Florenceroad – Wordpress Websites

Having worked on musician Juan Alban’s original site, with the release of his new EP, we were asked to refresh his site with the new graphics.  Because the site is built in WordPress the refresh took hours instead of days.

Features:

- Flickr Gallery
- SoundCloud Music Player
- Custom Slide Show on Homepage
- Mailchimp (email) capture
- Facebook Like Box and Share Button
- Gigspress

Cathy had a very clear direction for what she wanted on her website, and how she wanted it laid out.  As a result we were able to turn the site around in just a few days.  Featuring a full width banner, which Cathy can modify herself, social media plugins in the right hand nav, and a customisable homepage. The site is clean and stylish, and can be fully managed by Cathy.

Testimonial from Cathy:

“Thank you Dave for setting up my website so efficiently. I appreciate your fast turn-around, speedy replies, good value for money and friendly, helpful service. You have been a pleasure to work with.” – Cathy Prastides

Nicola Milan is a jazz musician from Perth, Western Australia.  She wanted a site that had a strong call to action, with key links in the banner, and a prominant email banner.  Aside from putting the website together we also did her visual identity and logo.  Classic, Parisian, Songstress.

Oh, and whilst Nicola thought she was a dummy when it came to websites…well she learnt how to manage hers in just an hour.

The Blue Networks team found me via a mutual client…we were talking nerdy stuff and thoroughly enjoying it. So when Blue needed a new website, one that was flexible, and could be updated themselves, they called on Florence Road.

We did some pretty technical stuff to this site. Hours and hours of mucking around with javascript forms for a service desk login, a custom plugin that pulls all their ebay listings into a page, and a Blue Zone page with widgets that contains all the latest and greatest from around the site.

But all this automation now means they can get on with fixing IT stuff.  I wonder if they can fix my home server….

Elwood Angling Club is a picturesque boat shed on the Elwood Foreshore.  But like any club, it’s not just about location, it’s the members and their history that makes it truly special.

Elwood Angling Club wanted something simple, because let’s face it they would rather be fishing than updating websites.  So to make life simple we put in a wordpress backend, gave them a fresh design, and taught one of their whipper snappers to update it.

The most enjoyable part of building this site, was sitting up in their hall, overlooking Elwood Beach, scanning in photo’s from the turn of the century.

It’s goose bumps stuff.

Transfit is a fitness business focused on people in a transitional space.  As this was a brand new business, part of my work with the boss Colin Perkovic was to help him clearly articulate his mission, vision, values, and core offering.  Using WordPress again, we built a website that reflects his brand, with the flexibility to grow as his business does.

Wize Therapy specialises in physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech pathology for children and adolescents in Perth, WA.  The team had an old website that was simply outdated.  Using WordPress we built a fresh new site for them, with feature banner panels, and of course the ability for them to update themselves.

Julius is a cool cat from the lovely beaches of WA.  With a website that he already liked, Julius approached us to build him something that you could update himself.  We installed Youtube plugins, flickr plugins and Gigspress, which means he can post content once and watch it fill up his site, saving him more than 30 hours a week*

*stats are not really accurate…but were used to exaggerate a point.

Jenny is a singer/songwriter originally from NSW and now in sunny Melbourne.  She rocks, and now so does her website. Using Flickr plugins, Gigpress for her gig listings, embedding youtube video’s with ease, and with a pop up music player Jenny is ready to take down the Australian Imposters…I mean Idols.

“Dave from Florence Road has done a terrific website for my music page. Dave was super efficient to work with. Not only did he complete my website in a few days, he was very generous with his time and skills as he trained me up so I could make my own updates to my website in the future. He’s a great communicator, easy to work with, and a very capable web designer. I’m stoked with the quality of my website, how affordable it has been, and how quickly he got things up and running. Thankyou Dave.“

Like most of my clients, the Export Solutions team had a website that was tired, and not representative of their business.  They had some fantastic marketing materials, which I was able to translate into a new website design, with some advanced functionality such as drag and drop post order, Flickr Galleries, Add to Calendar functionality and even some funky tabs. 

I’m also currently running a Google Adwords program for them bringing in additional visitors on a pay per click basis.

Business Edge Coaching is an SME Coaching Business. Daniel Bona the director was tired of his old, undynamic site and wanted something he could update himself.
