So, you know what? It’s nice to get recognized!

We’ve just received notice that WeLoveWP has accepted our submission to their site dedicated to showcasing WordPress powered sites. Only about 10% of submissions are considered, and we’re proud to inform you that our client Coastal REO Solutions has their site prominently featured as one of the “Corporate” sites on the ballot.

If you’re thinking of re-working your own web presence, or need to start from scratch, take a moment to pursue all of the fantastic sites featured on the site. WordPress is quickly becoming the online solution for many of our clients, and you’ll see why. Having a custom WordPress site will put you in control of your brand.

Now, more than ever, small-to-medium sized businesses need to grow their exposure. But most businesses of this size don’t have the budget that bigger corporations do. This makes making large media buys difficult, if not impossible for most business owners. Inkhaus offers solutions through dynamic online campaigns designed especially for your business ~ once we establish your presence on the web, new avenues of communication are open to new prospective clients. You’ll be able to track your growth more efficiently, benefiting your bottom line accordingly.

Inkhaus Creative is a boutique agency. What does this mean? Above all, it means that when we take on a client, we dedicate ourselves very exclusively to that client. We feel that effective marketing means understanding your company’s needs thoroughly. We are able to achieve this through this exclusive focus on your business. Working with the Inkhaus team means more than “having a website”. It means having a customized marketing department who works to help you reach and surpass your goals.

In addition to designing & maintaining a basic web site, Inkhaus is able to offer several other invaluable services that are guaranteed to boost your exposure & grow your business. Services that include:

• Inventory Management Software & eCommerce
• SEO & professional SEO copywriting that ranks your site higher on Google searches
• Monthly & weekly Blog posts that inform, educate & draw new prospective clients

If you feel that your business is chugging along instead of racing forward, contact us to find out just what a customized marketing department can do for you. We understand that keeping up with the day-to-day reality of any business is a full-time job for anyone. Making the “big push” on marketing & promotion is our day-to-day reality. Let our team become yours.

The previous South of the Border website was in need of a dire face lift. Inkhaus tried its own hand at design kitsch, playing off of the famous South of the Border billboards that line I-95. The move to a unique web address and the development of a custom WordPress theme was the right choice.For the client, this allows for greater control and usability. Our design highlights the festive theme of the famous rest stop. This gives visitors to the site a sense of the vibe of the venue ~ colorful, fun & hospitable to all.

Be sure to check out the custom SOTB blog that we created. Share a comment on your enjoyable memories of Pedro & South of the Border. Next time you’re visiting the Carolina coast, stop by the wesbite first to see happening. We promise your whole family will love a day at the Border!

One of the biggest challenges in developing an effective web presence for any kind of business is in streamlining the way we update & maintain the site. Businesses evolve, and marketing strategies must also grow to meet the demands of a changing market, fickle customers and new technologies.

Clients come to us because we operate as if we were their own personal in-house design dept. You call us ~ we answer. Your business is changing, and your website needs to reflect that ~ not only once per quarter, but weekly – sometimes even daily. Take a look at the recently upgraded  Sago Plantation site to see an example of how we’re putting the power back into our clients’ hands. Utilizing a CMS (Content Management System) engine powered by WordPress, we’ve set up a customized site that clients can update at will, easily, with no fancy coding knowledge required. If you can use a word processor like Microsoft Word, you can use WordPress!

This client is a Real Estate Developer, and as such, wanted to do more than simply list which properties were for sale, whom to contact, etc. This is a rapidly changing market, and the better we can inform our customers, the more likely they are to buy with confidence. Powering our clients’ sites with CMS technology allows them to attract qualified buyers with greater frequency, driving sales & increasing revenue.

A final point regarding the WordPress engine: we’re able to offer clients access to their website stats in a very visual, easy-to-read format. This improves accountability ~ both in our efficacy as web designers/marketing consultants, as well as for our client’s ability to track what kind of potential customers are visiting their site. This is powerful software that is making a difference in the bottom line for our clients’ businesses.

Are you tired of the time it takes and having to contact your web developer for updates? Are you tired of having to pay for your website updates? Contact us to see how we can help with a CMS  solution giving you freedom and real time content publishing.
