Getting Acquainted

• Set a time to talk on the phone or meet in person if its convenient for both parties.
• We will ask you to provide an assortment of website you like/dislike and what you specifically like/dislike about them. This is to just get an idea of your tastes and expectations.

We tend to ask the questions that need to be asked, and think of the details that nobody else does. We anticipate needs, find solutions to difficult problems, and bring order to complex situations.  

We can upgrade, repair or redesign anything on your site.

• Custom websites - we build your custom site using open source software.  Host on any server, you own it!  We are available on an as-needed basis for ongoing support.  
• Website redesigns
• Website migrations
• Open Source CMS Websites (PHP based)
  • Wordpress Websites
  • Drupal Websites
  • Joomla!® Websites
  • Magento Websites
• eCommerce / E-Commerce Websites
• Data Integrations & Automation (Zapier, etc)
• Newsletter, Email, Subscribers / Distribution Systems
• Logo, identity, branding materials

We take a realistic approach to Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing.  This is a topic that is frequently overrated and oversold, so be careful. We have been approached by SEO firms (yes, offering to sell their services to another web design firm) as well as worked with SEO firms who claim to be "optimizing" your site on a monthly, ongoing basis - but in fact, they aren't doing a thing. 

Some truths about SEO:

• If nobody is searching for your keywords, investing in SEO will not be able to gain you any extra clicks
• Quality clicks will almost always deliver a better ROI than quantity clicks.  just because people can get you "more clicks" does not mean that it will be helpful.
• Placement cannot be guaranteed.  Google's results are ordered based on their own (secret) algorithm.  SEO professionals take "educated guesses" at how the algorithm works, but Google keeps it a secret and is constantly changing it.

We work with all of our clients to develop the most effective compensation structure for both client and agency.  We can offer contract relationships, retainer relationships, and project relationships.  Out-of-pocket expenses (travel, courier, supplies, etc.) are billed to clients at cost.

"Excellent job, Nate! Thank you so much for your work on the Web site -- you knew exactly what we needed and helped to guide us through the process seamlessly. The site exceeded our expectations and we couldn't be happier."
