website re-design, design, creation & management

There are a million websites out there - and another million folks who can code in html. It takes a special eye and talent to put all the right pieces together and make it look easy and cohesive -- telling a story and connecting with your audience on an emotional level.
As an entrepreneur, I understand the needs of running a business. Sometimes, I want someone who is capable, whom I can trust to "just do it" and take care of the task at hand. Other times, when I am not marred by deadlines, I'd like to be able to open up a project and change a few things here and there.
The website design projects I create run the gamut from full service (where you ask for it to be done and it gets done) to allowing you to make simple changes without me, without a problem. You have the promise that I will be available if anything comes up on any project that I've initiated.
Many of our clients have an outdated website that they wish to update and re-do. This is both fun and exciting...Updating your website is nothing short of a whole new "storefront" - it draws attention, pulls people in, and improves business! When you update your website, Search optimization tools will be implemented to get you in front of your customer (see below for additional information).
Services that can be handled in part of in whole are the following:
technical website address/online set up: I handle all the technical details on your behalf to get you set up for an online presence. Details may include: Domain Name Selection & Registration, Hosting, Email Boxes, etc.
website design: We will create a website that suits you and your business needs in the industry and service you provide. If you don't love it, we don't love it! Everyone wants a great looking website, but there is so much more to design than putting pieces together. My designs incorporate over 20 years of branding and marketing experience and expertise. My websites are based on the brand of a company or individual, the information you wish to convey to current and prospective clients, and your target audience. It needs to be clear, concise, and engaging...and look "buttoned up."
content development: A great looking website can help instill the emotion of the brand, but ultimately, it’s a vehicle for information. It’s all about the content. The key to an incredible website is not only the quality of the content, but how easy it is to access and how valuable and compelling it is for your audience. I work with copywriters skilled in the art and science of writing copy for the web and photographers who know how to get the right shot to tell the story.
maintenance: We will happily maintain your website for you or train you on how to make changes.
community development & content management systems (CMS): Be able to quickly update information and stay connected with their audience. Create an online community through your very own website. We can help create a blog that will you can keep updated with news and updated service offerings. I can recommend suitable CMS options to enable you to easily get around - it all just depends on what you need.
search engine optimization: Getting found online is a constant battle. Keeping up with all that entails is a science and full time job by itself. This is why I work with a team of full time SEO folks who know the science and processes to get your website ranking well. Together, we work with clients to decide on a plan that fits their needs and Brand. This could be keyword and meta data, site mapping and search engine submission, copy writing and editing. We also gather the stats and help you make sense of them, so you can see what’s going on with your site and see the bigger picture.
social media: Social media has become an incredible tool for businesses to build their brand when used correctly. It can also lead to disaster...The opportunity to connect directly with everyday customers from anywhere in the world, and engage them emotionally is priceless. Solid Social Media presence is worth an investment, even if only your time. I work with the people who live and breathe this stuff. Together, we can develop a plan to meet your goals and set you up with the tools and know-how to make it happen. Social Media is not going away, iit’s growing. So why not make it work for you. We can show you how.
You may be as involved or as 'hands-off' as you wish.
