This is an interesting take on an eCommerce site - a local group planning to take aid to Uganda wanted a site that would allow them to sell 'gifts' as a way of donating money. As a charity, they are obviously looking to keep costs down as much as possible, so a CMS that they can edit themselves is perfect.

By installing the Drupal CMS with the Ubercart eCommerce sytem we were able to keep costs down while providing all the functionality they need. We also donated the site hosting and made a donation ourselves to help kick the campaign off. We encourage you to visit and consider doing the same.

Mindful Strategies wanted a site makeover to brighten things up visually while at the same time introducing a CMS backend so that pages can be edited more easily, a newsletter can be integrated and other more advanced administration tasks can also be handled.

The result is a redesign that reflects the original concept but adds a level of sophistication through using colour, photography and balance.

Countrywide Cottages came to us with a problem: they were listed on many accommodation and related websites and could see from their statistics tracking that people were clicking through to their own website, but this traffic was not converting well enough to enquiries or bookings.

A redesign lead to a cleaner, more attractive graphic design as well as clearer site navigation, some rewritten copy and purposeful pathways to lead viewers to book. The result is a site that will benefit Countrywide's bottom line as well as adding to their professional profile.

Ocean Beach Townhouse wanted to cut the amount  they spend on advertising on accommodation and booking websites by setting up their own website to advertise and inform visitors about their apartments.

So we created this very simple brochure site with a nice graphic layout, a photo gallery, plenty of descriptive text and testimonials and the relevant contact information.

www.stickyfingerscatering.com.au

This is a very simple brochure site created for a local caterer.

The site serves as a contact portal - her other advertising leads people to look for more information on her website, which then leads people to call or email to request catering menus.

This is an example of how a very simple but beautiful site is an important part of a marketing and advertising process.

www.tasmania4adventure.com.au

This website, created for The Huon Trail Tourism in Tasmania, highlights four of the region's most impressive locations.

The graphically rich site aims to draw holiday makers to the region and provide information and inspiration. Media includes video, maps, pdf downloads and plenty of pretty photographs.

For this site we worked within the existing guidelines that The Huon Trail has developed for their graphic design and corporate image, while incorporating as much graphic flair as possible. This final look fits the corporate image while being attractive to visitors and easy to navigate.

Before and after.

www.profbunsen.com.au

Prof Bunsen provides Science Shows and Kid's Parties and wanted to make his website more colourful and attractive.

He also gave us the brief that he wanted to better integrate the site's online shop, matching the template of the rest of the site and providing plenty of links to new and featured products.

We worked with the existing content and ecommerce shopping cart, giving the whole lot a facelift and optimisation.

www.housebroker.com.au

HouseBroker is a for sale by owner property listing website that is dedicated to selling houses without going through a real estate agent.

We built this site using the Drupal CMS to handle user logins, publishing and eCommerce. While the mechanics of it are relatively complex the aim is for a simple and visually pleasing user experience, to set HouseBroker above their competitors.

So if you want to buy property privately, sell property privately, or look at private holiday rentals, check out HouseBroker.

www.grandvewe.com.au

Grandvewe Cheeses in Birchs Bay, Tasmania produces a range of sheep cheeses from their own herd of ewes.

This CMS website replaces their previous site, and as well as a major graphic redesign it now allows the site owners to edit pages and add news articles and products.

It also has a shopping cart and eCommerce store to show and sell the cheeses and other products available.

www.superhealthy.com.au

A local health educator required a website to provide health advice and sell health products online. Regular updates and articles keep readers coming back so the system has to make it easy for the site owner to add and update articles, as well as manage the eCommerce store.

As the solution we used the popular open-source CMS 'Drupal' with an add-on eCommerce module. This gave us maximum flexibility and means that future additions can be integrated easily.
