The Ocean Foundation: Supporting Those Who Protect Healthy Oceans

Monday, October 10th, 2011

Ocean Foundation Website Screen ShotWebsight Design’s helps The Ocean Foundation protect the world’s oceans though the launch of OceanFDN.org. The site was designed to offer support to a community of organizations committed to protecting ocean environments from the trend of destructive behavior around the world. It is highly stylized and made to enhance the user experience.

With a creative photo slider and easy-to-use tabs, the new site offers a system for newsletter signup, donation collection, photo & video content uploading, and financial advisory toolkit sharing. WSD also conducted a professional search engine optimization (SEO) audit of the OceanFDN site. From this, an SEO framework has been implemented which will hopefully lead to further optimization of their site.

The OceanFDN site connects donors who care about the coasts and oceans with organizations looking for grants and other support. Their portfolio ranges from local to global projects and reaches across the U.S., and as far as Barcelona, Spain.

The Ocean Foundation not only facilitates project financing, but it also provides consulting and general advice to its organization partners. To accomodate this, WSD has designed an OceanFDN Blog and Virtual Newsroom on the website, so The Ocean Foundation can more effectively communicate with its fans and other community members.

These features will allow OceanFDN.org to continue to strive towards its organizational goal: “Tell Us What You Want To Do For The Ocean, We Will Take Care Of The Rest.”

Clapper, Patti, Schweizer & Mason’s Fight for the Legal Rights of Mesothelioma Victims

Monday, June 6th, 2011

Websight Design has just completed the redesign of mesothelioma-attorney.com.

Clapper Patti Scheizer & Mason has been a client of ours for many years. This new web site was an interesting Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing project.

We have worked hand in hand with Bothwell Marketing- a colleague of ours specializing in design for law firms. We took the new design, and placed it on top of Clapper Patti’s existing code base, which we wrote and manage. The client was able to get a fresh new “face,” without having to do a complete re-working of the site’s code. So the site looks new on the outside, but still has all the programming features on the inside, and they didn’t lose any data or search engine positioning.

Clapper Patti has been working with Bothwell to revamp their print campaign. The redesign of the website went hand-in-hand with this marketing effort.

We also used the new design theme to update the layouts of the Pay Per Click pages. These are standalone web pages that users land on if they click on an ad for the law firm that they see on another web site. With PPC pages, we are able to help the client track which keywords are generating interest and convert them into form submissions, which translate into leads for the law firm.

The new homepage emphasizes how Clapper Patti can help and has helped victims of mesothelioma.

Clapper Patti Schweizer & Mason is a law firm specializing in asbestos diseases, particularly mesothelioma. As experts in this field, they have recognized as one of the foremost law firms in the country. They have deep experience and knowledge about asbestos products, mesothelioma treatment and diagnosis, and about the companies who are responsible for diseases related to asbestos.

They fight to provide their clients a better life, deal out justice, and give victims the legal assistance they deserve.

Headquarters are located in California but they operate throughout the United States.

Discover Arizona’s Number One Casino

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

We are particularly proud to present you the new web site of Cliff Castle Casino Hotel, the favorite casino destination resort in Arizona.

Their previous site was outdated and didn’t reflect the extent of what the resort had to offer by way of gambling, restaurants, entertainment, and lodging.

We redesigned the user interface to put the focus on the spectacular photos of their venue. The compelling photos provide eye candy and visual interest. The updated navigation makes finding your way around the site easier. A red, black, and gold-toned color scheme reflects the rich history of the Yavapai-Apache tribe, as well as the upscale nature of the resort.

As far as programming, we established a visitor conversion funnel to become a player club member and integrated third-party reservation software, so that users can book their stay online.

We also built a really extensive content management system, which allows Cliff Castle to update the photos and the content on each page, as well as upload PDFs to advertise getaway specials, showcase restaurant menus, and provide more information on the venues.

Additionally, there are administrative functions in the content management system to manage their player club members.

In the future a mobile version of the web site will be produced.

Browse on the site and discover all the amazing things Cliff Castle Casino Hotel offers. Start by discovering the beautiful accommodations, and all the packages suggested. Have a look at the gaming, enjoy the different promotions, join the Castle club and learn more about the games you could play there- slots, poker and blackjack. Find out about all the family activities, restaurants and lounges, and the meeting and event center, which is perfect for planning business meetings, corporate retreats, weddings and more.

Cliff Castle Casino Hotel is the best place for everyone and every occasion.
