Website Design

Website Design by Michael McKennedy

I design websites...it's what I do. Most of my website design work has been performed for Vermont clients but this is the Internet age so distance is not a factor.

Take a look at my website design portfolio below. I have designed sites under the name Michael McKennedy as well as under Vermont PC Solutions.

Custom website design, template design, website hosting, email setup, custom graphics, stock photography etc...I do it all.

Hosting packages start at about $120 per year (domain, hosting and email). Each website design is unique therefore cost is project specific. I also update existing websites.

Rapid turn-around, dedicated support, reliable website design services is what you get when you build with me.

If you need more convincing call one of my clients below...go to their website...find the contact page and give them a call. I am certain that you will like what you hear.

Website Re-Design Project
SOEA

Template based, this site is based on customer feedback in terms of navigation. The old site (which I have been maintaining since about 2002) still contains code written by the original designer (lots of tables!) and was in need of an upgrade.

This is an ongoing project which can been seen by clicking the link below.

The Moonlight Lady Comes Back

www.VermontDiscoveryCruises.com

Website Update/Modification Project
New England Cruise Vacation

I built the original Moonlight Lady website in 2007. A new project manager came along and decided that they wanted a different site and with a new provider.

In December of 2008 The Moonlight Lady came back! Why? Service! I provide quick, accurate, friendly website design services at a resonable rate.

This template was not designed by me but I was hired to optimize and update the website content on Vermont Discovery Cruises. One of the first things I did was change out the Flash slideshows to HTML based (SEO friendly) slideshows and add title tags to all links sitewide.

Welcome back Vermont Discovery Cruises!

Homepage Design

The Friends of the Green River Reservoir

New Website Design Project
Green River Reservior

The scope of this project is currently to build a homepage from a .jpg image. The client will use the homepage as a template for the remaining site pages.

Javascript selects a random image (from a pre-defined list of images) when the browser is refreshed therefore a new main image appears when a user returns to the site.

Notch Above Tours

www.NotchAboveTours.com

New Site Launch
Notch Above Tours

This website went live Friday, May 23, 2008

Notch Above Tours: Founded in 1993, Notch Above Tours is a Vermont-based, full-service Tour Company providing an incredible range of motorcoach tours and tour design services. Our tours feature fascinating locations throughout the United States and Canada.

One of my faviorite website design portfolio pieces - this website uses an accordian-style menu, custom slideshow header (easily editable), and has six contact forms for providing leads.

Notch Above uses a custom "auto-hide" feature so that as tour dates pass the tour will be "removed" from the site. This saves the client money by removing the need to pay someone to remove tours from the site manually. You can see this in action on Notch Above Tours Vacation Guide. The JavaScript code has been tested in Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 3, and Safari for Windows.

Green Mountain Baseball League

www.GreenMountainLeague.com

New Site Launch
The Green Mountain Baseball League

This one went up in about two weeks...

This site takes advantage of free online tools from Google to allow the client(s) to update their own team schedules, game results etc... Good for them as far as keeping costs down - bad for me in regards to future potential income earned through website updates. The site also intergrates Google maps to allow visitors to search for driving directions to each game location.
