Small Business Sites

Onto Development offers a wide range of web services for small businesses.

GringosParadise.com sells real estate in Nayarit, Mexico.

Wordpress using WP-Property plugin with custom modifications.

SatelliteTvArizona.com installs, repairs, and supports satellite TV in Northern Arizona.

When Satellite TV Arizona came to us, they were over paying and not seeing results at all. They asked us to evaluate their website and see what we could do. A quick look over found that the website was plagued with garbage HTML commonly found when an unexperienced designer uses cheap software.

Onto Development's first objective was to rewrite the website to be W3 compliant. Secondly, we revised the design to have a more modern feel and lastly began the long endeavour of increasing traffic. We shifted from almost zero search engine presence and even less generated leads to placing in the top 3 for several targeted searches.

For example, Google search: Satellite TV installation Sedona AZ

PhoenixHookah.com rates and reviews hookah lounges in the Phoenix area.

We took a simple idea of a blog that reviewed local hookah venues and changed it into a lean search engine results driven web application. Strong use of jQuery, HTML5, CSS3, and Google Maps API.

Phoenix Hookah has been build from ground up with 100% custom coding and graphics design.

PhoenixGirsDress.com, resale girl's clothing.

This simple 1 page business landing page was derived from a postcard and car graphics designed to promote the business. As with many clients, Angels All Dressed Up's owner was a bit intimidated by the internet but knew that she should have a web presence for her brick & mortar. Onto Development handled every step including domain purchase, hosting, submission to Google Places and Yellow Pages, and of course building the web page itself.
