Checklist to determine if your website needs remodeling:

Does your web site deliver results?
Does your website rank poorly - or not at all in seach engines?
Has your web site remained exactly the same since the day it went public?
Did you add bits of info helter skelter over time and now you have a mess?
Do people email you because they can't find information on your site?
Are you ready to grow your site?
Do you get phone calls and emails from people trying to get information that is not
on your site?

There are many reasons to rebuild a website. Fads have come and gone, technology has advanced at lightning speed. Results haven't always equaled expectations. Web viewers expectations have grown. Could it be the flashiness has grown old....or the web site just doesn't deliver? Our knowledge and experience taught us the keys to successful web sites. A well planned and executed website that is easy to use, and is interesting and informative has come to be the benchmark for a successful web site. That's what we do. And we rebuild websites so they greatly improve ranking in search engines because the way your website looks is only a very small part of the overall impact your website will make in the maze of sites already competing for customers on the web.

For the detailed list of all the factors that go into a great website that sells, see our concepts.

Take a look at the "Before" and "After" screens below. If you're interested in remodeling and improving your website, call us.

In the fast paced internet, updating a web site every two and a half years is reasonable, however, the more trendy you expect to be, the more often you would need to update your website. I have seen sites that change their face (appearance and function) almost monthly. I think that's confusing for most people. We aren't in that market.

The Buccaneer
Our website design to 2005

This site worked well and ranked well, but with the speed of change in the internet, the old website needed a facelift. This blends current visual trends, while maintaining its strong search engine positioning characteristics.

The Buccaneer
Our most curent website Update

The Buccaneer ranks as one of the top 500 best resorts in the world (Conde Nast) and is one of the most luxurious and historic Caribbean Resorts, complete with its own golf course. This site details the many amenities and services for guests, island maps and events schedules, plus full color brochure and on-line golf course core card.

Antilles Resorts
Our website design to 2005
Remodeled from a homemade site

We remodeled this Caribbean resort website to implement a more streamlined and contemporary look to the website. This site is well search engine optimized, and like many of our other sites, continues to rank very high in search engines.

This custom website provides travel information, dining and shopping, and tour recommendations. Seven mid-range resorts are offered with rates, descriptions, and photos. Universal navigation allows the user to easily get anywhere on the site. Consistency of design creates a comfortable and familiar environment for web visitors. .
