Samples and examples

Here are just a few of the projects I have designed, executed and/or contributed to over the years. I hope they will help answer some of your questions, or spark some ideas about what we can do together. For more details on how a particular project was done, please see Services.

Websites

Here are just a few of the public facing websites that I've written, designed and coded. My sites are written using XHMTL and CSS only. Some include a little AJAX and/or PHP.

Blogs and CMS sites

Blogs are a terriffic way to get your business noticed online in a hurry. They are also great search marketing tools with the right plugins, widgets and tweaks. Set up correctly, they are easy for anyone (yes anyone) to maintain, but time constraints have a way of catching up with people assigned to write for a blog.

That's where I come in. I can correctly set up your blog to get you indexed where potential customers can find you within days (an dsometimes hours). I can also keep your blog filled with fresh, engaging content. My expanded blog services will create your presence in the forums, social marketing sites, etc. and make sure your blog gets the links, traffic and ultimately, the search ranking you need to remain visible to current and prospective clients.

Here are some of the blogs I have created, written for, or helped grow.

Newsletters - print to multimedia

I have ghosted inhouse print newsletters, which continue to be the best way to go for many audiences (with PDFs for website downloads). There are two ways I've helped companies with their online newsletter options. 1) Delivering the entire newsletter to the reader through email (and now some RSS) 2) Driving readers to a web page to view html and Powerpoint, audio or video content. If the direct links to the multimedia examples here no longer work (they're external and not under my control), please do hover your mouse over the comment box for the transcript of both presentations

Articles - print magezine to website

Articles are a great way to market many businesses online. The web requires an enormous amount of new fuel to keep moving forward. One offline magazine article can be rewritten into an article for your site that you also post on several directory sites for others to use as well.

Creating pages for the top web2.0 "authority" sites like Squidoo, Hubpages, Tumblr, etc. is very similar on the surface. Like articles submitted to directories, they are usually shorter, single pages of content.This content can get long and involved and look like a minisite when done. But even then it's not really done. That page needs to be promoted the same ways your blog or site do, so we will need to treat their creation as separate projects.

Next to articles, few things work as hard to establish your reputation online than your own eBooks and special reports.
