Atlas Auto Service

admin — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 21:36:16 +0000

My company, CDADEV, LLC recently had the privilege of doing a design for Atlas Auto Service. Atlas Auto Service on Appleway in Coeur d’Alene has been my auto mechanic for the last 6-7 years. They are awesome to work with and they really know diesel’s, which is important since I have a 2002 Dodge Cummins diesel pickup. I recommend them all the time. Anyways, here is the design we did for them: http://atlasautoservice.com. Please let me know what you think! Also, you may want to take advantage of their 20% off coupon!

Bold Color or Minimalist?

admin — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 18:34:18 +0000

My associates and I are about to launch to coolest car site in the world. I recently had an idea for a more simple website design. And though I only have the time to show you the home page, I would like to know what people think. Do you prefer the original bold images, full color site? Or do you prefer the more minimalist approach? The new, more minimalist concept is not even close to looking like craigslist, but I think its less distracting, more obvious what is going on.

Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

admin — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 15:48:11 +0000

Just thought I would show everyone the latest website that I designed. Spokane Sprinkler, a website for Spokane Sprinkler Repair Service. This site has a feature that I had never implemented on a site before. If you take a look, you will notice that the background expands and contracts as you drag your browser window [...]

The Best Kind of Websites

admin — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 22:43:05 +0000

What makes a good website? I’m finding that more and more people do not understand the basics of a good website. Most people I talk to think that its all about show, lots of moving things and flash-iness. I get asked a lot,

“Do you do flash?”

I always reply,

“No.”

First reason not to do flash websites is they are not search engine friendly. Adobe and Google are working on making Flash search engine friendly, but it will probably be a while and probably will never have the potential like a good standard css/html site.

As an internet marketer, and not just a “web designer”, I often have to rely on my websites and projects to sell in order to bring income. In other words with many of the websites I build, if the product or service is not selling, I dont make anything. In fact, in internet marketing I often loose money if the website is not doing a good job at selling. This has made me one of the best and most practical website designers that anyone could hire. In all humbleness.

Some things to think about when building a website:

Is my website distracting?
Are people finding what they are looking for immediately? (product/service information, phone numbers, a way to buy)
Is there anything preventing a potential customer from making a purchase?

Those are just a few things to think about. The best kind of site you can build is simple. Make it attractive to the eye, but not distracting. Make sure that its easy for people to use, and to get the information they came there for.

Flash type sites may look cool sometimes, but like many flash ads and banners that people see on a day to day basis, people grow blind to it. Often times Flash sites are too distracting for people to use, and so they leave.

Kevin Kimpton Website

admin — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 21:25:42 +0000

Im just wrapping up a simple but professional website for my accountant. Here is his site: Kevin Kimpton. Its a clean website, built from scratch. Kevin wanted a somewhat “outdoorsy” feel and so did my best to convey that but also make it look like a professional accountant website. I hope you all like it.

By the way, Kevin and his staff are very good at what they do. If you are looking for a certified public accountant than I highly recommend you choose the office of Kevin Kimpton. If you are looking for a custom website for your company, please let us know!

Dont waste anymore time

Seems that every business owner I talk to wants to start selling their products online. Depending on the business, product and the plan, this may or may not be a good idea. An online store takes a lot of commitment, planning and sometimes several years before it is really successful. However, with almost everyone using the internet to find local business’s, your company cannot afford to be without at least a simple website. The first thing any business owner should do is buy his own company’s domain name and at the very least put the company’s contact information on the site. Then, hire a website professional to at least submit your website to Google, Yahoo and other search engines so that you can be found.

If you have competition that already is on the web, you would do well to have an equal if not more professional and easy to use website than they do. A simple, clean, search engine friendly site is vital to any business. Remember, people are searching. Are they finding you? If not, please send us an email to see what we can do for you
