Web Design
DataPerk takes a holistic approach to web design. With an in-house design and development department, DataPerk can build your website or web application from the ground up, code sites from an existing design, or perform modifications / maintenance to your existing web site.
DataPerk takes pride in the quality of our standards-based, forward looking approach to web design and development. With an emphasis on user experience and code quality, DataPerk takes into account usability, accessibility (both to disabled users and alternative browsing devices such as mobile phones), and search engine optimization (SEO).

Free Meeting Planner
Dan Fletcher runs a printing business in Maryland. He had a great idea to integrate planning a meeting and printing the materials for the meeting into one easy to use site. Dan contacted us to create Free Meeting Planner to fulfill those goals.
We started by creating site wireframes that explored a multi-step signup process followed by a standard online store. The person planning the event goes through the process of entering information about the event, which then generates a page on Free Meeting Planner to give out to attendees to RSVP. Dan can then easily work with the event planner to get tags, envelopes, and more printed. It was exactly what Dan was looking for.
We also developed an administration utility that gives Dan full access to editing information about the various events, products, and users.

Golden Rule BBQ
In early 2008, Golden Rule approached us about redesigning the Golden Rule BBQ web site. We saw the potential to leverage the site as a great customer interaction tool. To enhance the user interaction, we identified key features that the typical site user would be interested in and promoted those features to prominent positions. First, put the location search on the home page and on the top of every page to make it easy for a customer to find a near-by location. We also felt it was important to put valuable features such as coupons and news about new locations and promotions right on the home page.
On the back end, we wrote custom pages to help Golden Rule easily manage many aspects of their site, including news, locations, and coupons. We also integrated the Open Source photo gallery, Plogger, to allow Golden Rule a flexible means of posting news content that integrates with the existing news management.

Read the Bible with Us
Ron Gannett approached DataPerk with a novel idea: Help people read the Bible via an online, social experience. Given the unique needs of the site, DataPerk felt a custom backend to manage weekly Bible passages, blogs, and comments would best benefit a site of this nature. Over three months, DataPerk worked with Ron to develop the flow of the site from concept to reality.

Seafood for the Future
Science Creative approached DataPerk to turn the coded Seafood for the Future design into a functional WordPress site. The design included sidebars with content that was too advanced for the client to manage by hand. DataPerk was able to use a combination of WordPress' custom fields and pages to enable the Seafood for the Future webmasters to create these advanced sidebars in a manageable way that doesn't require constant interaction with a designer or developer.

Milo's Famous Tea
Milo's Famous Tea, a long-standing DataPerk client, worked with Big Communications and DataPerk to deliver a new site for 2010. After working with Big to produce a beautiful look-and-feel, DataPerk coded the design templates and worked directly with Milo's to finalize the site in the development process.
DataPerk was able to create the store locator feature by integrating with FastRep, our CRM solution. As part of the process, DataPerk also rewrote all of Milo's data management software in PHP to aid in the transition from the aging IIS server to the more powerful Apache server we use for all of our new sites.

Testimonial
DataPerk "gets it" when it comes to serving the customer. When you have an immediate need, what's more frustrating than getting stuck in an automated voicemail loop?! These folks are current with their technological capacities, but they are "old school" when it comes to customer contact. When you call them, you actually get a live person on the phone to promptly help you. Our company is on a progressive path, and we require like-minded vendors; we get that with DataPerk. They will tailor programs to help your business where you are and where you're going.
