Accessible Websites – Semantics, Hierarchy & The Reader

The average Joe doesn’t really think in terms of accessibility when it comes to the web and how a website might be read aloud by screen readers. The fact is, it’s important for your website to make sense to all people – even those with special needs. Continue reading “Accessible Websites – Semantics, Hierarchy & The Reader”

User Experience & Encouraging Return Visitation…

One of the main objectives of a web designer is to create a user experience that is not only seamless but holds a visitors attention and encourages return visitations. This is achieved by creating an efficient user platform that is easy to use, coherent and motivates readers to be more engaged. Continue reading “User Experience & Encouraging Return Visitation…”

Web Browser Testing For Clients

I’ve witnessed first-hand websites that look great in one web browser, and look like a train wreck in another. I often wonder if the owners of those websites know they have a major problem on hand, or if they just don’t care. Either way, let’s get those of you who aren’t in the know up to date to which browsers are being used out there and share how you can test to see if your website has any design styling flaws.

New Web Design Firm in Santa Fe

Yes, we are the new web design firm in Santa Fe. That doesn’t mean we aren’t familiar with what it takes to do business in a town that is saturated with web design competition. In fact, we feel like we have the upper hand. We’re cheaper, leaner and offer unique custom websites that are search engine friendly from the get-go. Plus, we enjoy interacting with our clients and making them very happy!

Affordable Santa Fe Web Design

Oh yeah, we’re affordable… Even in these hard economic times. We have low overhead and believe in sustainable practices. This means that we can charge less than the average web design firm. “How much less?” you ask. On average, we charge $10 (per hour) less than most web designers. And it won’t be one of those scenarios where you say, “Well, I guess we got what we paid for.” We want our clients to feel as though they not only got the most for their money but also enjoy the way their new website works, looks and feels.

Lean, Not So Mean Web Design Firm

Costs are kept relatively low at Jacobito Design. We follow “Green Protocols” that we’ve written into our business plan. These “Green Protocols” definitely help us save money by reducing facility energy costs, fleet costs and waste. Ultimately by keeping costs low and following green protocols, we feel that we are not only helping our bottom line but also helping the bottom line of our clients — not to mention our contribution to the wellbeing of the environment.

Search Engine Friendly, Custom Web Sites

Our previous blog post detailed search engine friendly websites. In that post, we wrote about underdeveloped code-hoarders that generally haven’t bothered to update their skills and evolve. We believe there is quite a bit of this that goes on in the Santa Fe web design community. Not every designer is this way, but there are quite a few. We pride ourselves on creating clean-coded, custom websites that are easily indexed by search engines.

So, even though Jacobito Design is new to Santa Fe, we feel like we have a structure that our clients will be happy with. It can also save them money before and after the web design process is complete. We invite you to see how we can best serve you and your web design needs.
