Website Design
Your ability to draw them in falls on the shoulders of your website design. And modern consumers know what they want, and if you fail to deliver, they’ll move on to the next option on their SERP‘s. First, your site’s design has to be unique. After all, you can’t make a name for yourself by mirroring other websites and changing just a few details. Second, it needs to be dynamic without being too cluttered. If you overwhelm your visitors’ senses, they’ll run away before you have a chance to make a positive impression.
Every detail, from your choice of font to using free space for emphasis, could work for or against you. Our design team is here to help you create a customized website incorporating all the elements known to matter to your audience. We’ll make it user-friendly, make sure your logo and contact information are visible at every turn, and ensure you have a well-planned “about us” page, just to name a few of the critical components.
We base our website design services on the wildly popular, highly functional and extremely versatile WordPress platform. WordPress is perfect for bloggers and businesses alike. There are plenty of plug-ins and widgets to choose from. You’ll find no end to the design possibilities. Since your audience is unquestionably jumping on the mobile bandwagon, we’ll incorporate mobile-friendly responsive capabilities into your site.
Domain Name Purchase
You’ll want your domain name to reflect some crucial aspect of your company or blog. From that point, you’ll need the right extension to help further articulate what your businesses or blogging site is about. We offer the basic .com, .org, .net and .online extensions as well as the new rising favorites, like .cool and .church. You want your website to echo your business persona, and your domain name is a supplement of that end goal.
One common concern with domain names is that once they’re registered, ownership details are public record. This could leave you vulnerable to any number of spam and online threats. But, we keep you safe with our WHOIS privacy protection service. We make sure you’re completely visible without actually exposing too much.
BLOG and Website HOSTING
Our web hosting options come with full technical support. It’s a simple matter of choosing which package best meets your needs. Blogging and business websites have different sets of requirements, but we cater to both.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Written content on your website plays a role here. Well-expressed material and appropriate keywords are part of showing search engines authority. But there is a balance in there, or you run the risk of getting flagged as spammy.
It’s also important to have a strong content marketing strategy. You can do this with a blog by answering questions your intended audience is asking. A focused blogging strategy will give you content your audience craves as well as keyword strength for search engines.
There are also several off-site factors you’ll want to consider. When other credible sites link back to you, it shows search engines that you are credible. We can help build a link strategy that will boost all the great work you’re doing on your site.
This all scratches the surface of the SEO realm and the marketing it entails. We help with finding the keywords you need to rank for, building content for your website around those parameters, linking to other authoritative sites, developing advertising and marketing strategies, optimizing your social media sites and all the other inclusions bound to propel you to the top and keep you there.
Self-Publishing Services
From helping you plan out an e-book to promoting its launch, we’ll get you noticed. We have development, editing, design, formatting and marketing specialists on staff. We’ve also built flexible pricing around our self-publishing services. That way, you can choose what works for your needs and your budget.
