Took the last few weeks to cook up a brand new site. It’s powered by wordpress and uses the thematic theme framework, but you knew that from the new “powered by” section didn’t you!

This is just a first look so it’s not quite polished and things like commenting, searching, etc are still being finished up!

Idaho Water Engineering needed a no-nonsense website as they launched their new business. We gave them the low-down up on hosting, domains, email and advertising so they didn’t get suckered into the common small business money sinks. We developed a simple, but robust WordPress powered site that put their wide array of services front and center.

Sky of Love

A small charity with big ambitions. Sky of Love came to us frustrated with their current website’s limitations and confusing CMS. We hooked them up with the good stuff. A clean WordPress installation with all the extras. We took youtube and flickr plugins and integrated them seamlessly into the site to showcase the beautiful images and videos of their work on the ground. We didn’t just set them up with their facebook fan page and call it a day, we went the extra mile and took care of all legwork to get them listed on Guidestar so they’d be able to take full advantage of the powerful causes application.

Recently we launched an ecommerce section on the site (powered by WP e-Commerce) to help fundraising efforts selling t-shirts and other goods.

We worked closely with the team at Thomas Hooker and embarked on a complete overhaul of the website. We rebuilt the site from the ground up using clean html/css coding and delivered a clear and intuitive interface that’s easy to navigate even after a few pints. But we didn’t stop there…

We worked with the brewery to establish a presence on all the major social networks, schooling them on fan building and brand monitoring. We also took it old school and set them up with a powerhouse open source newsletter management system and helped them build an audience of over 4k subscribers.

Most recently we completed a migration from osCommerce to Magento for the shopping cart platform. The new Magento powered store offers a simplified one-page checkout, deep SEO enhancements, google base integration and a much more robust and user friendly admin area.

Currently we are busy working on a mobile optimized version of the site along with another overhaul to the desktop version. The new desktop version will include a streamlined look as well as move to HTML5/CSS3 standards and include numerous speed optimizations.
