The most recent project that was completed this week was actually some web development for myself.  I wanted a website that highlights everything that I am doing with my businesses as well as my books, public speaking and so on.  Particularly, I wanted to create a site that connects all of my other sites together, all in one tidy place.  The results is yet another WordPress blog that I made a custom theme for and I am quite happy with the results.  (more…)

Another recent project that was just wrapped up is the new CustomerServiceAtoZ.com website/blog.  This site was developed for Larry Williams’ latest writing project ‘Customer Service A to Z’ which will be released later this year.  This is our sixth major full design project working with Larry and as always, it was a pleasure to serve him.  Planned additions coming to the site in the near future include the ability to buy copies of the new book when they become available as well as a forthcoming Flash animation to be included on the home page.  (more…)

Changing gears a bit, this recent project is for a local church in Columbia, PA – my home town.  The biggest challenge with this site was that there was precious little to start with.  There are no official church logos, letterheads, etc. and there were few ideas presented, some text and a few pictures.  Everything was going to need to be created from scratch!

Since this was my first church web design project, I took a long look around the web at a great many church websites, both locally and regionally, to get a feel for some design ideas.  I seen some great sites for churches and more than a few that I felt could have been executed better, but there was nothing that particularly caught my attention.  I had absolutely no idea of where to even begin or where to go with this web development project at first; I was stuck and worst of all I knew it!

Another great project that has been wrapped up recently includes the new LarryWilliams.biz website.  This is the fifth full design project that Larry has contracted us to do and as in the past, working with him has been a very rewarding experience.  I always look forward to working with Larry because he comes up with some rather unique and out-of-the-box creative ideas to incorporate into his websites.  This particular project was originally based on another design that a mutual friend had implemented with his site.  But while the concept is basically the same, the end results are that he now has a visually unique site that sets it apart from the competition.  (more…)

Recently I finished up a lengthy design project for Mitch Taylor, owner of Taylored Weddings in Michigan.  One of the great thing about this web design project was working with Mitch over the course of several months to develop a visually pleasing concept that is both user friendly as well as highly effective at converting site traffic into sales.  After many hours of consultations and several abortive concepts, we finally landed in that sweet spot where creativity and inspiration come together with amazing results.  Mitch found a WordPress template that he liked and it was up to me to hack it to his specifications.  (more…)
