How Website Design is Like the Holiday Season

From all of us at RT Design Group, we hope you had a wonderful Christmas and holiday celebration this past weekend! But...let's be honest. A lot of times the Christmas season is filled with family drama and/or heightened emotional experiences. As I recover from the Christmas holiday with all of its parties, expectations, and family encounters, I personally feel that website design can be a little like the holiday season:   ... Read more

Client-Centered Business

In the world of web design, most design businesses -- particularly local ones -- have a main focus. One thing that they're really good at that no one else could do better than them. When I started RT Design Group, I did not necessarily want to have one specific thing (such as cutting-edge graphic design) that I could do better than everyone else. Rather, I wanted to put together a team of people that sought to pursue their ... Read more

Keeping Projects Going

The holiday season is upon us, and after successfully navigating Thanksgiving Day, Black Friday, and the remainder of Thanksgiving weekend, I am already sensing that the next few weeks encompassing the holidays will run quickly by. In keeping with many other seasonal trends, at work, many small businesses tend to say, "'Tis the Season," and push off larger projects that deserve our focus. We spend a lot of time working ...

Why Rebrand?

Why Rebrand?

In the simplest terms, your business' brand is a combination of a variety of factors, including your values, products, services, and identity. Your logo (brand image) represents and embodies all of these factors with a single, hopefully balanced image. In most cases, though, particularly for small businesses, logos are an afterthought -- a dreaded necessity that you either stepped into or designed yourself in the beginning ... Read more

When Should You Update Your Website Photos?

In the world of web design -- a world in which things are constantly changing, evolving, growing, etc. -- it's always difficult to know exactly when to update your website's content and graphic elements.

Why Summer is the Best Time to Evaluate Your Web Presence

Summer is here -- it's official, and it's time to strategize. Last week, the summer solstice gave us the longest day of the year, and summer officially began. I love summertime, even though I live in a very warm climate in which summer brings out the bugs, frogs, humidity, and heat. Now that summer is less of a circumstance (i.e. summer break for students) and more of a mindset, I spend some time each summer revisiting RT ... Read more

Well-Designed Contact Us Pages

Most of our clients request that we include a contact us page on their site. If they do not request this page, we often recommend it. Capturing visitor information is a must, particularly if your business centers around various services (i.e. plumbing, chiropractic, roofing, massage, weight loss, etc.). This user-generated information provides businesses with an opportunity to contact prospects. Knowing just how much information ... Read more
