February design deal, yes it’s a few days early
We couldn’t wait to bring this news to you, so we’re letting out early. wp.website.design would like to offer you a website for $500 that you’ll be able to maintain yourself. Other companies are charging $299 or more for limited 2 or 3 page websites that have absolutely ZERO potential to bring your site recognition among the search engines. You’ll also have to pay that company more money to continuously maintain your website. Is that really what you want? Just for this coming month, we’ll build or re-build your website so that you can get the recognition you deserve. We’ll integrate you with all the social networks and optimize your site for search engines. Don’t pay someone $299 for a static site that will cost you more money than it will make. Let us build a website for you so that you can start keeping your content up to date… today!
The power of live-blogging, we can do that
We just finished an additional design for Cocoa Touch Apps today that included live-blogging software so they can cover the upcoming Apple Event with ease. They were looking for a design that would allow them to push out their updates to their readers without any need for refreshing the page. Ah, the wonders of technology. We set them up with P2, a piece of software that allows the administrators to publish directly from the homepage. We also set them up with our Facebook account integration so their commenters don’t necessarily need to login via the website, but instead can just use Facebook to get in on the action. It works like this: Every cool thing that happens during the Apple keynote will be written by the administrators and then automatically pushed to the readers on the homepage without the need to refresh. The commenters will see it immediately and have the ability to add their own thoughts to the update with the comment system. As soon as a commenter is finished with their update, it’s automatically pushed to that post’s comment section so everyone reading can see it — without refreshing the page! This is a relatively new technology that’s [...]
Is big brother really a bad thing?
In the world of websites… no. We offer many types of analytics that will help you play big brother with your website. What are analytics? Analytics are the study of data: for web development it means the study of the different statics your site produces every day. With the help of Google and other plugins, we can accurately measure who’s visiting what page when, repeat visitors, what website they used to get to your site, what terms they searched, and even where they live. Not specific addresses, it’s not that big brother-esque. If you’re a company in Denver that’s not getting any traffic from Denver locations, then we need to look at how we’re managing your keywords or your advertising. If you realize that you’re getting a lot of traffic from a specific location, then we could pursue advertising in those areas. Maybe we notice that a lot of traffic is coming from a particular site, it may be advantageous to pursue advertising on that site. The advantages to knowing your reader demographic are remarkable. We make it easy to realize this potential. Just ask.
Facebook integration, an evil worth fighting for
Any web developer would cringe when you ask them if you could integrate Facebook with their website. Twitter? Absolutely, that one is much more customizable. But Facebook? Everyone and their mother has a Facebook account. I realized the truth to that statement when my mother, my grandmother, my aunts and uncles all added me as a friend on Facebook. I long for the days when it was reserved for college students, when my parents couldn’t follow my every move, when high school students couldn’t have accounts — but for web developers, it’s actually a good thing. Since so many people already have a Facebook account, why shouldn’t we integrate Facebook logins to our websites so people can quickly and easily have access to our features like commenting? Well, that’s what we’ve been working on. Facebook development is difficult but very rewarding. The ease of use your readers have with that integration alone will make them more willing to come back. We’ve been working with other developers to improve upon the Facebook integration technologies available. We’ve tried every plugin out there and realized that there’s no easy solution, but we’ve put in the groundwork and the research to make it the [...]
We’ve finished our site design
We’ve finished the layout of our site… finally. We’ve been so busy working on other websites that we have yet to have the opportunity to finish one of our own. We’ve tried to include a lot of different features to help you get a better grasp of what we can do with our design work. Please check out the portfolio page so you can see some of the other sites we’ve done recently. Let us know if you have any questions about the technologies we use. We’d be happy to share our knowledge with anyone who asks! May your images be sharp and your code precise.
