Hand-Coded Websites

Denver Web Success has the skills to hand-code your entire website using a combination of HTML/CSS, plus PHP scripting and MySQL database tables. In fact, the majority of the sites we have created for clients have been custom built in this way. There are some advantages to this approach, including:

  • Streamlined Code: Systems, such as WordPress, include a great deal of generic code in order to work. With a hand-coded website only the absolute necessary code is included, leading to a mean, lean site that will load extremely quickly, even on slower internet connections.

  • Better SEO: While a content management system may include some elements of search engine optimization (SEO), they are never as well optimized as a hand-coded website. If you are in a competitive online market a hand-coded website can be the difference between failure and success.

  • Customization: Although a CMS, like WordPress, has a huge variety of plugins to perform different functions, sometimes it can be impossible to find the exact plugin you need. While Denver Web Success can develop WordPress plugins, it is typically quicker and cheaper to code it into a custom website.

Web Scripting

Custom development is not limited to creating static websites. Denver Web Success development includes:

  • Scripting using server-side PHP to include dynamic page elements. There are many examples of how this can be used, including:

    • Separating out common elements, such as the header, so that it can be quickly changed across the entire website.
    • Consistent, scripted calls-to-action that can be quickly dropped into pages; changing based on the conversion targets for the page.
    • Dynamic snippets of information that automatically update, such as the number of years you’ve been in business, how many clients you have, or information such as the time, a countdown, the temperature, etc.

The list is limited only by your imagination. However, when combined with the MySQL database, the possibilities are enormous.

Web Database Development

PHP scripts can be utilized with the MySQL database to really enhance your website. Some examples include:

  • Building a table of testimonials so that a random testimonial can appear on each and every page.
  • Building a categorized portfolio photo gallery with full SEO titles, meta descriptions, and content for every photo, each of which has its own web page.
  • Incorporating an updating news section that you can keep up-to-date.
  • Maintaining and displaying your staff profiles and photos online. Perhaps even show a featured staff member on your home page.
  • Maintaining details of properties and vacant units, including photos.

Web Application Development

Denver Web Success also has extensive skills with Javascript and Ajax, which provides both client-side updates, plus the ability to update elements of a web page, with updates from the server, without the need to refresh the entire page. This technology can produce smoother transitions for web applications (maps, tabbed content, etc) or even be used to code entire web applications (forums, chats, games, etc).
