Foundry Designs Launches New Website!

Its here! Our brand new website is live, complete with a totally new design, a host of new features, and all-new content. We built this website from the ground up to be easy to use, so you can find exactly what you are looking for fast. We employed up-to-the-minute techniques in every aspect of our website, from the structuring of the navigation, to the selection and placement of images, to the programming code behind it all. Our ultimate goal was to build this website for you, our clients and visitors!

Here are some highlights of the new website:

• Multi-level navigation. This provides an easier means for users to find what they are looking for quickly.
• Better content. We took some of the content from our old website, filtered it, refined it, added some fresh information, and viola!
• More content. We added some completely new topics for our users to explore.
• Better technology. Behind the scenes we used new technologies as well as old technologies in new ways. What does this mean to you? Much of the content will download faster, and we can update it much more quickly, allowing for new content more frequently.
• More features. Simply put, we added more stuff – a newsletter, a free quote form, blogs, podcasts, and even some games.

So why did we change our website? It needed to change to support an overall shift in the way we do business. Just like any other successful business, we are evolving to meet the needs and demands of the online marketplace. In addition to building the new website, we have formed new partnerships, implemented cutting edge technologies, hired new talent, and streamlined our processes, all with one goal in mind: To deliver world-class service to our clients.

Our Philosophy

Your website should be a critical part of your marketing effort, not just an add-on or a luxury. It shouldn’t be something that you get just because you think you need to have one: It should be fully integrated into every aspect of your marketing plan. Today, your website address is almost as important as your phone number. Because of this, we make sure that your website is the best representation of your business as possible. We also make sure that your website has every possible advantage over your competitors when users search for what you offer. The proportion of people that find local businesses through the Internet is increasing every year, while traditional methods of reaching customers simply aren’t as effective as they used to be.

It’s important that potential clients understand how we view our business. We don’t just make websites – we want to get our clients noticed online, and we want to bring them more customers.
