All clients are provided a 100% guarantee which is our pledge that at any point you are not happy with the work then all development on the site will stop and you will not be charged anything, however, we reserve the right to display the site as an example for other perspective clients. Once a site has been approved by the client (you) an invoice will be emailed; at that time we request that the invoice be paid within 30 days, failure to pay it by that time will require that the site be removed from the server until full payment has been received, and the possible incurrment of late fees (see client contract). If you have any questions on E. Curtis Design services, or our "guarantee" please feel free to contact us.

If you have a present site that is in need of updates, fixes, and/or a general face-lift, we offer a "Website Reworking" service. What we do is evaluate your current site with regard to what is effective, and what can be improved. We then discuss our findings with you and based upon the specific areas you are concerned about we will reshape your site into one that is effective both visually and in regard to textual layout; furthermore we will take the time to optimize your pages to achieve higher search engine queries and structure the page code to be current with the present web standard.

Content Management (CMS), Blogs, and Ecommerce Development
Content Management Systems are used to convey information to a visitor in an orderly and interactive fashion. CMS is used typically for integrating applications such as forums, blogs, directories, ecommerce, newsletter subscriptions, image galleries, member only areas, calendars, and visitor polls/quizzes. Ecommerce functionality can be used in conjunction with CMS or it can be employed as a stand-alone application (presently we only offer it in a CMS platform). We design ecommerce sites that link to paypal and/or which allow for full credit card processing. Note that a merchant account and a credit card authorization server (and a secure site folder "https" and SSL) are needed when taking credit cards directly online.
Flash Development
We have a large collection of customizable flash animations available, and we can design an animation tailored to your specific needs or edit a template you have purchased (price is based upon the aforementioned hourly rate). It is important to note that flash template's text and graphics are editable, but since each template is unique the layout can only accommodate as many "view changes/pages" as provided in its design. The structure and interactivity of a template is not editable in most cases. |
