A Good User Experience Is Still The Golden Rule
Posted by admin in Web Development on January 8, 2010
Tonight, I decided to take the bold step of replacing this site’s WordPress theme. I was looking for a design that was a little more bold and flashy. I found this awesome theme that was red and had a real edge to it. So without delay, I made the switch.
I was really proud of myself! It took me a few days to install and customize this site’s first theme, but the new red-hotness took me just a few hours. Read the rest of this entry »
The New Blog Is Up!
Posted by admin in Web Development on December 14, 2009
I’ve been spending a good bit of my off-time designing this Search Marketing blog, www.searchmarketingspin.com. Finding the right template alone took me forever. But it’s done and I’m thrilled with it. I’d like to thank Chris Wallace, for the fantastic design, and all of the WordPress fanatics for the great plug-in recommendations. I’d also like to thank those of you who visited my old site on a regular basis. 30-50 unique visits a day is pretty good for a young blog. Read the rest of this entry »
SEO Friendly Shopping Cart System for Small Business
Posted by admin in SEO / Social Media, Web Development on December 10, 2009
A few years ago, oh… I’d say 2005, I was contacted by a small business owner who was selling hearing-aids online. The first time we spoke, he mentioned that the Web designer he initially hired took his money and ran. And as you can only imagine, he was frustrated and wary of Web designers. So, I asked the gentleman to send me his log-in information so I could take a look at the backend. This is where I met and fell in love with osCommerce.com. Since that day, I’ve helped develop dozens of osCommerce solutions for small businesses.
osCommerce.com is a free open-source shopping cart system that works like a charm. It functions as a CMS, so once you have the software set-up and configured on your server, it’s very easy to maintain. Also, since it’s open source, there are a ton of free add-on features http://addons.oscommerce.com/ that make it even more customizable for both the site owner and the customer. Some of the features osCommerce offers are Read the rest of this entry »

Facebook Connect Comment Box for WordPress
Posted by admin in Facebook Connect, SEO / Social Media, Web Development on December 15, 2009
One of my goals this year was to get absolutely hands-on with Social Media tools. Solely focusing all of my time on SEO had given me limited room to branch out into social media marketing. But, I get the impact that social has on search and vice-versa. I understand that the two practices will need to work together well.
The first step in getting my hands dirty is socializing my WordPress blog. I’m going to be testing and integrating social media developer code, plug-ins and widgets that surpass traditional social bookmarking tools. I want to get a better functional idea of what’s available for both blogs and marketing sites. So let’s begin. Read the rest of this entry »
