Internet Success
Website Design Portfolio
The Website Designer for Northwest Small Businesses
Internet Success works with a small group of local clients. Their needs vary from entire website design and maintenance, blogs, newsletters, and social networking to do-it-yourself website designer tools from hosting companies that the client can edit and update themselves.
Social Networking and blogging has become an important business tool to enhance your internet presence. We have set up business blogs for many of our clients using wordpress, wordpress themes and plugins. Blogs are an excellent way to add fresh content to your website. Facebook, Twitter, and electronic Newsletters have also benefited our clients.
In addition to designing and maintaining our client's websites and blogs, I make myself available to teach my clients to make the best use of internet, blogs, and social networking techniques. I invite you to review my portfolio.
BoiseOasisPartyGardens.com
Boise Idaho Private Garden Wedding & Party Event Site -Oasis Paradise Gardens needed a website as soon as possible to inform Boise area residents about their new private gardens ready for people to begin booking their wedding & reception, and garden party reservations. The design is engineered using HTML5 and CSS3, javascript and jquery enhanced integration, featuring a header image slider, a photo gallery, contact form, a tabbed pane content section, and accordian content section.
Internet Success also created social networking accounts: Facebook page, YouTube channel, Twitter account, and Pinterest account.
EvolutionLandscapeandNursery.com
Boise Idaho landscape contractor - Evolution Landscape and Nursery requested a website that would show off their beautiful landscape designs and introduce their business to commercial and residential clients in Idaho and Utah. Their website design includes an image slider on the home page and lightbox photo galleries.
Internet Success also created a wordpress blog for Evolution Landscape and Nursery. We chose a blog design that was fun, representing the outdoors. I tutored my client to teach her the basics of blogging.

ForensicEngineerExpert.pro
Forensic Engineer and Expert Witness Adam Aleksander wanted a website that he could edit himself, once I designed and got the website online. We added several photo galleries that include photos of his work as a forensic engineer, focusing on investigative, consulting, preventative and safety engineering services.
Idaho-InsuranceAgency.com
Charlotte Hildebrandt, a Boise, Idaho health insurance agent with Idaho Insurance Agency LLC, commissioned Internet Success to redesign her website. The website includes a horizontal image slider on the front page. Each image in the slider is actually an additional form of navigation linking to a page on their website. The website includes an online form for free health insurance quotes for Idaho individual and group insurance. We have optimized their website for SEO, search engine optimization.
We also created a wordpress blog for news about Idaho health insurance, Idaho Medicare information and other news to keep her clients informed.

IPEAonline.org
IPEA - Idaho Public Employees Association wanted to recreate their website, but needed to be able to edit and make changes to the content themselves. So we created their website using a website builder tool from their new hosting company. We added some of our own scripts and code, but the majority of the content is created using the tool so the client can edit and update as often as needed. I am available to update more technical code, such as the online forms.
We also created a wordpress blog. IPEA has been very active using their blog to connect with their members.

DogBlog.Inet-Success.com
DogBlog: A Dog's Eye View. This was my first attempt at using a wordpress blog. Creating a blog for dogs and their friends and families in the northwest has proved to be a very valuable experience. In addition to learning the tips and tricks of creating blogs, I have also learned a great deal about networking with others on social networking. Twitter has become a great resource.
A work in progress is our website for the dog lover - The BestDogBlog.com featuring our dog, Maggie. We encourage all to join us in making the world a better place for dogs and other animals. The feed from our blog is embedded on the website.

