The right design for your website
In order to attract and retain customers your site needs to be easy to navigate, easy to find, and be able to track and create a unique experience once the customer does find your site. Web design is the first step in putting your business on the web. There are more than enough web design firms where price and ability are vastly different. Several of those web design firms reside in PA.
There is a great listing website called Interactivewebsites.com that lists designers by city in the state of Pennsylvania. In order to choose the right vendor who is going to meet your specific needs, you need to sit down with them and go over their capabilities and what they have done for other companies. Since these companies are in the design you would expect that their websites are designed to impress. So I would not go based on the look of the front page alone. You need to understand what they will do in house versus sending to an outside firm. For example, do they have the resources and knowledge to not only give you the front end appeal, but also be able to design the back end database and tracking tools to help you succeed.
One of those firms is called WebPageFx.com and they specialize not only web design and flash animation, but offer a comprehensive list of services to get your website noticed and track your return on investment. They can help in key areas such as Search Engine optimization (SEO) or help in the branding and advertising of your website. WebPageFx can also help to design and deploy technology solutions that will effeciently process and store your information.
WebPageFx has introduced a new service called pr2 which is a play on words incorporating press releases and Goggles page ranking technology to bring the two together.
