Mike knew exactly what he wanted and Rick created an easily accessible, scrolling menu. We were unable to get a high resolution copy of the menu, so Rick keyed in the entire menu himself in order to make the new website graphics! The result is a simple, no-frills site that provides all the information customers need to find the restaurant and order ahead.

As part of our full service, we also listed the restaurant in Google maps, and updated the Yelp listing. We created a Facebook page, as well. Palmerworks offers personalized service for clients who aren’t familiar with website search engine optimization (SEO) and online directory listings. We are always glad to do a little extra for each customer.

Visit the new website and drop in to Mike’s Corned Beef House for lunch. Be sure to order his home made soup and/or a tender, juicy corned beef sandwich. Check out the menu at http://cornedbeefrestaurant.com.

Palmerworks provides affordable, professional web design and specializes in personalized service.

Maria already owned a gorgeous site called bodybeautifulllc.com. The site was created in Flash, using custom-designed graphics that complement the colors and style of the decor in her beautiful new business location.

However, Maria also owns an older site named ultimatehairremoval.com — a simple home-made template site. She wanted to retain the old site, because it has a great, catchy name, with good search relevance, and it brings in lots of hits. Howevever, the site definitely lacked the professional allure of the Body Beautiful site.

After pondering the options, we decided to replace the “simple” site with a mirror image of  the beautiful Flash site, using  html instead of Flash. Rick honed his css design skills and recreated the entire Flash site graphic by graphic. The results are amazing. The new site retains the elegant look without using Flash, and also has a few improvements. We added a blog, a photo page, simpler navigation, an easy-to-access contact form, and we added the location’s address to every page. Take a look at the new ultimatehairremoval.com site.

As an added bonus, Maria received one year of hosting with her redesign. After canceling her old provider, Maria ended up paying the same price for the entire redesign plus hosting as she was already paying for hosting alone! We took care of the transfer for her, so it was a stress free “move.”

If you already own a site that needs updating, or have other unique web or print design needs, call us at 734-252-WEB1, or email info@palmerworks.com. We offer personalized service and will take care of all your design needs.

The site we developed was our standard five-page package, which includes domain name and hosting for one year, plus a blog and contact form. We customize sites to our clients’ needs, and this site also includes examples of actual fire ground reviews in pdf format. We’d like to thank Mark for choosing us to develop his corporate identity: website, logo, and business cards. We had a great time working with him! Now we just have to teach him the art of blogging.

Purchase a complete web package for your company, including domain name, hosting, and blog, for under $400. Contact Rick or Katherine at Palmerworks Design, today. We offer professional design with personalized service.

The site creation process started out well when we were able to get everlastasphalt.com for their domain name. Finding the perfect name is a bit tricky nowadays, since so many good names have already been purchased by other companies.

Rick mapped out a site that has a clean, friendly design, highlighting the professionalism and workmanship that Randy Bearden’s company has provided for more than 20 years.

We always learn a lot about each client’s trade when we create a site. Rick researched and wrote quite a bit about the asphalt industry. When Randy told him that asphalt is recyclable, he incorporated a name plate that featured the green we all associate with environmentally friendly products and services.

Ambiquity Design’s goal is to provide highly personalized service for each of our clients. We tailor-made this site to include before and after pictures, all of their services, and a contact form for potential clients. Being MDOT certified and successfully staying in business for more than 20 years are both credentials that can reassure a potential client, so we added that information to the footer on every page. We also incorporated keywords that will attract visitors searching for an asphalt company throughout the site and in the html code, another important aspect of attracting potential clients.

We know most clients are excited to see how many hits their new sites receive, so we install Google Analytics on every site we build.

Thanks to Michele and Randy for choosing Ambiquity for their brand new company website.

We just completed a one-page “business card” site for a new client:

Trotter Strategies, a Washington, D.C.-based firm headed by veteran lobbyist Tom Trotter, provides Congressional consulting, strategic advice, and issue advocacy. Whether it’s promoting a particular issue or trying to stop harmful legislation, Trotter’s years of experience and established relationships will help you navigate the process and achieve your legislative goals.

Our business card site package include hosting for one year. We offer customized extras that you can add to your site. In this case, we’ve linked to Trotter’s resume. We also designed his company logo and business cards.

The site, hosted by Palmerworks Design, is an ad for a four-day Karaoke fundraiser, “Sing Because You Care,” which raised $2655.25 for the local Wayne-Westland Corps of The Salvation Army. The event was organized and hosted by employees of Delta Air Lines and Wayne County Airport Authority.

The original art for the banner was provided by Gordie Roedeing.
