Welcome to our portfolio. We do inexpensive small business web design and our clients love us. When we create a web site for our clients, we follow a special process to make effective web sites that make our clients money and drive real world traffic through their front door!
First, we start by generating a keyword list of 500 - 1000 keywords. These keywords aren't just a bunch of words we think people are using to find our clients online. We access Google's database and find what people are actually searching for online.
Then we take those keywords and filter out the top 100 words and phrases based on demand and profitability and those words are the basis for what pages we decide to create. So really, the keywords, or our potential visitors decide the layout of the site and what information is going to be on the pages.
Our inexpensive small business web design focuses on great content, so the pages are professionally copywritten. The keywords we generate are used "just so," and and the copy is fun to read and lively.
We create a 20-page, keyword-focused, content-based web site. The search engines love content and the more content you have online, the more the search engines love you and the human visitors think you are an expert in your industry. We create a win-win-win with great content online.
We post the site map to the major search engines and do so every time we make changes. This is very important when doing inexpensive small business web design so that the engines know you exist and they come and catalog your site.
When you have Ideabox Marketing & Design create your inexpensive small business web design, you are getting a turn-key web site that the search engines love.
Here are a few of the sites we have created and the stories behind them. If you have any questions, you can contact us in Southern California in the Inland Empire at (951) 212-4080.
This site was created for a local aesthetics clinic. They offer treatments like liposuction, face peels, laser hair removal, skin rejuvination treatments and products.
They already had a beautiful flash animated site. You can see it at:
The only problem with a Flash animated site is the search engines can not see the content of the site. It is a movie and the search engines see the movie title, not the content. We explained this to them and they decided to use our web design skills to create a "net" to cast out and capture everyone searching for their services on line and direct their current clients to the other site.
This site was created for a member of YTB Travel, an MLM company. They use the same engine that Travelocity uses, so it is actually a pretty high powered travel booking engine.
Our client wanted to set herself apart from all the other YTB travel agents, so she decided to have us create a site for her.
Together we decided to focus on a smaller niche and came up with West Coast Cruises. "Travel" is way too big, and even "cruises" is too big, so we decided to just discuss cruises that go to Alaska and Mexico and the cruise lines that serve those areas. For this client, we also created an AdWords campaign to drive traffic to the site.
This site is not one of our content-based, keyword-focused sites. this is what is called a lead generation page or a "squeeze" page. this is where you tell your story and give people an opportunity to sign up to learn more about your offer.
A squeeze page is critical to developing a mailing list of people interested in your product or service.
This is a pet project of mine. I have always wanted to learn to cook better tasting food using herbs and spices. So, I started calling chefs around the country and we are almost ready to launch a home-study course to teach people about how to use herbs and spices in their cooking. It is pretty fun. Check it out!
This site promotes a local t-shirt screen printer. The look is a modified version of what he had on a previously designed e-commerce site. The owner wanted to generate more traffic to the e-commerce site so we created a 20-page, content-based, keyword-focused site for him to help drive traffic.
Within a week of launching the site, the owner told me he was already getting phone calls from people who had found him through the web site.
Within 2 weeks of taking the site live, the site was ranking on the 1st page of Google for 2 keywords and on the second page of Google for a couple others.
This site deals with hardwood flooring and our plan is to have dealers, installers and manufacturers advertise on the site as a service to all of the people who are looking for hardwood floor information.
This is a way we are providing inexpensive small business web design services to create a "portal" or "directory" site that merchants can advertise on for a fraction of the cost of having their own dedicated site.
If you would like to be found on the internet, but don't have the budget yet to have your own site, you can always participate in one of our niche directory sites. Give us a call at (951) 212-4080.
This site is for a client of ours that sells hemophilia factor. That is the protein that helps people with hemophilia to have blod clots. He is passionate about his cause and donates a large portion of his sales to helping discover a cure for hemophilia.
He is in an even smaller niche that our powder coating client and traffic is slower, but when we created the site we figured we only needed 400 people a year to find the site and order factor anyway, so it is doing exactly what it is supposed to do.
3 months in and this client is getting contacts from the "contact us" form.
This site was created for a powder coater in Redlands, California. He is in a very niche business - a good thing when you want to show up high in the search engines.
We created a custom art head and content for the site using keywords about powdercoating. Within 6 weeks, he was showing up on the first page of Google. Now he is being found for 106 of his keywords. More than half of them on the first page of Google and more than half of those in the #1 position! Try a search for "bicycle powder coating, redlands" and see what I mean.
Mike, the owner of Five Star Coatings, had a gentleman call and asked if Mike powder coated bicycles because he had a few bikes to do. Thinking there were just a few, Mike asked how many and the gentleman replied, "ninety bicycle frames." This was another customer that found Mike through his web site and he is very happy with the results our inexpensive small business web design is bringing him.
