This website came to debwork.com already designed but it had not made it to publication. I was asked to ‘make it happen’. Once the site was live we went forward with adding a PayPal shopping cart for orders.
Underneath the hood this site uses a default WordPress theme. The styles that were agreed upon were applied/improved.
I am also a Facebook and G+ administrator for MooBuzz® leather paste.
Responsive? Yes

This is an html website for a jeweler in the Boston area which had not been updated in some time. The site is very much image based so we added titles and tags to the images to catch search engine attention. The images now start a slideshow instead of opening individually which gives more opportunity for SEO.
Daniel Spirer’s jewelry blog is featured on boston.com.

Here is a great example of WordPress as a CMS. Lysianne Unruh was a seasoned blogger before we teamed up. She uses debwork.com for structural help but she writes and modifies content as needed for her coaching business. I get to coach her on keeping the site fit and SEO concerns – we are in this together
Responsive? Absolutely! (Genesis Agency Pro theme)

This vet needed help with her WIX site which is made in Flash. The site was updated for a more consistent look between pages, more pictures added.
Flash website building tools provide a lot of ‘bling’ but are not so
great for SEO and do not work well, if at all, on handheld devices. This site was moved to WordPress when the WIX contract expired.

This is a WordPress website for a jeweler in Connecticut who has lines of ginkgo and hibiscus jewelry. The custom design jewelry portfolio was going so well that the site owner decided to put the Woo eCommerce aspect on hold. Raimie began in the business with her dear father. In addition to her creations, she also repairs and appraises jewelry.
Responsive? Yes, indeed! Theme base is Propulsion by Kriesi.

MMAC already had an established website but it was not looking and functioning the way she wanted it to. They were adept at updates using Dreamweaver but the site needed a facelift for look and function.
Now the site incorporates Flickr slideshows, social media links, plus keeps everyone up to date on the latest class schedule. Sign up for their newsletter! They teach outside the US and these travels produce great stories

This html site presents the many (very many!) services that Jacob Mills provides to professional meetings and community gatherings (emcee, host, juggling, puppetry and other performance). He also teaches all of those skills plus can be hired for on screen talent and voice over work. For a treat, listen to his voice over samples.
