Optimizing your Website

Too often these days web design companies simply focus on a website's SEO, however optimization means much more than just enhancing your site for search engines. Research has shown that visitors to a website will generally wait around 4 seconds before leaving a site. This means that a fast website is critical in today's harsh business environment.

We are able to help optimize your website in a variety of ways, as you can see below.

Image Optimization

Is your website loading too slow due to your image file sizes being too large? We can help you with advice on the different file types that are available and with choosing the file types that are best for you.

We will also help reduce the images file size by running the image through an optimization process to cut down on size without sacrificing quality.

The cost of the image optimization depends on how long we work on your site, but it generally runs somewhere between $200 to $400.

Code Optimization

Optimizing your code is essential so that it loads quickly for visitors, and display correctly to maximize the number of positive impressions.

As we browse the internet we see many websites still using an image based navigation! These days, we can take such navigation and create the same effects using simple XHTML and CSS. This makes the navigation much easier to update and makes it more user friendly, as users can then resize the text to suit their needs.

Code optimization time varies widely, so again the cost is based on how long we work on your site. Please contact us with the specifics of your site!

Search Engine Optimization

Yes, the big buzzword of the Internet, SEO! With our knowledge of the way search engines work we can help bring your site to the forefront.

Hundreds of factors influence search engine ratings, which is what makes this type of job so specialized. We can increase your website's search engine visibility, which can equate to more visitors to your site, and therefore more revenue. That's why Search Engine Optimization is often a very good way to improve the return on your website investment.

Our SEO approach is very different than some companies. We don't believe you need to make constant changes (in fact we believe that can hurt you), and we don't believe you need to pay every month for months or years on end. We believe that you should do an initial round of SEO, then wait a few months and review your progress before taking additiional steps. Our first-round SEO work generally costs between $450 - $700.
