Friday, July 4th, 2008

Here is a great article from Susan Greene on writing home page copy.

How to put Visio presentation online

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

We recently helped a local business implement a creative web solution by putting a Visio diagram presentation online.

The presentation is hosted with a 3rd party hosting company using an ip address only (this way they don’t have to buy a domain name).

The presentation is password protected and is only accessible by those with the correct permissions (username and password).

The presentation can be viewed anywhere a client or employee has internet access.

What is telecommuting? According to Wikipedia:

Telecommutinge-commutinge-workteleworkworking at home (WAH), or working from home (WFH) is a work arrangement in which employees enjoy limited flexibility in working location and hours. In other words, the daily commute to a central place of work is replaced by telecommunication links.

How does it work?
1. You find a template on the internet that you like and purchase it.
2. You provide us with all the template files.
3. We can modify the template to fit your needs, adding your logo, your text and your pictures.
We recommend buying templates from TemplateMonster.com; they are affordable and look great.
If you need help with your template, feel free to contact us today! You buy it, we modify it.
If you can’t find what you are looking for on Template Monster, we have access to some other nice templates; contact us if you are on a budget and still want a great looking website.
We provide this service to our customers because custom designed websites costs more and most people are operating on a limited budget. This is an attractive option to small companies who are just starting out but still want a presence on the web.

What is CMS?

Friday, March 28th, 2008

CMS is short for Content Management System; it is an application designed to give users the ability to manage their web site’s content.

Some websites have pages that are mainly static, and some sites have pages that need constant updating. Instead of having the site owner call me every time they need a change, it is more efficient for me to give them that ability.
However, most people don’t know HTML/CSS code and do not want to bother learning. So, using a CMS, I can give users a nice user friendly interface that will allow them to manage content without knowing a bunch of geeky programming languages. The interface is similar to a Word document; they have a big open box where they can type in the text and they also have a toolbar where they can do simple tasks such as bold, italics, underline, add hyper links, spell check, etc. They can even upload images using this system.
If you are looking for an application like this, please contact us for more information.