FixitWagon.Inet-Success.com
The Fix-It Wagon | Texas Handyman, Home Repair, Improvement & Remodeling in Montgomery County Area. This website utilizes cascading style sheets and a menu in the left side bar that is actually a list using what is called an uberlink. I created the Handyman logo for my friend, Jerry, by purchasing an illustrated image of a man with tools, changed his hair color and placing him in this circle for the logo. We used this same logo to create business cards and a magnetic car door sign.
Boise-Massage4Health.com
This design used cascading style sheets, an interesting header and a swap image rollover effect within the content on the front page, both created in Adobe Fireworks. Additional content was found by searching article websites to gather relevant professional information about massage techniques. Images were located and purchased from stock photo websites. This client has closed her website, she has chosen a new career path.
AWstudio1.com
A graphic designer wanted to create her own design, but wasn't familiar with creating a website. She hired me to place her design into code. In website design it is important to have text in your content, not just graphics. This helps with search engine indexing. We also created an online form.
Intermountain Building Maintenance
This design focuses on the beauty of Idaho - the banner graphics merged together include photos of the Sawtooth Mountains, the Boise River, the City of Boise and the foothills. In addition to content regarding commercial carpet cleaning and slip resistant floor treatment, we point to his affiliate website, Diamond Concrete Polishing, with content, hyperlinks, and flash presentations.
Diamond Concrete Polishing
Diamond Concrete Polishing decided on a fresh look. So we improved his internet presence by changing from a website design that utilized a website builder tool from the hosting company to a website designed by Internet Success utilizing the professional website designer software, Dreamweaver. We added an image slider script on the front page and a visual slideshow for the photo galleries.
Diamond Concrete Polishing is using Twitter. Follow IShineConcrete on Twitter.
Idaho-VacationCabins.com
Idaho-VacationCabins.com is a website designed for a vacation cabin rental by owner. They wanted something to assist in advertising their beautiful vacation cabin, but wanted to be able to keep an up-to-date calendar themselves. This cabin is located in scenic New Meadows, Idaho near Brundage Ski Resort and McCall.
We utilized a template based design from Network Solutions and we also utilized html code and scripts to enhance the site. The graphic in the top left corner is something I created using Photoshop and Fireworks. The front page has a javascript running for the picture in the frame, rotating pictures fade in and out. Another fun feature is the photo gallery of Scenic Idaho which is a flash flip book.
In order to properly market the site I encouraged adding relevant content, so there are pages about the local community resources and local activity resources. Search engine submittal is key along with meta tags (title, description, and key words). The calendar feature is a free google calendar, which I set up for my client and used an iframe to place it within the page. My client can easily make changes to the calendar at google, without touching the website and the changes show up on his site.
We recently added a social network feature, Twitter. Follow Idaho-VacationCabins on Twitter.
Consultants in Epilepsy and Neurology, PLLC
Using a clean simple design with a rollover java script menu, this site was "just what the doctor ordered". I added the eeg line to the banner and a closing graphic line. The design includes the jagged edge of the Sawtooth Mountains in the top banner. The Sawtooth Mountain picture was one that I had in my collection from a visit to Stanley, Idaho. I merged a few pictures together to get the look I wanted.
Dr. Wechsler is a busy neurologist, who did not have time to think about putting together materials for his website. His domain was in use for his email, but the website was a low priority. I spoke briefly with him about his needs and added some content from resources I had on hand. This is an example of a need for a website, but no time to produce the content. We can still get the site up and running, giving the client time to decide on content that is not critical.
tres bonne cuisine
When Barbara Haines changed their cafe menu to include theme dinners three nights a week. Her customers started to ask "how will we know which country you are featuring next week?" Barbara had my business card, so she gave me a call. Her need was a website that I would design, but she could update weekly on her own. I did some research and tested out an online product from Network Solutions. It utilized an online template. Both my client and I can access and edit her website online. We have included information about tres bonne cuisine, a photo gallery, map, menus, and their annual event - Oktoberfest, which includes links to YouTube.
You can follow Barbara on Twitter as she features her new beers, wine, and other goodies from Europe.
Sandra L. Clapp & Associates
The original header was a merged photoshop image of Boise and Eagle sites. With a move to a new location, Sandra L. Clapp & Associates chose a new look for their website. This website includes drop down menus utilizing java script, cascading style sheets, and a javascript on the front page creating random images each time the page is refreshed. Following their move to a new office, we redesigned the website to fit the image of their business cards and added a FLASH slide show.
Attorney Sandra Clapp keeps in touch with me to maintain her website. She updates law articles and new estate planning and tax information. Because I choose to keep my list of clients to a minimum I am able to give my clients very quick turnaround when they need updates.
Briggs Engineering, Inc.
Briggs Engineering, Inc. website includes drop down menus, cascading style sheets, online forms which utilize ssl and a database.
Vibra-Pro Company, Inc.
It was time to update the look for Vibra-Pro. The new Vibra-Pro website utilizes cascading style sheets and photo galleries.
Vibra-Pro Company designs and manufactures vibrating equipment and applies technology for the Foundry, Forest Products, Food Processing, and Chemical Industry.
We have worked closely with this busy engineer to finish up his text and design. In addition, we are assisting him in promoting his web site by adding meta tags and listing his URL with search engines and directories.
