Level Zen Web Design
Web Design

Specializing in web design and development, this is where our experience and creativity really shines! The first steps to creating an engaging design is to collect all requirements and details about the web site that you have envisioned. The questions we ask (and you as the site owner should ask yourself) is what is the purpose of the site? What kind of information would you like conveyed? Who will be your audience? Then the fun part starts - the actual work!
We take the gathered information and bounce around ideas for implementation of improvements and a touch of originality where warranted. Once a design is established you are asked for your review and feedback, then we work as a team to complete the project within our previously agreed time frame and of course, budget.
The goal is to give you a finished product that not only will you be completely satisfied with, but happy enough that you will tell your friends about us!

Redesign

Already have a web site? Then you could also use our services as well. If your web site has been around for some time and the design is out dated and irrelevant, then you'll want to hire us! With a new appearance or a few subtle enhancements, you will be building excitement for your visitors and they will most likely come back to visit again!
Another consideration (and you should verify this even if you are not thinking of redesigning your site at this time) is many web sites out there do not have the same appearance in all browsers! What might look good in Firefox or Safari on a Mac sadly will not necessarily look well formatted in Internet Explorer. There is a standard in web design but because of quirky output from some browsers it's not always a gaurantee even if you follow the standards to their strictest level.
If you want us to check your site for you (free of charge!) drop us a line with your web address. We'll be more than happy to check your site for you and give you a comprehensive evaluation of our findings.
A key point is without a clean look all of the money and effort to get visitors to your site will be wasted! So stay aware.

Maintenance

Regardless if you're an ecommerce merchant with ever changing inventory or an enthusiast with an informational web site, maintenance and updates to content is absolutely necessary for several reasons. To name a few of the most important reasons other than the necessaities such as monthly specials for merchants, tour dates for entertainers, and the odd repairs that sometimes crop up, search engines absolutely crave ever changing content. A site that is not updated frequently is a site that will not have good page rank - period. For more information and a great read on this fact please see LINK on the right column.
To illustrate another reason to maintain your site, have you ever been to a site and thought it had interesting articles or images, so much so you bookmarked it? And then a few weeks or months later you visited it again only to be dissapointed that it's the same ole stuff you saw before?? If the content was different on your second visit would you come back for a third?? A fourth? Most likely yes, you would.

Keeping a web site's content up-to-date is critical to it's existance. If you want to keep your visitors, new from searches and repeats, no question you must change your content regularly.

Our web maintenance services can be contracted as-needed or on a monthly basis. Contact us to let us know how we can help you.

Application Programming

If you have a unique programming need we can offer our services. We are experts in PHP and ASP programming. These two languages are the main web based languages. Depending on the server type (Windows or Linux) we would recommend one of these languages to program in. Some programming examples are custom quote engines, custom registration forms, login and admin procedures, dynamic PDF form building, etc.

Search Engine Optimization

You cannot build a web site and think it will rank on the major search engines on it's own. There is work and effort involved to accomplish this. If you already have good page ranking than you probably know that the work to keep it there is never ending! Search engine optimization is not a one shot deal, it's all about steady nurturing. Search engines are continuously changing their ranking criteria and it is vital that your web site reflect the current standards. We can help you stay on top and relevant by using the most effective (and legitamite) methods for good ranking.

... you did a great job to budget and on time and surpassed our expectations. And mainly we felt great because you are so honest and didn´t just take the money and never contact us again!
