Design and web development services

When you hire us to create your website, you're getting much more than just another designer. We provide design skills honed by many years of both print and web work, technical and copy writing, illustration, programming, and system administration.

Appropriate design

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. We believe the best design for your website might not always be the one that looks the best to you or us. Your audience — your customers — are the proper judges.

So when we create your website in cooperation with you, we'll try to identify the expectations of your visitors so we can communicate on their terms.

Appropriate technologies

And in the same vein, the technologies are best judged solely in the context of what your visitors need and expect and appreciate. Should your website be made with Flash? Only if your visitors will benefit. Should we incorporate video or music? Only to the extent it actually helps you achieve your business goals.

Websites that get used

We also believe in creating highly usable, attractive, approachable websites. While it's certainly fun to surf websites with wild animations, clever graphic amusements, and whiz-bang special effects, it's our belief that these tricks rarely promote the basic functions of business. That's why we focus on good writing, clean graphics, appropriate technologies, and of course download speed. It's our experience that these core values will satisfy your visitors and make your site successful.
