Clean, Elegant, Custom Web Designs and Web Applications
No organization or business is too small for a fully custom (not from templates) website. What you need will probably fall into one of these two site categories:
Site Categories:
- Business-card site:
- This is your CSS/XHTML-based one-page custom "homepage" where folks can find out your hours, your phone number, address and maybe "this month's special".
- Data-base driven
- Enables using a CMS (content management system) to maintain your own page content from any PC or Mac, anytime, anywhere.
- For on-line sales, we use the proven osCommerce system to make your customers’ buying experience a quick, secure and dynamic one.
Standards-based Design
Using up-to-date W3C CSS design standards compatible with 99% of the browsers out there, I separate structure from content.
What does that mean to you?
My clean, standards-based designs:
- are fully custom, unique, designed for you,
- go up quickly to save your budget (that's important, yes?),
- are search engine-friendly to get higher Google ratings, and...
- will be easier and less expensive to maintain as your web presence grows.
I don't do Flash, FrontPage, huge graphics, rampant JavaScript, complex tabular structure or other 1990's-style techniques that result in slow-loading, bandwidth-hogging, search-engine-stalling, hard-to-maintain monstrosities.
My goal is elegance through simplicity.

"Our e-com site was left unfinished by our previous Web designer. WGD quickly learned it's structure, enabled our secure store, raised our search engine ranking with a home page face-lift, and documented the whole process for our future reference."

Dynamic Visitor Experience
Standard XHTML, JavaScript and CSS have more than enough tools to provide mouseover effects, dynamic menus, form controls and other interactive feedback to make your site interesting. Check out my alternative to (ugh!) scrolling marquees at www.GPAR.net, and the cascading menus at ApplegateValley.org, for instance.
