Mild Bills

1call — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 19:59:57 +0000

Mild Bills had an existing shopping cart system setup, but felt that the design was too old looking. They hired 1 Call Service to bring some “pop” to their store and make it more engaging/appealing. We started with a new look using the chili’s colors (red and green).

Case Study – Granite and Tile Outlet

1call — Thu, 30 Sep 2010 14:47:17 +0000

Granite and Tile Outlet came to us wanting to have their site redesigned. They stated that they were not receiving any results from their web presence and didn’t like the current look. One of our staff took a look at their site and drew up the following asessment:

1. Maps Not Integrated Into the Site	5. Text is Cut Off and 6. Position is Incorrect for Locations
There have been vast improvements on the part of Google maps to allow full integration into a website. These links not only take you off of the site (although they do open in a new window instead of replacing the current one), one of the links is misspelled, which causes Yahoo! Maps to throw an error.	Site was originally viewed in Mozilla Firefox. Upon viewing in Internet Explorer, the site renders as it should. However, when designing a website, one should always design so it renders correctly in ALL browsers.
2. Width of Middle Section is Larger Than Top and Bottom	7. Site Copyright is No Longer in Effect
The width of the center section is just slightly larger than the top and bottom. This is already pronounced due to the granite borders, but then the eye is given an uncomfortable feeling, since it always tries to match up lines and in this case, it cannot.	This site says copyright 2007. To the casual web visitor, this tells them "Hey, I haven’t updated this site since 2007, so all of this information is probably old, and I may not even be in business any longer." It doesn’t assure them. If the company can’t keep their website fresh and updated, what does that say about the company as a whole?
3. Middle Section Created in Flash	8. Torn Effect on "Granite" Looks Fake and Unprofessional
When designing in flash, you lose accessibility. The main content is here, so there is no way for Search Engines to tag and catalog this information. Also, the logo of is repeated in such a close proximity to the logo at the top, causing the page to become unbalanced and uncomfortable to look at.	This design element has the granite all cut up and jagged. It looks fake and also goes against the professionalism the company is trying to show in the image gallery.
4. CC Logos Are Too Large	9. Logo is Unappealing and Unprofessional
Most companies on the web today accept credit cards. The credit card logos are too large and draw attention from the other aspects of the site. In the case of this site, just mentioning in text that all credit cards are accepted would be sufficient	There is nothing memorable about this logo and it looks to have been put together at the last minute. In keeping with the "initials" theme, there should be a period after the "O". This logo, like the torn effect, goes against the professional look that the company wants to convey.

With this as a starting point, our designer started with a rough sketch of the new layout for the site:

From that point, it was simply a matter of fleshing out the rough sketch in Photoshop and then applying the design to our Content Management System to achieve the final result:

In addition to the design layout of the site, we also assisted Granite and Tile Outlet with their Search Engine Optimization efforts.

Ridgeview Church

1call — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 21:57:40 +0000

Ridgeview is a non-denominational church in Rockwall, TX. 1 Call Service designed and implemented a Content Management System (CMS) to enable the church staff to maintain their own website. After completion of the project the church staff is able to save money by not having to contract web programmers to make changes and update the website.

In addition to the design, 1 Call Service also implemented a Search Engine Marketing campaign on behalf of Ridgeview Church with fantastic results. The vast majority of new attendees find the church through the major search engines. Ridgeview Church has experienced such great growth in part due to their excellent website, that they have had to move to two morning services on Sunday just to accommodate all the new members.
