About...

Suzette and Inspired Web Presence

I've been designing and building websites for small and medium businesses for about eight years now. In the beginning, some excellent teaching on the basics got me started, and then, once I outgrew the teacher, I became self-taught... learning what I needed to know, as I went along. Now, I have a steady stream of websites coming in, with no advertising or promotion of any kind... all word of mouth.

I hadn't even developed a site for my own business until now. I didn't need the leads, as I've been kept busy enough with referrals.

I am still very busy with referrals, but I decided to put up a quick site to give my new clients an example of my work. Plus, when it's done, it will save me time by providing answers to commonly-asked questions, and resources they can easily download themselves.

Also, it helps my new clients get to know their new webmaster!

The Creative Part - 'Inspired'

I really enjoy the creative aspect of website design, having been a graphic artist in the past, and loving to draw and paint since I could hold a pencil and a brush!

Other than photos or graphics that my clients provide, I create all my own graphics. I love 'PhotoShop' and 'Flash'!

My favourite part of the creative process, for me, is receiving inspiration for a new design. That inspiration can come from anywhere...

	from something the client tells me about himself/herself or his/her business, or
	their logo, or
	their existing marketing materials, or
	from analyzing their competition, or
	from keyword research, or
	...wherever!

Some people may not 'get' this, but often for me, it's like the project 'tells me' what it wants to look like. I call that... inspiration.

And, that's why I called my business 'Inspired' Web Presence.

The Construction Part

The building end of website development gives me a great sense of accomplishment.... I take pride in each and every project, building each site with care as if it were my own.

'Dreamweaver' and I are very close buddies! And, I have a few other good 'buds' (programs) on my team, too.

And so, between the creative end of the design process, and the sense of accomplishment from the construction end... it's a win-win.

Win-Win-Win!

And then, it becomes a win-win...win, when my clients are thrilled with their custom websites and their top ten search engine ratings, not to mention the personal attention and customer service they receive!!

Contact me today and let's get your new website started.

Onward and upward!
This year, I am taking my business in a new direction, so I've designed, and am in the process of developing, a new website that will reflect the expansion of my services to include Internet marketing, as well as, web hosting and domain registration.

The new site will replace this one. So, one day very soon, you'll log on to my site, and it will look very different!

I am particularly excited about the Internet marketing aspect. I'm moving in the direction of Internet marketing consulting, specializing in social media, which is huge nowadays! Businesses can literally cut their advertising budgets in half while increasing their sales, if they find someone to help them take advantage of the incredible marketing opportunities available online, such as social media. I intend to be one of those 'someones'. =o)

I'll tell you all about it on the new site, so check back soon to get the scoop. ;o)

In the meantime, let's discuss your website project. You can tell me what you have in mind, and I can tell you what I can help you accomplish... both short term - with the skills I have now, and long term - with the expansion of services I will be launching very soon.

Give me a call. We'll explore the possibilities!
