Simple content management system

Your website can be your company's most valuable and powerful marketing asset, but only when the content is accurate and current. Using a Content Management System, like Joomla, the once daunting task of maintaining content on your company's website is made simple. Cost effective and easy to use, CMS allows you to keep your content fresh and aimed at your target initiatives.

Control your website's content from a central location. Deploy new information easily and accurately from a web-based interface without technical knowledge of HTML or other coding.

Website design is a careful balance between aesthetics and usability. It has to look nice, but it also has to be intuitive for your visitors. If they cannot find what they are looking for, they will leave. Live Oak builds web sites that are usable, reliable, secure, and pleasing to the eye.

Whether you can define your website goals or not, you have them. If you want to sell a product online, have visitors complete a contact form or simply provide your business hours, we help you with that process.

Live Oak Design starts a project by listening to you and learning, not by telling you what you need. We'll help you articulate your business goals and find out what your customers want. The result is a simple, clear plan for you and a great experience for your intended audience that is measurable and powerful.

Here are three reasons (there are more!) to entrust Live Oak Design with your interactive web design and development.

Usability

Ever get lost in a web site? It's frustrating. Chances are you won't go back again. Usability is Live Oak Design's top priority when designing your web site and other interactive web tools. We understand what it takes to keep your visitors' attention and have them come back for seconds.

Not only do we do our homework about you, we study up on current usability trends and ideas to incorporate into our work. For example, we make sure your website works on different systems (Windows, Mac & Linux) and different browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari). We test usability throughout the development process, from prototyping to the final product, to ensure that everything interfaces and works smoothly.

Content Management

A "News" page that's two years old is dead on arrival. Fresh, up-to-date content gives your customers a reason to visit your website again and again.

We build each site on Joomla, a Content Management System.

With an easy-to-use, template-based architecture, CMS gives you the power to maintain every aspect of your website's content. Want to be hands-off? That's OK. CMS makes the development process more efficient for us to use, too.

People

We're people persons. We pride ourselves on the level of personal contact we provide our clients. You'll always be able to talk directly to the people working on your project whenever you want. We give you clear, honest, and straightforward communication. No industry jargon or acronyms.

Live Oak also is well-rounded with a comprehensive skill set that allows us to handle every aspect of web development in-house, from architecture, usability and design, to application development and hosting, and to build solid, trusting relationships with our clients throughout the process. We hope that you will contact us so we can help you get your website project online or update your current site with a simple to use content management system.
