Convert Your Web Site

A commerical Web site includes much information that rarely changes, but singificant data can change daily. For instance, pricing and promotions fluctuate as often as needed in today’s marketplace. If yours is a small or medium-sized business, can you afford to keep a full-time webmaster on staff to handle the changes you need?

Managed content is the key to success these days. Large companies use content management systems, or content portals, to handle their presence on the World-Wide Web. Even though your business is far smaller than that of an IBM, you still need to be able to respond quickly and efficiently to your market and customers.

Successful Web sites are not born and maintained on the whims of their owners. Good sites are driven by the needs of their potential customers—Web visitors.

You create products or sell services you design to meet the needs of your market. Use the same approach to your Web site: the customer’s, or visitor’s, needs and expectations come first.

Need to change your online advertising or marketing copy now? Wouldn’t it be easier and more efficient to be able to login to your site and simply add the information right away? Of course it would.

James River Technical Communications specializes in creating Web sites based on proven open-source content management systems, such as Joomla!, Drupal, and WordPress. If yours is a static HTML site, we can convert it to a managed content site within three weeks (or less, depending on the complexity of your site).

We will:

• Establish the design requirements and specifications from interviews with you and your staff
• Create the underlying database and implement the content management system
• Establish the information architecture needed to efficiently catalog and present your Web content
• Ensure that the new site conforms with current best practices for search engine optimization
• Ensure that your site complies with at least the basic tenets of Web accessibility and user design practices
• Move your site from our development site to your domain quickly and efficiently with minimum down-time

Your cost will be very reasonable compared with others. We will offer you a contract based on our interviews with you and your staff to establish your operational requirements for your site. You will not be charged by the hour for our work; your price will not change, unless you add more to your project after we begin work.
