TopCustom Web Design with AJAX and Web 2.0 Standards

The atmosphere on the internet is ever changing. Today's clients require precision in execution, quick ROI, and maximum exposure. While today's users demand more and more from the sites they choose to frequent. To achieve this perfect balance we take many things into careful consideration:

  • Information Architecture: Information is the foundation of the website. It is essential to assemble all the many pieces of information together within a strong, yet flexible structure which can grow as the website evolves. We carefully structure this fundamental element to ensure that maximum growth is possible.
  • Layout & Design: The next $500 million dollar website will fail if the site is impossible to use. Case in point. We work to achieve a seamless layout and a functional design which will deliver your message and move users through the site.
  • Copyright and Site Text: The average internet user spends less than 5 seconds to determine if the site is worthy of his time. We have spent countless hours honing our design and copyright skills to ensure that your message will get across to your visitors.
  • Competitor's Resources: Your competitor's strategy will drive your business model. Many industries participate in a constant "Cold War" situation of one-upmanship. We stay on top of market and design innovations which will make you an industry leader.
  • E-Commerce: A commercial site cannot survive without some level of e-commerce. If user subscriptions, advertising dollars, and/or product sales create revenue for your business model, we can find ways to increase your conversion rate. This item is so critical we dedicated a whole section below to it.
  • Content Management: The ever evolving internet demands the ever evolving website. We implement management solutions which allow you to post fresh content on your website at your pace and without a geek in the family. Blogs, news feeds, and product updates keep your site fresh and attractive to users and search engines.

Master Web Design consistently delivers the same superior quality on every project.

TopAffordable E-Commerce Tools for your website.

Be it a simple user registry, or a complex online store with thousands of products, Master Web Design has the experience to enable your website with full E-Commerce capabilities. However, E-Commerce is not to be undertaken by the uninformed developer. This sector is the primary target for identity thieves and hackers which have automated tools to help them locate vulnerable websites. Just look at what Google turns up...

With the consequence for online security breaches mounting, we go to great lengths to secure your user's data. This is just a short list of how we protect your investment and reputation.

  • Data Encryption: If they can't see it, they can't hack it. We install a 256 Bit SSL Encryption Certificate for every area of a site which will collect or ask for user information. Your customers are more vigilant than you think when it comes to looking for the lock at the bottom of the browser.
  • Secure Online Management: We ensure that your users will only see the data they are entitled to see. With secure login forms and strict data access rights Jane will never see John's information. And Mike the Hacker won't have access to any of it.
  • Secure Online Forms: Hackers have automated programs which seek out online forms and attempt to expose weak points in your E-Commerce applications. We validate every form field to ensure that only the data WE expect will be allowed through our checkpoints.
  • Path Validations: Many undetected website flaws can be uncovered simply by playing with the URL of a site. Click this broken link to see a demo. Database errors could reveal your underlying data structure, File Not Found (or 404) errors reveal your file structure, even source code could be revealed. We use strict testing to make sure that no "False Paths" will reveal sensitive information.

TopE-Commerce Content Management Systems

Of course, an E-Commerce system is useless if you cannot keep your products fresh or receive your orders. Every E-Commerce solution deployed by Master Web Design is optimized for maximum flexibility.

  • Content Management: Site operators can update site copy, change layouts, and reposition content for maximum user conversion. Though innovative administration tools we can enable even the most non-technical person to become an E-Commerce Mogul in very short order.
  • Order Management: Watch your orders arrive in in real time with our order management utility. Know when problems develop in your supply chain with integrated reporting and monitoring tools. And resolve order discrepancies with a mouse click. All though an elegant and simple interface.
  • User Management: Monitor your customer base through your online interface. User accounts are cross linked with past order history and recently viewed products. A detailed notes system will allow you to keep tabs on your customers for future reference.
  • Product Management: Populate your cart with products one or one thousand at a time with automated population tools. Attach multiple product images and assign a product to multiple categories. Related products, discounts, and real time inventory control is all tied into your administration control panel.
  • Automatic SEO: If you build it, they will never come unless the search engines know about it. Our systems are designed to be archived by search engines like Google, Yahoo!, and MSN. Keywords can be assigned at the site, category, and product level to allow engines, and users, to drill down into the site for maximum results and "Natural Traffic".

TopWebsite Content Management Systems

The ability to add custom content to your website quickly can be a powerful tool. News sections, corporate Blogs, customer testimonials, and industry news sections can all be excellent ways to maintain a connection with your customers and provide fresh content to your site.

Master Web Design has developed what we consider the easiest and most effective method to keep your site's content fresh... Introducing the Edit-in-Place CMS!

Imagine being able to browse your site and change any piece of text you see with simple formatting, spell checking, and live preview functionality. Simply click the text you want to edit, make a change, and hit "Save".... Now, it's that simple.

TopOnline Marketing and Search Engine Optimization & Submission

As we stated earlier, you can have the world's greatest website, but if no one knows about it, you're sunk... and quick. Master Web Design can notify the world about your web presence. Through proven and innovative techniques we can to drive targeted traffic to your site which will directly result in leads, signups, or purchases... whichever the case requires.

So, how do we do that? It takes a carefully coordinated marketing plan, some creative thinking, and a little luck.

  • Search Engine Optimization and Marketing (SEO / SEM): Users who come from a search result cost you nothing, are targeted users seeking your product or service, and are far more likely to commit through the purchase process than traffic from other sources. However when you are in a market filled with 1.5 million other sites viewing for the same traffic, that top position can be difficult to obtain.

    We ensure your site is optimized for the search engines to index. Valid HTML code, proper layout and data structure, aggressive link campaigns, and the right keywords can dramatically increase your rankings. Some sites and services benefit from targeted articles and press releases (more on that in a bit). It all depends on the needs of your business model.
  • Pay Per Click Advertising: Instant gratification for the lonely website. PPC campaigns can deliver extremely targeted traffic to your website for as little as $0.01 per visitor. The benefit to this type of service is that you only pay for the traffic you receive. The downside is that placing an ad improperly can cost you thousands of lost advertising dollars when you bring in the "wrong" traffic. We work with you to analyze and pinpoint your target market. Campaigns which target specific keywords which relate to your target audience will eliminate the unwanted traffic and bring in only those with cash in hand.
  • Press Releases and Article Submissions: The only thing better than telling the world about your great new site, is letting other people tout your services for you. By issuing press releases to the right audience, your site can be mentioned by hundreds of other authority websites. Suddenly, bloggers are blogging, writers are drafting, and new traffic is flowing in from all over the internet. A single press release to the right audience can generate substantial revenue and exposure for your brand. This advertising technique can be very powerful.
