The same is certainly true for businesses in the private sector. Social networking sites allow you to open the lines of communication with you clients, spread company news and promotional information, provide better customer service, monitor and manage your online reputation, and more.

Sneak Peek At The New Lower Trinity Groundwater Conservation District Website

Lower Trinity Groundwater Conservation District Web Site

The new web site for the Lower Trinity Groundwater Conservation District (LTGCD.org) is just about ready to launch. Bill Jacobs, the District’s General Manager, handed me the final documents to be added to the site this morning.

Here is a sneak peek at the photoshop mock up I designed for this web site.

I’ll be posting screen captures and links from the official site upon it’s debut next week.

Lower Trinity Groundwater Conservation District Awards Web Design Project To Apache Advertising and Design

By on October 11, 2008 in Business, Website Development with No Comments

In an early morning meeting at the office of Bill Jacobs, we finalized our plan for the creation of a new web site for the Lower Trinity Groundwater Conservation District.

Groundwater conservation districts have the power and duty to manage underground water as defined in chapter 36 of the Texas water code. A prime duty of the department is issuing the licences required for water well drilling and other related projects.

The main challenge with this web site project will be the organization of several documents for the user to download in PDF format. The interface needs to be simple to navigate so that their clients can obtain the proper document in the shortest amount of time and with fast page loads.

Since this project will not be graphically intense, I’m looking forward to this opportunity to stretch out, challenge myself, and focus on my CSS skills to provide them with a elegant web site design.

I’ll be posting the final result in the portfolio section soon in just a few weeks. Check back soon!

Element Fusion is Offering a Free Web Site For Oklahoma Based Non Profit Organizations

By on September 9, 2008 in Business, Website Development with 1 Comment

Element Fusion, one of Oklahoma’s fastest growing web services companies, is offering a free web site to one Oklahoma based non-profit organization.

If you work for or know of a deserving non-profit, you can nominate it for the donation. Any registered, non-profit organization with operations based in Oklahoma is eligible to receive the website donation.

After receiving permission from each finalist, Element Fusion will put the finalists and their stories up for a public vote on this website. The public vote will be weighed in along with input from Element Fusion’s selection panel in choosing the final winner.

The final web site will be valued at over $4000 and will certainly help one lucky non-profit organization and their local community. I am inspired by the contest that Element fusion is doing and I am strongly considering a similar give away in my own local community. Stay tuned for updates.
