Okay, I just toured the new MacBook AIR and holy crap it would be amazing to add that machine to the Indiana Web Design assets. The thinest computer ever and yet it lacks nothing! New innovative wireless technology and amazing features adapted from the iTouch iPod. I never knew envy before MAC started creating such amazing web design, web development and universal use tools. If you have not watched the MacBook AIR video - you should watch it. As an indiana website design company, we made the switch to entirely mac about two years ago and have not regretted the decision in the least. We still keep a windows pc around for testing and helping clients troubleshoot issues (IE 6 & 7), but that is about its only purpose in life now. Our entire website design and website development process is completed on the mac platform and we have not been happier. The new MacBook Air appears to offer even greater solutions. So it may hit our shelf as soon as we can make it happen and begin creating McGlinchy Media & Design, LLC | Indiana Web Design on a MacBook AIR.

Indiana Web Design is proud to announce a new look and feel to our site, logo and corporate identity. Big changes are never an easy thing, as many small businesses in America know, such as adding a website to your company’s list of assets.

It also reassures existing clients that your company is flexible and can adapt to reach this generation as you have the last, yet still valuing those within prior generations. If your company does not currently have a website or your website design could use a little updating, contact Indiana Web Design. We also offer full packages with our website design and website development. You can update your entire company identity - both on the internet (through website design) and tangibly (business cards, letterhead, company envelopes, etc). We can help with the full package. Contact Indiana Web Design with your project today!

Our Indiana Web Design catch phrase is ’stand out.’ We believe that your presence on the internet should not appear out-dated, operate poorly or distract website users from experiencing the services and products your company offers. Your website design and website development should be attractive and inovative. It should grab website users attention from the start and lead them, step by intentional step, to the result well planned long before the website goes live. There are too many underdeveloped websites avialable on the internet. Website Designs that lack the proper research and therefore do not speak to the intended demographics or ilogical website development that results in a clunky, unsucessful website UI. It is important to know who you are trying to reach and to be intentional in attracting those website users.

Usability testing is highly important for Indiana Website Design and Indiana Web Development. In this article we will address the importance of Usability Testing to your website design and your website development.
Usability testing is an in-depth study on the functionality and ‘usability’ of a website. To define usability, we will describe it this way; before a Recreational Vehicle (RV - which there are many made in the greater Goshen, Indiana - Elkhart County area) is shipped off the manufacturing line, it undergoes a series of tests. Systems (mechanical, electrical, etc.) are operated and fully tested. Assembly is inspected and verifyed, functionality is a must with every unit shipped. A website is no different. Usability tests are a series of tests done to the website to ensure ease of use, navigation, e-commerce checkout (if applicable), etc.
If your website was developed without decent testing, you may want to consider a usability test and site assesment. There are a few Web Design Company’s in the Goshen, Indiana; Warsaw, Indiana; Elkhart, Indiana area that can assist with a website usability test. If you are interested in an Indiana Web Design company - McGlinchy Media & Design, LLC to assess your existing website, we will be glad to discuss further the benifits of these tests.

SEO is on the rise for Indiana web design. Many companies are realizing the value of ranking well with search engines. More competition from SEO companies means lower SEO pricing, resulting in better services for small business website design. SEO is very costly and quite time consuming and definitely specialized. More options does not nessicarily mean the same results. Some SEO companies still trust old methedoligy for higher ranking, and some of the older methods used for higher Search Engine Ranking will get a site banned now. SEO companies need to be on the forefront of all that is happening in the SEO world. Google is the top Search Engine. One report stated that their share of the Search Engine Market is up to 66% (on the rise) while Yahoo (20.9%) and MSN (just over 7%) declined in the month of December. So, it shows the high importance of playing by Google’s rules for ranking.
Indiana web design company - MM&D is glad to offer knowledgable staff to assist you with your company’s website design, development and SEO needs.

Well, as an Indiana Web Design company in Goshen, Indiana - we try to stay afloat on the happenings in the web design/web development world. Our development methods mainly focus around the major browsers (Firefox, Safari - oh yeah… and unfortunately, Internet Explorer). We have not in the past focused much on the smaller web browsers - but that may be changing. After reading an interview Jan Standal, director of the Opera product management and developer relations team, and Chris Mills, Opera’s developer relationship manager and we were quite impressed with the new ideas on the horizon for Opera. It apears that there are some great features in the works for the next release of the Opera website browser. We have taken the time to evaluate this browser in Beta form - we want to make sure that our clients have the best features and that their website design and website development is compatible in as many platforms as possible. With Opera on the forefront of mobile and gaming browser compatibility - being the browser of choice by Nintendo’s Wii system (as well as others) - it has caused us to make sure our sites are compatible. If you are unsure whether your website design/website development is cross-browser compatible - contact us and we will do a simple usability assesment on your existing website and can offer solutions and upgrades from Indiana Web Design.
