I loved it that Ken Evans Mediation wanted to have something symbolic of the Pacific Northwest to associate his work with, and what is more perfect than a pod of Orca whales set against the backdrop of the San Juan Islands?

Of course we did it in WordPress with a custom design. We also set up an online appointment calendar so his clients can log-in and make appointments for mediation services. The Calendar will save a lot of “phone-tag” time for Ken and his clients.

About 6 years ago I created a site for Pohlman Knowles Studio – and it was great! But as time and the internet advanced on, the site was starting to show it’s age. So last month Pam and I overhauled everything and re-created the site using WordPress. And now it’s even greater! How amazing is that?

The best part is, Sabrina Knowles and Jenny Pohlman can go into their site whenever they wish and add new show dates, blog about their latest work & events, and most importantly, update the Sculpture Galleries as they create new pieces. Another cool feature is that visitors can sign up to receive notification of their latest blog posts, so they can keep informed when a show is upcoming or there is something of interest that Pohlman Knowles Studio deem worthy of sharing.

Giving people the tools to update their web sites empowers them and makes for better web sites  – sites that are current, fresh and visited often.

OK, I know the site layout is good-looking, but honestly, what makes this site shine is the incredibly gorgeous work that Sabrina & Jenny create. I got lucky in getting to showcase it.

Please take a few moments to visit the site – prepare to be dazzled!

Sara Wells, FNP, came to us needing a site for her practice, Cascadia Family Health. She wanted it professional, friendly and easy to navigate, which of course is what we do best!

Sara provided the beautiful background image of the bay, I creaated the overall design and Pam set it up in WordPress. Sara can now go in and update the site whenever she needs to, she has a News Blog for posting current events and articles of interest for her clients as well.

We were all happy with the outcome and believe this site will serve Sara and her clients well for many years to come!

Northwest Devices is a company in Tecate, Mexico that produces parts for the aerospace industry.

Their old site wasn’t serving them very well, they wanted a site that was “clean and high-tech looking” and they also wanted it to be up asap – in time for an important meeting with a new client! We turned this around in just a few days.

It’s a very basic site the uses WordPress for it’s platform. We created a simple layout with a custom header design, and kept the look clean and cool.

A looooooong time ago I helped the iDiOM theater in Bellingham, WA with their web site. Since then, the founder of the iD has moved on to NYC and is involved with a theater production company there, Northwest Passage Theater Collective.

I was happy to help Glenn put together a quick site to advertise their 2 new productions. Special features are a photo gallery and a page for videos.

If in NYC, look them up – Northwest Passage Theater Collective has been getting rave reviews for their performances!

The Bath Tub Diva is, perhaps, the most incredible site on the internet! Uh-huh.

Pam, Karen & I decided to work together to create this site. I’ve been an avid bath-tubber for ages and wanted to spread the word on how great – and transformative – taking a bath can be, so, WA-LA! The Bath Tub Diva was launched.

I created the design, Pam did the programming (in WordPress – what else?) and Karen provides SEO support.

Visit the site to learn how you can  “Transform your life one bath at a time”. There are articles on fabulous bath recipes, info on Epsom salts, funny (and true!) stories about bathing, splendid bath-related products that we like & recommend, mindful meditations & affirmations, and stunning “Spa Day” ideas for you and your friends.

For sure you’ll find something that you like on the site and will come back again and again for more stunning info on the joys of tubbin’ it!

Jess Van Dusen, N.D., recently set up her practice in Bellingham and wanted a web site that reflected her lifestyle and the kind of Naturopathic Doctor she is. I used a lot of photographs that she had taken on her hikes around the area for the individual page headers. Sepia tones were used as full color images were distracting and we wanted viewers to feel soothed and engaged when they came to the site. Dandelion graphics line the bottom of the pages ’cause they are cool AND are a reminder of the herbal source of much of natural medicine.

Pam set up the site in WordPress and Jess can easily update it herself.

It’s a lovey, clean and easy to navigate site that will serve Dr. Dusen well!

We upgraded Ann Vetter-Hansen’s simple one page site into a marvelous WordPress site that Ann can now upgrade and blog on herself.

I love the colors and simplicity of this site design and it really suits Ann’s sensibilities, giving her prospective clients a feeling about the type of lawyer that she is.

About 4 years ago I did a simple one page site for Buckland & Schumm and it served them well for a few years. Two months ago they decided they wanted the whole enchilada for their site. I was more than happy to redo it! We used the same cool building graphic (’cause it looks like their building – clever ‘eh?) but this time we put the whole site in WordPress, so the graphics reflect a more “modern” layout and there is a groovy sidebar for Recent Posts and their Contact Info. Pam did all the programming and got the videos on the front page.

Buckland & Schumm also hired an SEO (Search Engine Optimization) expert to get their rankings showing up higher in the searches. While my company provides basic SEO for our clients, we recommend hiring a professional SEO company if your business is in a competitive field and you want to increase your chances of coming up on the first page of Google.

Call me if you’d like a recommendation for professional SEO help!
