Online Stores (E-Commerce)
This service enables a company to sell products and services entirely online. Having chosen a product they wish to purchase, a customer can then order and pay for it securely, using an automated payment form through PayPal.
Our client's online stores are fully customized to showcase their unique products and meet their needs. All of our clients with on-line stores have the ability to accept credit cards or PayPal information securely and safely. Checkout payment pages are secured by 128-bit SSL encryption. You’ll know when you’re one of our secure pages, because you will see the little lock icon at the bottom of your browser.
Detailed Website Statistics
We want you to know how well your website is working for you. Part of this is giving you extremely detailed monthly statistics about the traffic to your site. We do not just give you the amount of "hits" your website receives; we take it a step further with our stats.
Photo Galleries
One of our specialties is providing user-friendly ways for users to navigate photos. We have developed several different options, including timed slideshows, click-to-enlarge, combo slideshows, and many others. We are able to customize and combine these options to suit your needs.
Videos
Interactive content can really help focus your audience. Videos are the simplest form of interactive content and serve to display a message that goes beyond text and pictures. We can embed video using flash or other techniques to spice up your website.
Secure Login / Members Area
A members only/login area is a secure web page that can only be accessed by entering a username and password.
This tool ideally is used to access private, personal account information, payment information, and administration areas. This is a great tool to create areas of your website that you want only certain people to view.
Printable Coupons
Exclusive specials and coupons can make a huge difference and turn visitors to your site into customers. With printable web coupons, you will be able to promote specials or discounts on any page of your site. A potential customer can print a coupon with a simple click of a button. This is an excellent way to increase traffic and overall sales.
Interactive Google Maps
Why settle for a static, cartoonish-looking map for your website? We have integrated Google’s advanced mapping technologies into all of our client’s websites. Google offers 3 viewing options: map, satellite, or hybrid.
This tool gives you the ability to view any area of the world! Google maps also offer versatile dynamic directions and in some cases provides photos of the surrounding area.
E-mail Accounts
As a part of your package, we offer e-mail addresses based on your domain name. These look professional and are easy for potential customers to remember. We will give you the ability to check your e-mail on your website from any location, or we can configure any third-party e-mail client, such as Outlook, Mac Mail, and even your cell phone.
Photography
No time to take photos for your site? We can do it for you. We will take photos of your location and integrate them into your website. Quality photography can really make your website stand out among the thousands of others. Don’t let yours get lost in the crowd!
Blogs & Content Management Systems
A blog is a place where you write regular entries or articles on a particular subject. These articles are displayed on the blog in reverse chronological order. All of this is set up and maintained by us - all you have to do is provide and post the content.
A Content Management System is a special type of website that performs all of the same functions any other site and can be dynamically updated by any authorized user - no knowledge of coding required! These types of sites are particularly useful in situations where your website will be updated very frequently or may have a section for news and updates or any similar content.
Weather Script
This is a tool on your website that allows customers to view current weather conditions. We have the ability to set the weather to any zip code. Visitors to your website also have the ability to enter a different zip code to view the weather conditions at any particular location.
This tool gives you the ability to view any area of the world! Google maps also offer versatile dynamic directions and in some cases provide photos of the surrounding area.
Secure Payment Forms
You may want a secure payment form to be added to your site, enabling you to collect payments from your clients. We can do this by working with third party gateway companies or by going through PayPal.
