Web Design

Now let us talk about my favorite subject, web design! For some business owners and individuals, this phrase stimulates excitement, creativity, and global presence. For others, it triggers fear or memories of large expense checks for a website that never works right and doesn't seem to draw more clients.

Buss International offers web design solutions for a wide variety of businesses. Remember my slogan, Technology Must Complement You. If a web design does not reflect your business and products, it will not bring in more customers. Second, once you have a nice website, you have to market it and get it noticed. Buss International's full service includes the consultation, design, marketing, and maintanence of your website. I also encourage you to be involved in the process, so you end up with a website that you truly see as a part of your business.

Design Projects

LAPassenger.com - LA Passenger, a service for Southern California commuters, sends Metrolink train delay alerts right to passengers' cell phones. The site's goal is to quickly inform visitors about how the service works, and then capture their passenger profile and contact information. This information is then sent instantly to an online passenger database which categorizes each customer automatically.

BonnieQuinton.com - Bonnie Quinton, a Ventura County psycho-therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker needed an informative website for her Camarillo based practice. Using "Flash Animation" to symbolize transformation, this site attractively presents visitors with information about Bonnie's services.

HighStudio.net - Bringing fine art to historic downtown Moorpark is an exciting venture, but also quite time consuming to establish show schedules, enlist artists, and publicize events. High Studio wished to use the site to track the active show schedules. Buss International was hired to revamp the site design and market the studio via Google, Craigslist, and local Ventura County publications. With the site design and publicity handled, the client could focus on growing the studio and planning exhibits.

Kittycastle.net - Kitty Castle™ is a feline sanctuary and a playhouse designed to be crafted and decorated. Assembles in under 10 minutes and great for kids! This website combined the artistic talents of my client coupled with a functional e-commerce solution, high quality graphics, and visual slideshow.

RubyREALTY.com - RubyREALTY.com was created for Ruby González, a leading Realtor in Puerto Rico. The site was created in Spanish, and integrates a very powerful listing system allowing Ruby to create, edit, and maintain a professional looking listing portfolio on her own site, without paying large subscription fees to third-party realty services.

ALaurieStudio.com - Showcasing the art of Laurie Buss, ALaurieStudio.com was designed to allow my client to easily add/edit/delete art to the online gallery herself without having to learn web design, providing her better value. The site will also supplement her direct mail marketing campaign. The site uses AJAX programming language, the most recent trend in web sites including Google and Yahoo!.

WellWithinNutrition.com - WellWithinNutrition.com was created for my client, Cynthia Ray, founder of Well Within. Cynthia is a registered dietician, looking for an inviting website that informed her current and future clients about her services. Cynthia practices in Simi Valley, California.

CoombsPC.com - CoombsPC.com was created for Andy Coombs, an Intellectual Property attorney in Glendale, California. The site was created to provide useful information on intellectual property, trademark, and copywrite law, and to introduce site visitors to the Practice and their qualifications.

HiddenGlenHOA.com and WestparkCondominiums.com - both of these sites were built for HOA boards who were looking for a cost effective site to serve their communities. I've developed a low cost model of design for HOA sites, resulting in a professional and functional page, costing only a few hundred dollars. By using email distributions, online polls, and posting community documents online, these homeowners associations saved money on postage and increased community awareness.

OurYosemiteCabin.com - OurYosemiteCabin.com was designed to showcase the client's wonderful vacation rental inside the Yosemite National Park. With photographs, guest information, floorplan, and live weather information, the site serves as an important reference for any guests visiting the cabin. The site was built to supplement the clients' weekly classified advertisement in the Acorn newspaper.

TechSenior.com - TechSenior.com is a site I designed to focus on my Senior technology assistance services that I provide when I am not busy designing websites.

MoorparkEducationFoundation.org - Designed for the non-profit Moorpark Education Foundation, the site educates visitors about MEF's fundraising efforts to benefit Moorpark, California schools. The site provides direct donations via credit card, online submission of teacher grant applications, and online RSVP's to their annual fundraiser.
