Media
Add items like video (through Quick Time or Flash) to your site - it can be a great way to bring products or ideas to life for your customers!
I can also add audio clips, or objects that move. Interactive Flash or animated gifs can easily be included.
With my services, there are no limits on how you communicate with your customers!
Give your organization that professional image by having e-mail addresses that match your domain.
I can set up and manage your domain e-mail accounts for you or I can provide access for you to manage them yourself. Create addresses like sales@yourbusiness.com to make sure e-mails always go to the right people.
There are many different options for setting up and managing your professional e-mail accounts, so please contact me to find out about all of your options. Please note: e-mail management is only an option for clients who use Lotus Petal Designs for hosting.
Full Service
I don’t just create your site, I can manage it for you as well!
I offer a full range of services from registering your domain name for you (www.yoursite.com) to managing your domain e-mail addresses (you@yoursite.com). And don't forget to check out our hosting services as well.
Flash
Flash is one of the hottest technologies for creating interactive sites!
It can add anything from a simple slideshow or animation all the way to a completely interactive site where everything on the page will respond to the mouse. I don't recommend full Flash sites for customers who are concerned about Search Engine Optimization.
I also can use javascript and other technologies to add movement to a site without Flash.
Social Media
Need help setting up a page on FaceBook or creating a Twitter account for your business? I can help! If you already have one set up, I can add links to your site to let customers easily follow you on these services.
Components of a web site
To help people understand web sites, I have created a Components of a Web Site page.
My years of experience in web design can bring your web project to life!
Let me work with you to create a site that fits your vision and your budget. I can upgrade existing sites or create a new one for your organization’s first expedition onto the World Wide Web.
Quality
Items like meta tags (helps search engines find your site) and customized contact forms (so customer information lands correctly in your inbox or database) are included when we create a full site for you.
I include all of the important details that make for a professional web presence. I even check for cross browser compatibility - so customers using browsers like Firefox or Chrome will still see your site as you intended. I help you to project the professional image you have worked to create for your organization.
Also, please note that all pages are hand coded so you will never get the kind of sloppy code that you get with designers who use a GUI interface like Dreamweaver or FrontPage. I have years of experience coding in HTML and CSS so clients get nothing but the best.
The Best Partners in the Business
Even though I have years of experience, I know I cannot do everything. When I partner with a business or programmer to develop your site, you can rest assured they are the best in their field. I have a great network of time tested professionals who can work with me to make sure your site is everything you need it to be.
Individual Service
I work with each client to make sure they get the service they need. You don't have to worry about fitting into a pre-determined package of services - each plan is developed individually. I will discuss your company's web site needs with you, and write out a proposal so we are on the same page and all costs are known before we get started.
