web design

I was referred to Dr. Siranush Cholakian to maintain her website content-wise. I advised her to upgrade her already existing wordpress site, since the version was very old. It is important when you have a content management system that you not only adding new content to the site for SEO purposes, but you also need to upgrade the software itself on a regular basis purely for security reasons. Unfortunately, websites are hacked into on a regular basis and when it happens to you, it is a pain in the butt to say it the least. Most professional web hosting companies will now alert you, when there is suspicious activity going on.  In order to update her wordpress site properly, I also had to rework the theme/design of the site, so I improved it and made it responsive as well. Lately, I have been using the Avada theme for a lot of the wordpress sites I have put together. It is a clean design and it comes with a lot of great functionalities that make it a lot simpler to work with. I also added a bunch of graphics to her site, to make it come more alive visually. I kept the original logo/design concept with the earth and the blue and green colors, referring to the idea of holistic medicine that is grounded in something natural, concrete and wise.

Original clothing designs for children to celebrate learning. Worked in collaboration with copy writer Sylvia Chappell to produce a message that was consistent visually as well as in writing. Also did the photography of the t-shirts that are used on the pages. Created banner design and put together all graphics used.

Created a Joomla website for a successful Optician Store on the Upper Eastside, promoting the product selections and brands that they have including the hours of their in-house optometrist. The site is fully responsive. Graphics are pulled from frame lines that the store work with. We chose to use pictures of the interior of the store as it was especially designed by a German Architect and is visually pleasing in every way.

I worked with Veronica Moya on a number of different web based projects, including search engine optimization and web updates of two of her old websites, one html site and one wordpress. Then we built weddingpackagesnyc.com to reach a specific audience that look to get married in Central Park or Central New York City. Website is built in Joomla, and is search optimized focusing content on keywords that her target audience use and using the Joomla component Aimy Sitemap.
