			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PowerBand Graphics was contracted to create a custom website design for Lincoln Criminal Defense Attorney Tregg Lunn. The site needed to be easy to navigate, quick loading and professional looking. This site was built with static XHTML and CSS. Content management systems are great but not always necessary. They can some times add a layer of complexity and cost that isn&#8217;t ideal. PowerBand Graphics worked with the Tregg Lunn to create a solution that met their needs but was an excellent value to them. The functioning site can be viewed at<a href="http://www.tregglunnlaw.com/" target="_blank"> www.tregglunnlaw.com</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Web sites for small businesses can be a daunting but crucial endeavor. A well built, easily navigable site can make all the difference in the world when it comes to converting a sale. Having a consistently branded website doesn’t have to be expensive. Web design needs vary as greatly as the services of companies do, PowerBand Graphics will work with you to make sure you get the right sized site you need and will never push you into services you don’t need.</p>
<p>Here are some things we&#8217;ll help you consider when it comes to building a website:</p>
<h4>Search Engine Leveraging and Marketing</h4>
<p>Search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing are the lifeblood to your online presence. You want to make sure that your website is built correctly in a way that is visible for search engines to index. Relevant, up to date content is a major key to this. You&#8217;ll also want to make sure your business appears in local search results. Whether it&#8217;s a simple informational website or a larger corporate setup utilizing blogs and databases it&#8217;s all about being found.<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-232" title="search" src="http://www.powerbandgraphics.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/search.jpg" alt="search" width="520" height="370" /></p>
<h4>Content Management Systems (CMS)</h4>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve decided you want a new or redesigned website you can decide if a content management system is right for you. Not everyone needs one of these and they can add a layer of cost and complexity to your site. Are you often making changes to your website? Does your website contain a lot of pages? Have you had to pay someone to make simple changes to your site? If you answered yes to any of those questions then a content management system might be right for you. We offer multiple user-friendly options that we can set you up with an option that is right for you.</p>
<h4>Web Hosting, Domain Purchasing</h4>
<p>Technical stuff like figuring out the best web hosting provider and how to purchase a domain can be a bit daunting. PowerBand Graphics can work with your current web host  to  update your site. Alternatively we also offer full service hosting and domain registration capabilities. We are here to take the headache out of web site creation.</p>
<h4>Social Media Integration</h4>
<p>Blogs, Facebook, Twitter, Digg, LinkedIn, Reddit and MySpace. You may have heard of some of these but do you know what each one does? Is it worth the hassle of working with these social media outlets? PowerBand Graphics can help you weigh the pros and cons of utilizing social media. It&#8217;s not about creating another outlet to shout deals to your customers, it&#8217;s about connecting with them and giving your customers another way to find out more about you to communicate directly with your business. We&#8217;ll help you integrate those services into your existing site or build them into a new one.<br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-236" title="social" src="http://www.powerbandgraphics.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/social1.jpg" alt="social" width="520" height="115" /></p>
<h4>E-Commerce</h4>
<p>Selling a product or some merchandise to boost your brand? We&#8217;ll help make the shopping experience as painless as possible. A complicated and painful online shopping experience can sour a customer to your brand for years. Make online shopping with your company enjoyable, easy and encouraging for your customers to come back.</p>
<p>From simple sites without a lot of bells and whistles to custom designs and easy-to-use content management systems, we can find the right fit for you. PowerBand Graphics can also help you use social networks to help leverage your online presence. Not web savvy? No problem, we can work with your current hosting providers or even handle the hosting for you.  Feel free to contact us so we can help determine the best options for you.</p>
