Search Engine Optimization
Content is king. It’s important to have rich content on your special subject-matter. However, in addition to great content, you need to implement a number of specific SEO techniques to crack page one of Google or Bing search results.
We can analyze your market and discuss realistic goals for search traffic and develop a plan for reaching these goals. We build all of our websites with simple “White-Hat” SEO in mind. If you hire our team for writing services, we can also:
- Help develop keywords
- Write SEO-friendly headlines and subheadlines
- Weave your keywords into your text gracefully
- Help you generate inbound links that matter
- Inspire you with fresh article concepts based on your distinct sector expertise
Where advertisement is a continuous cost, smart SEO practices — all free — will keep paying dividends for years.

Logo and Branding
In the past three years, about one-half of our website solutions have included the design of a logo and identity. Once we have taken the time to get to know your business and researched other designs in your sector, we start brainstorming with intensity. We pour lots of coffee, come up with troves of potential imagery, take a nap or two… and then start paring things back down. We eliminate the clichés and hone in on a mark that is distinctive and original.
We often explore multiple logo types (wordmarks, lettermarks, brandmarks and emblems).
In general, we develop between four and six logo concepts and then refine your favorite until you are completely satisfied.
“A great trademark is appropriate, dynamic, distinctive, memorable and unique.”
