1st Search Engine Optimization Blog

Hi All. We just posting here to let you know about our ongoing work to the Stroudsburg Attorneys - Stroudsburg Lawyers website of Fisher & Fisher Law Offices. We’ve done the SEO work and have them rank top 5 for all of their keyword phrases in Google. They needless to say are quite pleased. We’ve also done some pretty major updates to the website to make it more user friendly. It has a wider width for better viewing and also updated graphics for a newer, cleaner look. Check it out today.

Well we’ve just finished up the website design and eCommerce store sections of the Celtic Memorial Products website. We did the complete project including Webdesign, Graphic Design, and Search Engine Optimization. This project include integrated SEO which we often do for our design customers along with the website design and setup.

Ecommerce SEO is a rather involved process that requires Search Engine Optimization know how and programming expertise to make the shopping cart SEO friendly. We of course are experienced in these somewhat intricate tasks. It’s a bit more involved than just working on a regular website. Working on these types of sites are more like working on a CMS system requiring some programming with languages like PHP which not everyone can do. So we have to know our SEO practices and how to program those practices into the platform.

We’ve done this for the Celtic Memorial Products site and the results have come out very nicely. The store looks wonderful and the SEO results are outstanding - top ten rankings in Google for all keyword phrases targeted. We did this in a very short amount of time after the store was up and running. It doesn’t take long when you know your business, which we of course do. We can do the same for your eCommerce store as well, because let’s face it; what’s the point of having an eCommerce or online store if nobody is going to find it. Obviously if nobody can find your store, no one is going to buy products from it.

We’re writing to let everone know that the Community Fundraising website design was just finished up. We started with the design and the whole process took about 4 weeks. We normally do the initial design in about 2 weeks, and then show it to the client for review. Then we get their input and make any necessary design changes to the final product. This usually takes another week or two, although sometimes the clients delay this a bit with indecision or in getting us needed information like website content if we’re not authoring that. We are patient and flexible however.

The Community Fudraising site is a fluid width CSS website set up to adjust to both normal and widescreen monitors in any browser. We did the graphics and logo as well. In the end Community Fundraising President Renee Ebert opted for the simpler logo, but it still manages to be very catchy in it’s simplicity. The other logo we had made for her was quite striking and fancy, but she did want to go with a simpler style. We always cater to the client, because it is in the end their site. She wanted a clean, professional, warm, and somewhat earthy look to the site, and she got everything she asked for. This makes us happy because we have yet another very happy customer.

We program the shopping cart software with the proper code, whether it be XHTML, PHP, Javascript, etc. Most of these carts use archaic HTML that uses 3 to 4 times the amount of code and pushes your content way down to the bottom of your webpages; exactly where you don’t want it.

Well we’ve just finished up website design the Legacy Wedding Video website. It is really stunning if we do say so ourselves. As you may well know, the Legacy Wedding Video website was under construction and has just been finished up. We spent a lot of time on it and it is looking beautiful. It will receive some slight tweaks over the next few weeks and months I’m sure, but you get the basic idea.

They have been doing video’s all during this time, and they were wonderful. The video’s turned out terrific. They shot a lot of footage and Rob did some masterful editing. You’ll be able to watch samples of the video’s shortly right on the Legacy Website.

It is very artistic and natural. Probably unlike anything you’ve seen before. Or if it is like something you have seen it is just done so much better. Please check it out; Legacy Wedding Video of Northeastern Pennsylvania and let us know what you think. Leave us a comment on here. We’d love to hear from you and get your input.
