Wellness Coach Lori Boothroyd had a beautiful site, but there were some drawbacks. It was frustrating to make changes to individual web pages and next to impossible to make changes to the design itself.

Karen Field was ready to launch a serious business site. She wanted a place to gain newsletter subscribers, promote her products, and round up issues of her email newsletter. She asked that we use a photo her husband had taken of a butterfly, and so we incorporated it into the header of her site. We also added a photo of her to each page so that visitors would feel like they were getting to know her.

Newsletter archive website, we designed the two-column layout to offer both advertising for sale (directly from the site publisher) and to run Google ads. Site is updated weekly and makes use of several excellent plugins and decorative drop cap functionality.

Lisa Evans had purchased a WordPress theme (from another company) but she wasn’t quite happy with it and wanted some customizations.

She contacted us to make the look of the template her own. One thing she knew was that she wanted to include a photo of herself in the header, so we tried out several different photos she sent us until she decided on the one she liked best. We also created an entire custom header for her, selecting a font that captured the essence of her Yummylicious brand. Then, we changed the color scheme of the template for her, and changed the navigation to better suit her needs.

The Brand Dame is Lyn Chamberlin’s branding blog built in WordPress. She connects with readers on a regular basis delivering news related to personal and professional branding.

Lyn wanted an unique illustrated header, so we worked with the illustrator of her choice to have something she absolutely loved created. She also wanted to make good use of social networking and bookmarking along with Twitter, and Flickr, all of which found a place on her website through WordPress plugins.

Brand Dame Lyn Chamberlin needed a new identity. She was ready for a professional website, blog, and email newsletter design–and that’s exactly what we gave her.

The new skyePR.com site makes use of her brown and orange color scheme and provides a fresh, clean showcase for her branding work. Using an event calendar plugin, Lyn’s able to easily deliver an up-to-date speaking event calendar to her website visitors. The site also generates an updated, random list of posts from her blog to ensure there’s up-to-the-minute content for her website visitors.

C.J. Hayden wanted to create a hub site for all of her projects. She planned to use WordPress as her CMS as she had for other sites in the past.

She had an illustration for her front page and asked us to complete the WordPress coding and design a layout for the internal pages. She wanted something that made use of layers and had a textured appeal.
