Launched New Website for Real Estate Agent
Launched a new website for a residential real estate agent in New Orleans which was designed by Computer Dynamics, Inc. and is also hosted by us. This website is powered by a content management system (CMS) so that content is easily added and updated by our client.
The individual detailed real estate listing pages include a photo slide show and map showing the location of the listed property. The map includes the option for a visitor to obtain directions to the property without leaving the site.
Real estate listings are automatically added to an “Active Listings” page with links back to the detailed listing pages. The Active Listings page also includes a map showing all of the agent’s current listings along with thumbnail pictures, links to the detailed property pages and the ability to obtain directions right from the map.
Implemented New Client Website Using CMS and Social Media
Implemented new website for a New Orleans, LA based client wishing to further develop their business through an interactive online presence. We created their new website using a content management system to provide them with the ability to maintain their site content without the need for in-house technical resources.
A key requirement of our client was for their site to provide interaction with various social media services. We accomplished this with minimal cost to our client using existing add-ons.
Transitioned Our Website to Content Management System
We are happy to report the transition of our static website to a fully database driven site that is powered by a content management system (CMS).
The full content of our site is now stored in an SQL database. The presentation of the content is controlled by HTML, CSS and PHP.
This is a highly desirable solution for business websites as content changes can be performed quickly and easily by non-technical personnel.
