(INACTIVE) Kilbourne's First National Real Estate is located in Urunga, NSW. This recent rebuild replaces a SQL database site written in 2004 (which replaced a static html site built in 2001). The SQL application was a custom application and we were having trouble getting support from the original programmer. The new site allows us to control all aspects of the site and has many new functions both for the estate agent and the site user. These features are described on this page for estate agents. Please contact us on 02 6699 3800 for a demo of the back end of this web site.

(INACTIVE) Dave Skelton approached Dynamic Web Solutions for a placeholder page. He intends to add content to his site in the coming months. Making a placeholder page gives us the opportunity to start marketing a site's address before all the content arrives. Usually we ask the owner for 3 - 5 paragraphs of text so search engines will have something to go on (Dave's site is not an example of that). The other opportunity a placeholder page offers is email addresses. We have to register a domain name and set up hosting, and therefore the customer can specify what email addresses they want with their domain. These can then be added to business cards.

The Diplomacy Training Program is a not-for-profit agency based at NSW University Faculty of Law. The program aims to train people in human rights, diplomacy and good governance. One of the design criteria for this site is that it should load fast as many of the users are in countries where modem connections are the most prevalent form of access to the Internet. Like all our sites, this site is valid to the W3 standard, and is designed to minimise the load of graphics (photos & pictures). The site will be maintained but University volunteers. It has a three column layout where the centre column is designed to constrain the body text to 8 to 10 words (for ease of reading) and the right hand column is designed to allow for regular news updates and the occasional picture.

Clout & Associates are Australian accountants specialising in business recovery and insolvency services. This is the second version of their website. It has a plain and clean presentation which is often requested by professionals such as lawyers and accountants.
Again, the site follows a three column layout. The purpose of this is to constrain text in a smaller centre column so each line length is 8-10 words making your eye return easily to the beginning of each line.

F1 Kart Hire is a outdoor go-cart venue. Centrally located in Coffs Harbour, the raceway does good business with schools and during holiday times. The colours and layout for this web site are lifted directly from the business's DL flier. In general we do not supplant existing design and logos with new ideas and thus risk diluting what recognition there may already be in a customers brand.

Sue and Iain, the new licensees of the Coffs Harbour War Memorial Olympic Pool, have big plans. Many physical changes are under way on site at the pool compound. Importantly, solar heating for the pool is being installed. A small cafe is planned. A fitness area is being developed and many other enhancements to the grounds. This new web site details all the activities available for each of the pool's user groups. Hours, schedules and fees are published.

Sundowner Lodge Guesthouse of Venus Bay, Victoria approached DWS to make a web site to the same layout as Tudor House, Glen Innes, Grafton. We changed the colour scheme to teal to recall the sea side location of Sundowner Lodge. Owner Karen Wlas, sent us fantastic panorama photography for the banner areas of her site. Photography is so important to the final look of a web site. People need to be able to put themselves in the picture and/or get a real good look at what they are buying. Design and photography however are only the beginning of a successful web site - so much today depends on search engines, and to get good rankings a web site needs excellent inbound links.

Artmarte is a complete e-commerce web site. Owner Cindy Scholten has been an Ebay power seller and now wants her auctions and Ebay listings to back into her own web site. Cindy gave use all the categories to use for the left her navigation. We asked her for product details and photography so we could set up the first 50 products in her store. Cindy will now add additional products in her web site's "back office" as they come to hand. The Artmarte site allows the owner to add and remove product, create promotional packs of product, feature items on the homepage, change where links appear on the site, change any or all of the text throughout her site... in short the software is a complete solutions for retailers.
