exploded into endless pages of full screen images, making the website unusable?
Do you want a website that avoids these issues that drive away your audience?
We've used numerous content creation tools over the decades—but we don't use them just because we can. We don't animate everything on your page (as below) just because we can. Every second that someone is waiting for something to fade or swoop in or out is a second you're not engaging visitors to your site.
Our designs embody our mission: directness in conveying and accessing pertinent information, tastefully presented without overbearing bells and whistles that don't add value. Our goal is to communicate your competencies and capabilities, not promote ourselves by relegating your content to second place.
Useful. Facilitating.
When visitors come to your website, whether you are a service, an institution, a brick-and-mortar,... are you promoting the latest news about yourself, or are you providing information that is useful to your visitors and prospective clients? What information are you providing to facilitate their engaging or joining you? We cannot take credit for the following, only that we recognize the experience as one of our own. Perhaps it speaks to you too!
(credit: Randall Munroe/xkcd)- What brings visitors to your website?
- Do you have/can you provide what they are searching for?
- Do you make it easy to find?
Ultimately, website visitors aren't that interested in you. But they are very much interested in what you can do for them.
Sincere. Honest.
Qualities often lost in the rush to generate market hype. When everyone has the same slick message, how do you communicate you're not just another “pretender?”
Our commitment to you, our client, is:
- To get to know you. We spend the time to understand you, your voyage, your destination.
- To experience you. Sampling your products and services. Attending a fund-raiser or other event if you are an organization. Reviewing your current and past marketing or communications materials. We maximize the impact of your message when we can compose your content with the perspective and clarity that comes from getting to know your company or organization: your people, your message, your point of view.
- To capture and reflect your uniqueness and individuality. We insure the pictures, graphics, copy, and style of the web website or materials we create for you reflect you, your company and employees, your organization and members. To build a web website that looks and feels like you. Clipart, skins, and templates are placeholders and shortcuts—not products.
- In short, to meet your needs and objectives in understanding, formulating and communicating your message.
Predictable. Stable.
The WordPress™ error every web website owner dreads! Instead of seeing your home page, staring at this plain text message on an otherwise blank screen:

We have decades of experience building websites, starting with HoTMetaL to code HTML directly, moving on to Macromedia Dreamweaver when that was cutting edge, then building our pre-WordPress™ (also) PHP-based content manager both for dynamic menus and to code what "styles" could not yet do, let alone being tired of tools which broke websites across “major releases.” We started out on small
The proliferation of devices with browsers is the greatest threat to legacy websites. If you have an existing "mobile unfriendly" website, we specialize in refactoring your website to have a consistent look and feel, and to display and function appropriately on all devices without needing to maintain separate content for different-sized displays.
We provide design, content, hosting, and related photographic and graphical services. Each customer solution is unique. We offer discounts for non-profits, referrals, and referrers.
