JorgeSantana.com’s Redesign Promotes His Newest Album, Gracias Madrecita

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011

Screenshot of the redesigned JorgeSantana.com siteWebSight Design is proud to announce a fresh redesign for JorgeSantana.com. Jorge Santana, brother of the legendary Carlos Santana, decided to redesign his site to announce his new album, Gracias Madrecita. The launch date of the redesigned site was coordinated to coincide with the album’s release date. To handle post release sales, the site includes a 3rd party online store through which Jorge’s fans can purchase his new incredible songs!

Specific elements included a big, colorful announcement of the new album on the home page and changes to the site-wide background image. Replacing an image of Jorge singing and playing guitar from his previous album, Here I Am, the new background depicts a stylized photo of the musician’s hands playing the guitar. This background comes directly from the Gracias Madrecita CD insert artwork.

The new website design also features two additional pages for Gracias Madrecita. One shows photos from the making and recording of the album, while the other provides MP3 song samples which can be played directly on the site. The site also gives users links to buy the album online. Finally, the redesign adds Gracias Madrecita to Jorge’s discography database.

Prominent new features on the site are the home page—with its Gracias Madrecita theme and album artwork—and the Gracias Madrecita pages added deeper into the site.

The newest release of the site adds vibrant color and design elements into the existing site structure. By swapping out the subtle site-wide background image, visitors get a sense of change throughout the site. The new Gracias Madrecita graphic elements are a great color play and focal point for the site.

Doobons Launches as the First Truly Professional and Patient-Oriented Medical Marijuana Resource!

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011

WebSight Design is very proud to be a part of the Doobons.com launch. WSD was involved with extensive development and design, as well as search engine optimization. The Doobons site is clean and organized, creating a highly user-friendly interface.

Doobons is a legal medical marijuana dispensary search engine dedicated to providing medical marijuana advice, promotions, and other resources to anybody who might benefit from the use of medical marijuana.

Doobons traces its beginnings to an unsuspecting family member whose father was diagnosed with cancer. When traditional treatments were unable to effectively manage the patient’s pain and chemotherapy was causing a debilitating inability to eat, Doobons’ founder began to search for alternative medicines.

Unaware of how to navigate the world of legal medical marijuana, the Doobons founders quickly realized that no user-friendly and moreover no patient-friendly resources existed to serve those in need of this alternative medicine.

When he saw the great response the patient had, he knew that something had to be done to help patients and their caregivers. Doobons was born.

The site features interactive maps of medical marijuana dispensaries, doctors, lawyers, or other cannabis related businesses. Additionally, location based deals and discounts allow patients to access the very best price for their medication.

Doobons also provides comprehensive resources, such as information on how to get your medical marijuana doctor’s recommendation or cannabis card, which strains or forms of intake are best for particular illnesses or ailments, as well as current up-to-date news.

Doobons is committed connecting medical marijuana patients with the legal help and rights information that they need.

The Doobons team is highly committed to the cure and treatment of ailments which can be treated by alternative medicines. They have begun donating and giving back to the foundations such as The American Cancer Society.

Doobons business members can create profiles including video and photo galleries, company information, reviews section, and product menu option. They also have  the opportunity to create and post banner and geo-targeted ads on the Doobons site, as well as send out email notifications to Doobons patient members.

Doobons.com had its official public launch over the past weekend, November 11 to 13, at the HempCon medical marijuana show in San Jose, and the owners are gearing up to have the Southern California release this coming weekend, November 18 to 20, at the KushExpo in Orange County.
