Almost There…
I managed to sneak away from the whirlwind of other tasks on my desk for a few hours today to work on continuing the big switch-over from my old site to this one. I got some big progress made and now all the major pieces are now in place. There’s still some minor things that need to be tweaked and I still have to go down to the courthouse and make the name change official, but we’re almost there. It will be so nice to be officially Ink Plant and to get out of this state of limbo.
The biggest change (other than swapping out logos, etc.) that I made in the switch was to separate the site into 4 categories: Company, Network, Blog, and Code:
- Company - This was the entire site before. It consists of the stuff you’d expect to see from a web development company: a portfolio, information about us, a sales pitch, etc. This is where I want to attract new development clients and also to provide a resource area (with invoices and such) for my current clients.
- Network - Right now, this section simply lists and links to the various sites that Ink Plant maintains as a publisher. In the future, I want to build this out to include more information for potential advertisers on the Network.
- Blog - You’re looking at it. I’m going to try very hard to keep posting up here regularly. I’d love to use this to start discussions regarding interesting aspects of the web development business.
- Code - This is going to be a repository of code snippets that I’ve put together. I definitely have some work to do there still because there aren’t enough code chunks to be useful yet and the design looks kinda lame. But, that’s probably going to be a project for later…
Well, I hope you like the new site. If you have any comments/suggestions, send them my way. Have a good night everyone.
