Client Site Launch: Keep It In Keller

This week we launched the new Keep It In Keller website for the City of Keller’s Economic Development Department. You can now visit the new website at www.keepitinkeller.com.

Keep It In Keller houses listings for all of the city’s restaurants, retailers, businesses, and service providers.  You can also learn more about the city’s Economic Development initiatives as well as the Keller community.

The city first approached us in early 2016 in preparation for their new fiscal year budget.  Part of that budget was earmarked for the new website.  We were so excited to submit a proposal and be able to showcase our work to the city we call home. Our proposal was selected and we got started on the project. After months of hard work, we have finally launched the website and everyone loves it!

Which content management system is right for your website?

 

Finding the right content management system, otherwise known as the CMS, for your website is one of the most important steps of the website design process.

There are multiple content management systems on the market today that you can utilize for your website.  This article will review each of them so that you can select the best one for your website.

WordPress

This is the most popular and best content management system on the market today.  Wordpress provides a system that allows for theme-based (template) or custom designed websites.  Wordpress has excellent search engine benefits through the use of plugins and custom code.  The system also has multiple plugins that allow for easy E-Commerce management.

This system is perfect for: any business.

Built-Out Solutions: Squarespace, Wix & Weebly

There are multiple systems that only require little coding to build a full website.  Squarespace, Wix, and Weebly are the three most popular of these platforms.  They all provide responsive, modern, and search engine savvy templates to base your website off of.  Squarespace takes it a few steps further with their integrated E-Commerce and Product management capabilities.

These systems are perfect for: small businesses, small retail stores, small online stores, and startup businesses.

Joomla!

This is an older content management system.  It is very popular with intense UI/UX website development, but other than that it is not recommended for new website designs.  Wordpress is a much more powerful option compared to Joomla!.

Client Site Launch: Lucy’s Lot

We at Think Cre8tive are proud to announce that we have launched another client website: Lucy’s Lot! You can now find Lucy’s Lot online by visiting their website: LucysLot.com.

Lucy’s Lot is a restaurant in Grapevine, Texas that serves an array of American food. From Fried Macaroni & Cheese Balls, to the Juicy Lucy Burger, to the daily Happy Hour specials, Lucy’s Lot has exactly what you’re craving!

The owner of Lucy’s Lot approached us when they first opened the restaurant about creating the website. She wanted the website to accurately reflect the atmosphere and “funky” character of the restaurant. She also wanted it to be easy to use so that future updates could be easily made. Our creative design team was able to satisfy all of those requirements by building a custom website on the WordPress platform.  Wordpress not only make her website easy to maintain, but it also provided a platform that yields a design that fits the style of the restaurant. The design required high-resolution photography so our media team spent the day at Lucy’s Lot and captured the pictures you see on the site. Wow, they turned out good!
