New Orleans Web Site Designer Slideshow Of Recent Web Site Designs

Over the last few days I took some snapshots of some of the websites me and my team have designed recently. As a New Orleans based Web Site Designer, it’s been a pleasure to watch my clients web projects and ideas come to life.

One of the trademarks of my site work is using the Content Management System (CMS) called Wordpress.  Wordpress is a software system that allows the end user to maintain, add, and update his/her content on the fly without touching the web’s design or structure.

This makes Wordpress idea for web site design work both in New Orleans and beyond. Additionally, Wordpress does great in the search engines, allows you to spread your content via Real Simple Syndication (RSS), and makes adding audio and video to your site an easy task.

To date, we’ve designed and managed web projects in New Orleans, San Francisco, New York City, Washington D.C., and Philadelphia.

So, being on-site is no limitation.  Distance is not an obstacle when building a web project as long as we lay out the goals and expectations from the beginning. Sure, sometimes these goals and expectations change, shift, and evolve.  This is expected. Clear communication at every step of the way is the goal on both my end and you – the client’s end.

Check out some of the sites we’ve done recently.  We will continue to update this and would love to hear back from you.

Wordpress is truly a revolutionary system and can work on virtually any web project.

Who can use video for their business?  I would venture to say everyone. It doesn’t matter what your business or service or message is.  Everyone can find a way to use video inexpensively and simply. You don’t have to use Oscar winning video equipment or have access to excellent sound.  The internet audience and your potential clients are very forgiving.

Perhaps you are promoting an upcoming performance.  Why not use video to get the word out.  Have some of the cast talk about their roles in the performance.  Get your potential audience involved and engaged with the cast of the show before it even hits the stage. Get testimonials from the last show perhaps in a different city or get some folks to attend a dress rehearsal.

There are so many things you can do with video.  Check out the video below just to get some more ideas.

And remember -If you’re looking for results in getting found in the search engines and getting more leads, look no further. We’re working in the New Orleans area and beyond.

How much should you be paying for video production in your business?

It doesn’t have to cost alot, but you can spend a pretty penny depending on the amount of resources you use and your own skill set.

Here are just a few idea:

At a very minimum, you can simply take pictures of your business in action – you, your staff, your office, you consulting, happy clients, etc. You name it.

Then, create a slideshow of these pictures and add text to give potential clients information about your business.  This is a very inexpensive yet effective way to market your business with video.

Additionally, you probably have all the tools you need right now on our laptop or desktop computer whether you have a Mac or PC.

If you’ve got a little more cash to invest, grab a Flip camera and start shooting. It CAN be that easy. The Flip Video Mino Series Camcorder title is the latest in the Flip camera series and does HD.  I have the original Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder title and it has served me well.

The Flip is great for customer and client testimonials, on the fly video messages and even recording activities out and about.  You can really push the limits of the flip and use it for anything.

Depending on your message, you may want to edit the footage for the flip, but that’s for a discussion on another day. Editing can be a fairly easy task as long as we remember to K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Sweetie)

Lastly, you can always hire someone to do a professional shoot of you and your business. Refer back to our other Video Your Business Series post here on What You Should Video.
This will require planning and coordination, but if the video person knows what their doing, you can really do a lot with just an hours worth of video footage.

I personally shoot video for businesses quite often and it’s becoming a hallmark service. Check out our services here and grab our free case study series on video marketing for your business.

It’s important to not only shoot good video but know how to edit it for your short attention spanned internet audience and  potential clients and properly distribute your finished videos across the internet for the maximum amount of exposure.

While working with client Deanne Depass Feaster of Studio 13 New Orleans, we had time to shoot a quick video about her experience working with me and how things are going with her website.

A big part of maintaining one’s website is continuing to add relevant content that your clients and prospects will find useful and relevant.  Each site I set up is ready to go with editing by you – the client.  There’s no need to call (although you are always welcome to :-) or learn html code or programming.  You are in the driver’s seat from the beginnig.

If you can update a Microsoft document, you have 98% of the skills you need to maintain your own website.  Deanne and I went over some of the basics during our visit.  Here she talks about the process.
