We
welcome website challenges as long as they benefit your business
in the long run. We view all problems as "opportunities
for solutions".
The
best word to explain what we did with this website is "RESCUE".
The Domain: http://alpinemickys.com
THE
PROCESS AND HOW WE WERE SUCCESSFUL
The
owners contacted us and said they were having problems with
their existing site. There were numerous problems. Sometimes
the site was down, sometimes it displayed as an adult site.
There was an inconsistent navigation system and each of the
pages contained one very large, slow loading, poor quality
(gif) image. The domain had been removed from their ownership
to that of the designer, who offered to sell it back for $500,
as he rescued it from someone who had hijacked it "somehow".
People rarely used the web site to find information or to
contact them.
Over
the course of several weeks we worked with the owners (whenever
they had a few minutes free time) to determine what they really
wanted out of the new site, what had been done (and not done)
in the past, what contracts still remained, and what they
wanted for future changes.
We then spent hours trying to contact the past designer, had
a dispute document created which was provided to the domain
name (Internic) controlling body. We had a legal document
sent to the past designer stating what was illegal and what
the consequences would be if the domain and materials were
not released.
While all of this was taking place, we began the creation
of a new site for the owners of Alpine Mickeys.
We were finally able to reinstate the domain back to the owner's
name, move the domain to a quality and cost effective hosting
service, and finally create a fun and informative web site.
It was a rewarding experience for us. We are very pleased
that we were able to "Rescue" the site for the owners
at http://alpinemickys.com !
