- "Business Card" websites
This is the most basic website that a small business needs. Contact information, directions, phone numbers, mission statements...these are the kinds of things you see on business card sites. In fact, this is basically a business card website, if you don't include our blog. - "Content-Rich" websites
Content-rich websites have a lot more to them. They might have categories of information with sub-categories and sub-sub-categories. As a general rule, if your website includes 20 or more pages of information, it's probably a content-rich website.
Got products to sell? If you do, you'll probably need an E-Commerce website. These type of sites require shopping carts, payment gateways, individual item pages, and sometimes dynamic databases. We don't do a whole lot of complex database-building around here, but for basic stuff, we're your guys (and gals).- CMS-powered websites
WordPress, Blogger, TypePad, Drupal...these are Content-Management Systems. Basically, that's a fancy way of saying that they allow the site owner to add content easily without having to dig through code. Once you have a CMS in place, you will be able to do the majority of site maintenance yourself. If you're going to be adding content on a continual basis, this might be a good choice for you. - CMS-powered websites

- Logos
I don't have to tell you what a logo is. But I will because I like to hear myself talk. It's how your customers recognize your organization visually. - Buttons/Banners
Banners (and buttons, their smaller counterparts) are those annoying things that online advertisers are using to grab our attention these days. Except they don't have to be annoying. At any rate, banners quickly give a potential visitor a lot of information about your website, leading them to click...or not.
Search engine optimization/website promotion
Your website can be prettier and more helpful than Angelina Jolie, but if no one's visiting it, no one cares. Honestly. Which is why getting yourself out there is one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your business. We've got both long-term and short-term solutions to help you rise to the top. From SEO to paid advertising to search engine submission to sitemap building to link exchange promotion...we can come up with a plan that will give you a high return on your investment.Website maintenance
When your website is done, it's yours...to have and to hold from that day forward, til death do you part. When you need to add a new page or some new links, you are welcome to update it yourself or hire someone.However, we know that some people don't know HTML from Latin, and that's okay. So we offer contracted maintenance plans as well as hourly rates.
Other services
