Welcome to 1 MIND DESIGN: Custom Web Sites Designed for the Future!
1 Mind Design is my home-based business in NORMAN, OK. If you need a custom web design or a redesign of your online home, consider my skillsets for creating an attractive layout with stunning graphics at a modest price. Most small business owners judge a web site on aesthetics, and certainly that is important. However, to succeed online the HTML programming code used to create your web site may be even more critical.
Why Emphasize Creating Pages "Designed for the Future"?
The future is here. People surf the internet with handheld devices like IPods and cell phones, while handicapped persons now have screen readers and devices that "read" content from web pages aloud using voice synthesizers. Special printing equipment can print your site content in Braille creating a series of raised dots that blind people can read. Older design techniques do NOT handle these devices as well as XHTML with CSS.
XHTML and CSS - The Future of Web Design
The W3C has code standards to cover current trends in computer equipment, plus forward looking concepts for devices that have yet to be invented. XHTML (to replace HTML), and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) are the latest methods for programming that handle devices in use today, plus they assure your web site will display well on new computer products introduced in the future! Next, Consider What You Don't See. Older HTML code is "bloated" so it doesn't load as fast as XHTML. All code is written in XHTML and CSS.
Comparison of Types of Web Sites
Other than specifying one page or multi-page sites, the major difference in design types are Static (informational) or Dynamic (interactive) pages. My specialty is low-cost information web sites for small business owners. If you need a dynamic site with password security, e-commerce, or database options then you will need a bigger budget. If uncertian check out the services page for starters. Then let me know what you have in mind.
