Local Search Engine Optimization

Search engine optimization success is determined 25% by on-page SEO efforts (what you do on your site) and 75% by off-site SEO (links to your site, social media conversations, etc.)

Exceptional Website for Exceptional Vets

Eastlake Vet Hospital’s former website was hosted by a proprietary Content Management System. The CMS-based site was poorly designed with non-semantic HTML markup, invalid HTML, and slow page load times; most of the CMS problems were also contributing to poor search engine optimization.

The new Eastlake Vet Hospital website, powered by WordPress, is not only exceptionally designed – it is optimized for search indexing and displays better in a variety of devices.

Part of our team’s work also involved optimizing the animal clinic’s Google AdWords campaign.

I just wanted to thank you for your fantastic work in providing me with a new professional website for my veterinary hospital. I really appreciate your understanding that this is an arena that is difficult for me and all the patience you displayed during the process. I now have a website that I am proud of. Couldn’t be happier and look forward to working with you in the future Carl D. Anderson DVM

Interior Design + WordPress

A new portfolio website for Sheridan + Company. To improve search engine optimization, I imported all of Jason’s Blogger posts into a new SEO-friendly domain, sheridaninteriordesign.com – powered by WordPress. The new site features photo galleries of Sheridan + Company interiors.

Scott is very easy to work with and comes to the table with more than enough ideas. The thing I appreciated the most about Scott is that he never gave up on me, even when I didn’t know exactly what I wanted.  Scott always went the extra mile to make my site sing.  His quick turnaround time and friendly approach are icing on the cake. I will, and already did, recommend Scott.

My second website for the City of Federal Way: a redesign for Dumas Bay Centre, a retreat center owned and operated by the City. The new site features rotating images of the event venue, panoramic views of the meeting rooms, downloadable catering menus, and an open source Content Management System.

Dumas Bay Centre, a former convent, is an affordable event venue for all types of groups — from business meetings and craft gatherings to memorials and weddings. The event center overlooks Dumas Bay from a 12-acre natural setting with a waterfront gazebo and historic garden. Three meeting rooms can accommodate up to 98 event attendees. And up to 90 guests can overnight in 67 guest rooms.
