Digital Design and Content Services

Boudell Web Works produces quality websites with a focus on utility as well as design. We create sites that navigate easily and command attention while providing purpose for your visiting clients and customers.

Dynamic Web Site

To enhance the experience for each visitor, Boudell Web Works creates dynamic websites which respond to individual user input. Not only do dynamic websites adapt to user-provided information, they also allow for easier content and style updates than traditional HTML and help ensure style consistency throughout the website.

Images

Boudell Web Works optimizes images for the web to reduce file sizes for faster loading of the websites. Larger images and higher resolutions may be requested as required for gallery portfolios, given the appropriate server settings and connections.
You can provide your own images for your website, or we can produce them for you. Our team can create original graphics customized for your business or create an image generated from already existing elements. Does your business already have a strong business identity? Then your website will be designed to complement the business media you already use. If you are both new to business and new to the web, we can help you build your business identity from letterheads and logos to brochures and websites.

New Media

New Media refers to any digital data (and the technology supporting that data) that can be transmitted through a network whether it is an .mp3 audio file, a Flash video file, a PDF document or GIF animation. Interactive PR with today's new media can include blogs, video-sharing sites and social networks, all opportunities to promote your website! Boudell Web Works can help create your very own network and new media domain or help you to connect existing networks and services to your customized website.

Audio and Video

Music lends atmosphere to a website. For some websites, such as sites for local bands, music might be the main attraction. Whether you want soft ambient tones for the background or streaming video of your latest performance, we can work with you to set the right tone for your audience.
Videos can inform as well as entertain. Showing your product or service in action offers incentive for visitors to investigate further. Perhaps there is great history and craftsmanship in how your product is made or you want to show how easy your product is to use. We work with videographers to get your video web ready, based on the specifications of your server and projected bandwidth restrictions.

Animation

Boudell Web Works employs Flash as a authoring environment for animations, including the animations for this site. Animations can utilize photography, vector graphics, text and audio in combination to create an outstanding presentation, designed to complement your site in style.

Layout and Design

This is the basic presentation of the site and is the intrinsic cornerstone on which the rest of the media is layered. Its foundation uses everything in art and design from color therory to font control. The approach to layout and design will depend on your intended audience, whether you expect the interaction to be traditional and the layout basic for a formal brochure-type website or whether you expect more playful interaction and dynamic designs like you might expect for an informal entertainment site for children. Taking the time to get to know your tastes and expectations helps Boudell Web Works create a site well-matched to your interests and your audience.

Copy and Research

Search engine rankings are primarily text-driven, so even with the fanciest multimedia, your site might be overlooked if you don't also have relevant text. Many businesses provide written copy based on already existing advertising media. However, many clients new to the web or new to business may know what they want to promote and may even have all the images they need, but find the business of writing content about the product or service daunting and time-consuming. Boudell Web Works can research background material related to your website's purpose and provide text that is rich in keywords, while still sounding natural and staying topical, all desirable qualities for search engine rankings.

Databases

Whether you are keeping a list of members for your password-protected site, your upcoming dates and events or your entire product inventory for an online store, databases help to make it happen. Databases store and organize information relevant to your business and are capable of presenting this information in a variety of forms. Information from a product on the inventory database could be combined with purchaser information to create an invoice specific to that purchase, to generate a coupon based upon the product selection and to predict future inventory needs. Databases can also be used to give greater content control over the website and make future updates easier.
