It's been a while, so let me catch you up on the fever that is Sitecats Web Development. With the completion of Alderfer Meats website, the near completion of Heavener Supply, we'd like to announce our newest arrival - Landis Supermarket.  Yes, we'll be designing a powerful new site to compliment the changes that Landis will be going through in 2008 including their new gas facilities in Telford, a new recipe book - and new features that only Sitecats can deliver.  It is truly an honor to serve a company like Landis Markets, so watch what we come up with.  It will be one of our best sites.

I always get my Alderfer Meats at Landis Market.  Now they're both clients!

We've officially become Sitecats Web Development.  We'll be sending out emails and letters to our current customers of the old Buxmont Online with our new invoicing and permanent address and phone numbers.  As a bonus for bearing with us through this change we won't be sending monthly statements until April 10th.  Take March's monthly fee on us.

More news to come..

My competition thinks I've gone loopy. Well that's just a tiny bit of a stretch. But now they're insinuating that we're 'giving away the farm' by allowing customers to do their own updates. I assure you, my customers, of the following:

Fig 2.1 This is the actual violin we play for our competition.

• We're giving our customers what they want, the power to edit their own content.
• Our quick turnaround for new website construction for most sites is still less than 15 working days. (This includes conversions of existing sites to your new system)
• We use the Joomla! content management system. The most popular and flexible CMS.
• Drupal programming available for large portals.
• We can handle more sites with this system. Like YOURS!
• We're still available for graphics and text support when required.
• Free banner ad at Buxmont.biz for two months trial. Bux-mont enjoys 2000 page views per day from local web visitors.

Sitecats is fairly oblivious, loose and unmoved by programming tasks involved in our every day techno-filled world.  But I get a little choked up knowing that we're nearly complete with Alderfer Meats Incorporated.  Their exquisite creamed dried beef.  Their lightly salted ham is mighty fine anytime.  Now, you think I'm just pushing my client's product as a service to them but their site gets MANY more hits than mine and, I assure you, my aim is true.  Now head on over to Landis Supermarket and see what I'm talking about.  If you're a local yokel like me, you already know about Alderfer quality.  Put some on your shopping list!

Thanks to Samantha and the entire Alderfer Meats Family of Brands for letting us have the freedom to show our very best in programming, function and information architecture.  Now may you go forth and edit the content, images and pricing on your own.  We're here if you need us.

I'd like to personally thank our programmers Tony Binsley and Jeremy Ralston for their hard work and imagination.  I was stunned by what they put together for the recipe book !  This proves once again that Sitecats has the product that business needs to separate themselves from the competition.

We'll make your site pretty. You keep it current.  Because fresh content gets websites noticed on search engines unlike any other factor.
