Web Design
All of our work conforms to current web standards and is compatible across various browsers and platforms. This helps to ensure future-proofing, which will enable your site to easily adapt to new technologies as they emerge. Coding is done strictly by hand, which ensures that each and every page is fully-optimized making them quick-to-load and search engine friendly.
We separate content from design by using semantic XHTML for structured markup and CSS for presentation as opposed to using traditional table-based layouts. This technique brings a host of benefits such as significantly reducing the amount of code that is needed, giving webpages a more consistent look and feel, achieving higher search engine rankings, and makes them more accessible to visitors using text browsers, mobile phones, PDAs, or screen readers.
Web Development
We believe in the value of open-source technologies and use PHP and Ruby on Rails with MySQL for all of our web development projects. We build web applications, content management systems, and database-driven websites. These solutions enable our clients to manage the content of their site with ease directly through a web browser from any computer that has access to the internet.
