Rerun Productions Redesign

CDS — Thu, 11 Aug 2011 05:55:01 +0000

We just completed a revamp and upgrade of Rerun Productions, one of our very first clients. We’ve worked with Rerun for years and just adore their whole idea of functional art made from recycled items. Anyway, we upgraded their previous flash site to a simpler Wordpress site with more emphasis on search engine optimization, networking and traffic generation. This new site is also a complete CMS with video integration, Ajax features, automatic photo resizing, lightbox popup, built-in “simple forms”, and more. The idea was to create something minimal, simple, user-friendly that just shows the artwork, plain and simple. I’m a huge fan of the grid/masonry layout and was very excited to create this automatic-resizing masonry site. We’ll eventually be developing an integrated Wordpress online store, too.

Take a look at www.rerunproductions.com, and feel free to tell the folks at Rerun how much you love their creations via the comment forms!

Latest Project: The Design Gene revamp

CDS — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 06:15:45 +0000

The Design Gene needed a revamp to bring uniformity to the gallery, showcase, and blog sections. We developed this WordPress ”Module Theme” and validated the CSS/XHTML. I’m haven’t decied yet, but I may offer this theme for sale on www.themeforest.net (I own The Design Gene, so I can sell it ).

Well, this isn’t really breaking news since we’ve been doing them for some time now. But I just realized we never announced it anywhere. We’re now offering custom WordPress Blogs and CMS’s. We’re offering two services: 1) Custom WordPress application from scratch, and 2) Customization of your chosen theme (from just about any source, including www.themeforest.net, www.woothemes.com, and www.elegantthemes.com).

Custom Blog Overview:

The popularity of blogs is a relatively new thing in the world wide web. Over the past few years, blogs have grown in functionality and usefullness, to the vital role they play in search engine recognition and social networking today. Corvus Design Studio offers customized WordPress blogs and content management systems to bring your site into the world of Web 2.0!

WordPress offers highly functional and flexible blog systems that can be transformed into complete websites, content managment systems, and even e-commerce applications. WordPress blogs are very useful to network, bring traffic to your site, create a repore and communication with your viewers, and build backlinks to your site.

WordPress blogs and applications can be used to augment an existing CSS website, or comprise the entirety of your website.

Why would you want a blog? Invaluable SEO Benefits

Not only are blogs made for ease of information sharing, but they are extremely effective organic search engine marketing tools. Blogs are ranked and indexed by Google quickly, and accessed by networks of bloggers where a standard CSS website would not be found. WordPress blogs inherently use several key search engine optimization methods, including tags, image descriptions, priority HTML tags, and static page names. They have built-in seo features, and the more you use your blog, the more effective these features are. The SEO and networking benefits of a Blog are invaluable in today’s Web 2.0.
