Let Us Help You Develop or Enhance Your Web Identity

Spinnaker offers a variety of custom design and web development services. Below you will also find a list of our technical services and skills. Probably the best way to see what we can do though, is to look at our portfolio of maiden voyages.

Custom Design Services
Since every project we develop is a custom project, we start by asking you to complete our Project Profiler. This helps us understand the needs and specifications of the project and is a very important first step in the planning process.

After reviewing the completed project profiler and conducting a communications audit of marketing peices, publications and other tools for communication, our designers and developers work their magic to develop a site that meets your communication and business goals and fits your image and organizational culture.

Web Development Services
Some of our most popular services are content management, ecommerce development and Web application development.

We enjoy empowering our clients to maintain and update the content of their Web site. With the Plone content management system, you do not need to purchase expensive software packages nor do you need to have any prior knowledge of HTML.

We set up your site and then train you to use our system to make all of the updates yourself. You can update the site any time day or night from almost any computer with Internet access. With our intuitive system, most of our clients have the basics mastered in less than 30 minutes.

We utilize Plone and other tools to help automate and streamline updating parts of your site, such as automatically removing events after the date of the event, managing banner ads and sending an enewsletter.

We also help organizations collect and manage data through their Web site. We can help increase the efficiency of your organization by reducing redundant data entry or by routing web-based sales or service requests to the appropriate person based upon the customer's zip code.
