Web Design Services…Plus!

Being a wiz at coding and design, all X/HTML and CSS sites are hand coded and designed completely from scratch using X/HTML and CSS web standards, with no cookie-cutter, blah templates, and no tables for layout. Got graphics? You bet I do! I create unique graphics to set your business apart!

WordPress site themes are customized by manipulating the XHTML and CSS coding, adding custom graphics that are distinctive and memorable for your site, creating custom page layouts, researching and adding the perfect plugins, adding custom php code when needed, and much more.

Need a site makeover? Whether X/HTML/CSS or WordPress based, let me dive in and give you an exciting and refreshing new look! I will also make sure your site is fully functional in every aspect including, updating out-dated code and broken links.

To bang these sites out, I use the Adobe CS5 suite of software programs. The most popular programs in this arsenal are: Photoshop, Illustrator, DreamWeaver, Adobe Acrobat Pro, Flash, and InDesign. All design tools are used interchangeably to create custom graphic design and coding elements for your website, newsletters, pdf documents, eBooks, etc. This is only the tip of the iceberg as far as software programs go; I am proficient in many!

Below is a list of some of the extra amenities I offer that go hand-in-hand with web design and development as an added Plus! for my clients. (Please note that this is not an all-inclusive list. If you don’t see something that you need, don’t be shy, please ask.)

• Custom newsletter designs and integration with your autoresponder.
• Autoresponder setup.
• Blog setup and customization (I highly recommend WordPress.org vs WordPress.com for businesses).
• Blog postings and scheduling.
• Discussion Forums setup and customization (I recommend phpBB forums), that can also have the same design as your “regular” website.
• Custom graphic design—from simple to complex.
• Site makeovers or “tweaking” to give you a spiffy new look; minor changes also welcome.
• Banner ads.
• Squeeze or sales pages.
• Functional and jazzy pdf document creation for anything under the sun—including forms that customers/clients can fill out, and even forms that calculate!
• Video and audio presentations; anything from A to Z to get your message out to your site visitors (I use Camtasia Studio).
• PowerPoint presentations that can be converted and include audio (I use Camtasia) and inserted on your website.
• eBook(s) design covers and content (provided by you) in full color and downloadable and/or printable.
• Copywriting (content writing).
• Copy editing (does your content make sense, etc.?).
• Proofreading for misspelling of words or incorrect word use (e.g. affect vs effect), number transpositions, grammar, proper use of contractions, etc.—you would be surprised how many errors a “second set of eyes” can uncover!
• Research: including researching your competition, peer and non-peer reviewed documented studies, etc.—you ask, I’ll hunt it down!
• Formatting and creation of contracts from your content to digital format personalized with your logo, etc.
• Personal signatures: custom creation of your personal signature by scanning and editing your provided signature. Your choice of any color or black to use on documents that require a signature, including Adobe digital.
