SEO/SEM on a First Name Basis

With nearly 90% of Web viewers now consulting search engines or directories, online marketing has become a critical component of every Web site strategy. But for many, Search Engine Optimization and Marketing (SEO/SEM) has a black magic component.

Intranets Improve Employee Communication

An Intranet can be a complex and powerful tool for your company. Simply defined, it is a private Web site that is available only through controlled access, usually running on your Web server, designed to share information of interest to your staff. An effectively designed Intranet will share information of all types quickly and efficiently with all employ ees -- 24 hours a day -- without regard to computer platform or their location. All that is needed is Internet access and a user name and passcode. New Village Media has designed Intranets that are simple and those that are complex. Some sites provide such features as news feeds on subjects related to that company, chatrooms to share company information, human resource forms and video training films. Others primarily share employment policy manuals and reporting forms. Studies have shown the success of an Intranet depends on whether personnel know how to make use of it. For that reason our staff will concentrate on building an Intranet that is easy to navigate and understand.

Custom Software Solutions

Recognizing that each business has unique requirements and that out-of-the-box software doesn't always meet the business objectives of every client, New Village Media has developed hundreds of custom software solutions. From online calculators to sophisticated software integration, we have years of experience identifying just the right software solution for our clients.
