my new product – brilliantly blending interaction & showcase
the emotion
…stay involved, stay in touch: an outdated website is almost as bad as not having a website at all. not to say that you have to make 12 updates every day but you certainly want to let people know your alive and well. depending on your business and your client expectations, the amount of updates could range from once a month, once a week and the more adventurous post once a day! we’ll figure out what works best for you.
…we’re all just a curious bunch: people want to see inside your world… so show them! we’ll work together to figure out the best way for you to actually talk ‘with’ your clients not just talk ‘at’ them. we’ll figure out what they want to hear/see and what you have to say/show.
the specs
…your site and your blog in one: custom designed/programmed blog built in to the homepage with 4 to 8 supporting pages to complete the thought.
…create the perfect portfolio and blog the rest: in most cases there is a lot to show in a portfolio, usually too much. what we’ll do is work through it all and define the ‘best of the best’ to assemble the perfect portfolio. we’ll present these in the perfect order, perfect placement and with perfect amount. the rest will be showcased in the blog.
…when value exceeds the cost: one of the great benefits of this product is sheer value. we spend the time (and budget) focused on creating the design & strategy for the perfect blogplusweb site. the development time is limited as once it’s set-up, you use the blog to make your posts and the content management system to make site updates.
the technology
…content management is in your hands: defined as software, a collection of tools that allows the creation, modification, organization and removal of information from a web site. in this case, the CMS requires no knowledge of HTML in order to create web pages but learning some basics allows you to create enhanced layouts. don’t worry, i’ll show you a few tricks!
…automatically built for search engine optimization: there’s a lot of technical jargon that goes into this one but basically, as far as search engines are concerned, blogs are intended to be updated. therefore, they comeback often to see what’s been added and add it to their search results. take a look for yourself, do a search and see how often the results take you to a blog.
…be part of the web 2.0: as defined by wikipedia, web 2.0 is a term describing the trend in the use of web technology and web design that aims to enhance creativity, information sharing, and, most notably, collaboration among users. this is vital for your involvement in the future of the web. read more…
the costs
blogplusweb sites tend to cost about 25-35% less than their custom designed counterparts, about $2250 to $3750 depending on size and complexity.
