Responsive DesignView one of our responsive designs. Be sure to adjust the page width to see how things change!
CSS3 gives us access to some basic information about a device, such as screen size, pixel density and color palette. Using this information, we can tailor the experience of your site for each device; on-the-fly. Building a responsive website ensures that your users will have the best possible experience, whether they are on a laptop, desktop, iPhone, iPad or android device. Depending on the size of the screen, your website layout will adapt to take advantage of the space, fonts will change size to appear more readable, layouts are modified at set intervals, and content added or removed to spec.
CMSContent Management Systems provide the ability to manage website content "on-the-fly" via web-based dashboards. No knowledge of HTML or other web languages is required and we teach you how to use any CMS we implement. Very similar to an MS Word interface, you likely already know most of what's necessary. We also build more elaborate systems that provide for permission-based access to secured areas of a website, allowing you to manage users, files or any number of server-side events. We'll collaborate with you to assess your needs and implement 3rd-party solutions or code one that's fits your specific requirement.
SEO / SEM / OptimizationWe primarily concentrate on organic search optimization and website performance to gain ranking at Google. Your site is tagged well, meta-data is avail. and the site is coded to perform. Lazy-loads, CSS and javascript minification and/or combining on-the-fly, images are 2nd gen (.webp, .svg), on and on. All of our website builds come with a standard optimization or we can perform this on any existing site. See optimization results before and after optimization (pdfs).
E-mail and Spam FilteringEmail security, especially that being used via any of today's CLOUD solutions (i.e. gmail, Office 365, yahoo, sbcglobal, hotmail, etc.) is increasingly lax, targeted by hackers and unwarranted access. Your email, and copies of them, are on many servers, none of which you have control of or even information about who has control or how they are being accessed. Read more about our email solutions, including the Barracuda Spam filter.
