This section of our portfolio contains information about the brochure-style web sites we've made. These web sites usually contain a limited number of pages, all which display text and images, and usually have general information about a businesses' products, services and how to contact the company or organization. |

Savoury's Catering in Palm Springs - this web site is under the final stages of being completed at the time of this entry, but the template is so beautiful I wanted to add it to my portfolio.
This company does all of the catering for the Palm Springs Convention Center and the web site has a number of xml based photo galleries (that means a lot of images can be loaded into one gallery) that offer a full screen option when you're viewing them.
This company caters for some spectacular events and also does smaller events in private homes and for weddings and corporate functions. |

|
Jade Realty in Palm Springs - this web site is a brochure style web site offering information about the company and a way to search the MLS within something called an IFRAME, which means the MLS search is done within their web page. I
created a large slideshow from images purchased on Fotolia.com, a stock photography web site. All of their agents have their own bio page and there is information on short sales and other finanical programs. |
|
Ron Brewer Photography - this web site offers a unique approach to showing images. The web site, when you click on "Enter Ron Brewer Photography" at the top, displays the web site in a full screen window.
The majority of photographers and artists use pre-made image gallery flash web sites. Instead of using a complete flash web site (which is NOT readable by search engines), I found an amazing flash gallery that is inserted into HTML pages, implemented a really nifty sliding menu (due to space limitations and the desire to add many galleries into the menu) and a cool flash image player and acheived the same effect as a flash web site. If you look at any of the galleries, you'll see text on the right side. All of that text is indexable by search engines, as are the image folders. What that means for the client is that all of her web site will be found and ranked (including the images) by the search engines. And it looks good too!
I have also installed a really unique and classy looking photography blog using WordPress as its platform. This section of the web site the client has complete control over, with an administrative backend where they can add content that is also "search engine friendly". |

The David Andrew Salon in Palm Springs, California - a brochure style web site with two slideshows on the homepage purchased from IstockPhoto.com.
The site has a current, modern look but the images portray a realistic clientele.
The web site has all of the hair stylists' bios and a slideshow of a photoshoot that has the option to play in full screen.
You can read the owner's testimonial here.

Jordan's Creative Catering Concepts - this client had a functional web site that hasn't done well in the search engines. I created a new look and feel, made all of the navigation "search engine friendly", added more appropriate page titles, created an html, google and yahoo site map, and submitted them to the search engines. Later this year we'll be working on rankings, but it's already doing better in rankings with the small changes in designa and site map submissions.

The front page has two flash based slide shows that display some truly beautiful homes in the Palm Springs area. This web site is part of the Capitis Group of Luxury Home Services. |

The Events Department - a wedding planner in Palm Springs. This web site uses three different color schemes, one for each section of the site, has hundreds of pages and downloadable music. This is probably one of the largest brochure-style web sites I've created and the site grows every month, with new bands and musicians being added as well as new locations for events.
I just recently started working with this company to help them with search engine optimization and link building. I'll be working in a variety of different ways to help improve her Google rankings by ensuring all of her text site-wide is originally written and by building quality inbound links to her site. |

Auto Knight - an Automobile Club in Palm Springs. The owner had an existing web site that needed reworking so additional content could be added.
