Web Site Design & Development

Web site design and development encompass a vast array of skills, tools and technologies. True, with only cursory skills, virtually anyone can create their own web site. But a truly engaging, effective and productive web site requires much more.

Interface Design & Web Site Usability

Creating the right "look and feel" for your web site and giving it the professional appearance it deserves, is one of our guiding design directives. Studies show a web site's appearance is one of, if not the most important aspect influencing a visitors decision making process. The look of a professionally designed web site builds confidence in visitors—confidence that you provide a quality product or service, encouraging them to become, not just visitors, but clients.

Web site usability is an often overlooked and little understood area. Have you ever been frustrated by being unable to find what you're searching for on a web site? Usability impacts how long a visitor stays on your site, if they find what they're looking for, if they will return, and if they make a purchase.

Content Development

The quality of our crafted content is second to none. We understand the personal approach to which the web user best responds. The viewing and reading patterns of the savvy web user vary greatly from those of a casual reader. The delivery of your written message must be succinct while being engaging and informative in order to reach the web audience.

Illustration & Photography

Communication is an art not limited to words. Professional illustration and photography enhance a web site's quality and engages the viewer. The proper illustrations and photography support your message and further inform the viewer. The internet is a visual medium. Quality visuals are a must.

Flash Technology

A well designed and implemented Flash site can be both entertaining and informative. By using Flash technology a combination of animation, sound, video, and interactivity can be delivered to your web site visitor.

You don't have to build a Flash only web site to reap it's benefits. We create Flash components for any web site, generating visual interest that keeps your audience's attention and your web site fresh. Visit our Flash Examples section to see how Flash can be used in a broad range of apllications.

Flash technology also goes beyond the visual aspects so commonly thought of. Flash's capabilities extend into the realm of web site applications and data delivery. Learn more about dynamic web applications using Flash in our Web Applications section.

Dynamic Web Sites

First generation sites, created strictly with HTML and referred to as "static" sites, had to be updated manually, page by page. If you wanted to "freshen up" the look of the site or add a new section it was costly and time consuming. The more pages the bigger the problem. Those days are long gone thanks to dynamic web site design .

The site you're viewing is an example of a dynamic web site. We've designed it to be flexible, easily to date and simple to maintain. By using a combination of DHTML, CSS, Coldfusion, and SQL database–a single change will be reflected instantly on every page whether there are 8 or 800 pages. Gone are the days of updating each page one at a time. News and time sensitive items are automatically updated dynamically by a database. Learn more about dynamic sites under Web Applications.
