Just launched a very nice and informative web site today for a local (manatee/sarasota) arts council. The design elements are based upon our local artist Herbie Rose. The site was a re-design project that needed a whole new look and feel to better convey the Art Council of Manatee County's vision.
Another enjoyable web site to create - great people to work with! Gathering and collaberating ideas for their new look was easy and straight forward. I feel this design will be very benificial for their web audience.
Have a look!

Finished Web Design!
I finally finished a long - but completely joyous web design. This is a lovely site for a very nice and intelligent man! The web site is a weight loss hypnosis program primarily marketed to women with rich images, CSS and eccomerce. I am very happy with the results!
This web design was wonderful to do because my client did his homework! He new exactly what he wanted to portray, his target market - women - and had all the materials needed for me to work with. We had excellent communication skills the entire time! I can not emphasis enough how important planning, communication and being prepared is when designing your web marketing presence.
I built the site to be search engine optimization ready... now, I am BUSY doing the ongoing & continual SEO project!!
Check out then new web design!

Web Design Ethics
I have had the pleasure of designing websites for some awesome clients. I feel a bond with every client I design a website for.. or should I say with? You see, as they say, it takes two to tango. Great ideas and communication go along way. When I design a website I think of the whole picture and the broad spectrum. I want to really get inside your head and capture your vision of what you want to portray. From the very beginning, I have the after effects of the web design in mind... I truly want it to be as visible as possible to the intended audience. I want the website to succeed! A beautiful and functional design that adheres to web standards is only the beginning. The next mission is to make sure that the search engine optimization is excellent. Then the search engine marketing comes into play. I want your web visitors to love your website, linger and like being there. That involves giving the web guest a reason to want to stay, and a reason to come back! Ultimately, our goal is to create a reaction.

Search Engine Optimization
I am working on 2 new SEO clients, both Sarasota FL REALTORS. It is an interesting challenge as they both have the same target market, and both have very similar, almost the same web designs, that were designed by a rather shady web design firm here in Sarasota. It upsets me when web design firms sell a website to a client as a "custom website," then turn around and sell it out as a template. Bad web design business ethics and very unfair to clients.
This makes my search engine optimization job more difficult, but an interesting challenge. I am in the process of re-designing both websites to eliminate duplicate content, which destroys SEO efforts. Adding a real estate blog to one for fresh content, and going through word by word and optimizing. The websites also had a bunch of un-needed tables..yuck..tables, so I converted to CSS coding, which will also boost my SEO.
Keep it clean
Keep it fresh
Keep it relevant
3 SEO rules!

Women
When I design websites for women clients, or clients that market with "women" as their focus audience, I like to include design elements that are statistically more pleasing to women. Brighter and more complex colors, softer lines and edges, and images that are attractive and bold. Women also like to have their web content text more casual and directed to them, not "at them." Women tend to favor clean spaces that are easy to look at... less clutter.
Just using these few simple factors will produce a website that will be more effective in your web marketing campaign for women.

Seo
I have been fortunate enough to get two new accounts for web design and SEO for women retailing children's clothing! Both web sites will be ecommerce with coldfusion programming.
Just finished doing the search engine optimization for a medical supply company.
Finishing up the web design and SEO for an excelent weight loss and healthy lifestyle hypnosis program. The web design worked beautifully.
Tips and points for those needing a website to assist the webdesigner:
Do your research - look at websites that you really like, decide on web design elements that are important to you.
Understand your target market and write web content that is compelling, factual and keyword rich.
Have your images/photos ready and in a high resolution for the designer.
Make sure you submit all your web elements in a timely fashion.
COMMUNICATE! :)
Being prepared ensures a great web design that will optimize for the search engines!
