Having a website is a prerequisite for doing business in the internet age. Every
business needs one to communicate with existing customers and reach new ones. Every
non-profit organization needs one in order to serve their constituency. Everyone
knows this but all too often they field ineffective web presences that fail to represent
their organizations well.
The term "websites" can mean many things, from the simplest of one-pager web brochures
to complex interactive web applications. No matter the size there is a huge difference
between an effective website and one which doesn't really help you achieve your
objectives. With over 15 years experience building websites we have the knowledge
and skills necessary to develop a truly effective website for you that will help
you promote your brand, communicate with your customers, build a community, sell
your products or services, and more.
Our Approach
Our goal in every website project is to minimize cost without compromising on quality
or features. In order to do this we have developed an extensive toolbox that enables
us to create more in less time. Some web design firms will attempt to shoehorn your
needs into the only system they know, but we've been doing this long enough to be
able to choose, and execute, the best possible technical approach for your situation.
design / develop / integrate
Because your website serves as the first impression for many of your potential customers
it is extremely important that the aesthetic design of your site professional and
compelling. We use a combination of in-house artists, freelance artists, and stock
art to develop rich and impactful designs. We can even work directly with your own
artist, if you have one, to ensure your corporate image is successfully conveyed
in your website.
design / develop / integrate
We have been developing websites since such a thing existed and in that time we
have accumulate an extensive toolbox that includes all of the internet's foundational
technologies such as HTML, CSS, ASP, JSP, PHP, JavaScript and more. We add to that
our first-class custom software development capabilities to provide you with endless
possibilities for achieving your goals.
design / develop / integrate
One of the best ways to include valuable interactive functionality in your website
is to take advantage of commercially-available third-party components and open-source
projects that can be integrated into your site. This is an extremely cost-effective
way to extend the capabilities of your website quickly. We have extensive experience
integrating such components to give our customers more for less.
No Limits
In simple brochure websites, such as this one, the
emphasis is on delivering clear, concise messages through the copy, while at the
same time presenting the appropriate impression of your organization though artwork
and layout. However, the web is also a wonderfully powerful medium with endless
possibilities for more complex and creative features to enhance the user experience
at your website. With our background in custom software development we can create
anything you can think of, from online demos of your product, to data-driven
web applications. Share your vision with us… we can make it a reality.
Examples
In addition to our own logo, branding materials and website design several other
good examples of our work in this area include:
Forklift Training Pro
We reworked an existing logo and developed a complete set of branding elements to
match. We used those elements in the commercial software product Forklift Training
Pro 2008, in their new e-commerce-enabled brochure website as well as the web-based
version of their product FTPOnline.

Russell Track Consultants
Russell Track Consultants had no logo when they came to us for a brochure website
so we had to develop it from scratch. We then developed an extremely simple, yet
effective, brochure site based on it.
eliteSES
eliteSES is one of our venture projects so we are responsible for everything that
has been developed for this "client", including the logo, branding, and website.
