My name is Jacques Ronaldi and I am a professional software developer with over 25 years of experience in computer software development in commercial and scientific fields. In order to provide my clients with the top-of-the-line websites they wanted and needed, websites that surpassed the industry standards, I have evaluated the different technologies available and the various criteria that makes a website a success!
All websites are not equal. An efficient website, a website that simplifies your life, a website that has a positive impact on your business must absolutely meet some important criteria:
- Search engine friendly - accessible to Google, Yahoo and others
Your customers, your visitors, your potential buyers, everyone must have a way to find your website before they can even have a chance to do business with you. Sadly (and surprisingly!) a great many websites are built in such a way that they don't stand a chance of ranking high on Google and other search engines. If nobody can find you, then you don't even need a website! We make your website search-engine friendly.
- A responsive website
Even after they have found you, it's important to understand that visitors are not very patient. Everything goes fast in the Internet age and the surfers' attention span is measured in seconds... If your website does not quickly appear, if it does not provide timely response when the visitor clicks on your links, if it feels slow and sluggish, they will go somewhere else, never to come back! We host your website on a responsive, commercial server.
- Your website is your image...
When a prospective customer finds your website, what he sees will determine the way he thinks of your business. What will he think if your graphic design is bad and unprofessional? What will he think if your website looks like it's been built by an amateur over the weekend? What if it pops up an error message on a customer's website browser? What if it's full of typos or outdated information? We make sure your website shows a solid, professional image of your business.
- Take notice of Internet standards
The world is full of "standards" and for good reasons. Website standards make sure that your website follows an "established" success pattern, they help ensure that what works now will keep on working later on, as technology moves on. For example, XHTML and CSS are important web standards that help make your website easier to maintain and evolve, quick to display and accessible to a broader range of devices or platforms, such as Windows, Mac, Linux, iPods and so on. They make your website more flexible and easier to index by search engines. We build your website with all the standards in mind.
- Your website should have a goal
Everybody has a website so it's easy to just have one too... but really, your website should have a goal. It could be a make information easily accessible, make it easy to register to a golf course or sell your product online. There are all kinds of possible "goals" for a website, but knowing why you are building your website will have an impact on how the website is built. Better yet, knowing what the goal is makes it possible to measure that goal and improve your website as you go. We build your website around measurable goals.
- Make it easy for everyone
You work hard to build a great website and bring visitors around. Once they are hooked, the next thing that can make it work or fail is how easy you make it for your prospective customer. If they cannot quickly "understand" how to find their way into your website, if you make them think too hard, they will simply move on to the next company: the one with an easier website... We make your website a breeze to use.
- Get control over your own website
The most important aspect of any website is its content! Your website is not a random series of texts, images, video documents and such. Your business evolves and your website must evolve too. As soon as your website will be completed and online, chances are that you will want to fix a few things or add new texts or documents. Most websites won't let you do that without calling the webmaster and wait for him to do the changes (and charge you for it.) We always include a CMS with your website so that you or your employees take charge of your website easily.
