  Site Design and Support

  If you’ve never had a website and are now ready … or if you’d like to undertake a completely new direction for your internet presence, we can work with you to bring your ideas to life. Our expertise lies in translating your business and personal site needs into an online solution.

  	Content Management Systems A well-designed CMS will allow users to manage the majority of the content on their site – enabling frequent user-managed updates that don’t require ‘the web guy’ to complete. From personal blogs to fully-featured corporate sites, there’s almost certainly a CMS that will fit your need. We’re specialists in Joomla! and WordPress.
  	E-Commerce / Shopping Cart An online shopping cart provides the features necessary for online commerce – including product catalog, customer account management, real-time payment processing, integrated shipping, inventory, Gift Certificates, discount coupons, and more. Everything necessary to provide a 7×24 store for your customers to visit. Ask us about our Zen Cart solutions.
  	Discussion Forum Community An online discussion forum can help build a strong sense of community amongst your customer base and provide a valuable two-way channel for direct communication with your customers – through community-based product support, feature knowledge, and market intelligence discussion on YOUR site. We own and operate an Invision IP.Board forum with over 20,000 registered members – and can put that expertise to work for you.

  Custom Development

  It is sometimes necessary to go outside the ‘standard’ features of a website and create customized forms, interfaces, and applications to provide the complete solution for your site. We take a creative approach to solving these challenges – leveraging the broad skill set of our developers … while remaining focused on your business objectives.

  Technologies Used Include	In Our Toolbox

  Some of our recent custom development projects have included:

  • a system for collecting inventory transactions with a portable barcode scanner, then updating an E-Commerce database with those transactions.
  • a New Member Application form to collect information, custom field validation, and integration with the client’s Salesforce.com online database.
  • a WordPress-integrated database for storing and presenting member organization information – restricting info based on viewer permissions.
  • development of a document manager that allows upload of documents to the site, then download by users with document or project specific permissions.
  • a Flash-based piano keyboard menu, with XML configuration.

  Let’s sit down and talk about the ideas you’ve had for your site and how-best to bring them to life.
