The ladies at ShelbiePress.com love color, and that’s just what they got in this sleek website which is optimized for search engines. In fact, they got their first calls and first job from their new website before it was even finished! The owners said the new site is “better than a new car.” In an email, they wrote: “Thrilled!!!!!!!!!! beyond words Thank you, Debbie & Michelle”

When I started to update my website, it was a nightmare until I met Cathy of Pajamadeen.

Cathy’s expertise at search engine optimization and marketing has changed the value of our website. I have been continually happy with prompt, professional service. I especially appreciate her valuable feedback and guidance on the design of our site based on her knowledge and expertise. Within a short period of time, we have already generated enough sales to offset the cost of our site development.

After we developed linguist David Donnell’s Nuts in New York blog (seen below), he returned to us with his latest endeavor, NYC Rhymology. It features an edgy, image-oriented theme and a witty rhyming beat appropriate to the city that never sleeps.

David Dowell, the executive producer of oomphTV.com, wanted a site appealing to the active lifestyle community over age 40, which would provide inspiration and health information through video content. The result was a hip and trendy, yet understated, website, which the client is thrilled with.

Tammy of oomphTV said: “We so lucked out when we found you…We feel like we’ve found web angels.”

Let us work our magic for you.

Claudia wanted an upbeat, optimistic and feminine look to match her excitement about her new blogging adventures.

She was fun to work with, and wrote: “Thanks much to Cathy, from Pajamadeen, who worked on the inner ‘guts’ of my blog (Who knew there were so many ways to get search engine optimization??). She is a hoot and makes me laugh mainly at myself. I wish I had found her five months ago.”

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Claudia!

Robin wanted a sophisticated, yet light-hearted look for her frugalista blog at I Love a Good Bargain.

She offers money-saving tips, with a highly entertaining writing style.

Phil Hodgen is a Pasadena, California-based attorney who specializes in international and domestic tax planning for individuals, families, partnerships and closely held corporations.

He’s especially well versed when it comes to FIRPTA (Foreign Investors in U. S. Real Property Tax Act).

For his blog, he wanted a clean, professional look. He chose the versatile Thesis theme.

Our client Lauren, also of New York City, wanted a sleek, contemporary theme for LifeStyler magazine. The versatile Revolution theme had just what she was looking for. The theme is also used by such publishing luminaries as CNN, People Magazine and The New York Times. When you want the best, the Revolution theme is hard to overlook.

Excited, she wrote: “It’s really hard to find the sort of customer service that Cathy provides. It was an absolute pleasure working with her. Her ideas, extensive knowledge and quick responses made this process completely painless — and even fun!”

Haley’s Giggle is a Washington, DC-based WordPress blog chronicling the life of a little girl with a rare disease — CAMT, or Congenital Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia. It’s the only blog dealing with this condition from a lay person’s standpoint. Doctors treating Haley use the blog as reference material to see how she’s progressing on a day-to-day basis. Haley loves puppies, heart-shaped balloons and crayons and her mother wanted this WordPress blog to have a childlike, simple yet sophisticated quality to it.

Judging from blog comments, readers love the new design. Liora Greenberg wrote: “I have to tell you how much I love the new website! It’s perfect!” Dana Little Jackson commented: “I just LOVE the new website!!! It’s adorable, just like Haley.” Anne wrote: “This website is better than ever!!! Just like our Haley!!!!”

Nuts in NY wanted a graphically striking WordPress blog that would really stand out from the competition. Traffic is high and, less than a month after we began optimizing the blog, its Alexa page rank went from an abysmal 22 million to a very respectable 432,631.

Blog owner David Donnell wrote: “I couldn’t be happier having had Cathy at Pajamadeen help develop my website, and teach me about blogging. She’s been a great hand-holder throughout the development phase — my site’s development and my own!

“Prior to coming up with the Nuts in NY concept, I knew nothing about blogging. I had read a few political blogs—nothing like my site—but I hadn’t given a moment’s thought as to how one sets up or maintains a blog. But Cathy demystified the process and deciphered issues which at first made me anxious; I anticipated it all being far more overwhelming than she made it.

“As sappy as it sounds, there are times now when I’m writing a post or doing some work on my blog when I get a giddy feeling that I want to drop everything and THANK Cathy! (But I get ahold of myself and get back to work.)”

This successful website, VintagePostcards.org, wanted a clean, simple blog to show off vintage postcards to best effect, while remaining thematically and graphically related to their website.

We designed their WordPress blog and had it up in days. Installing a WordPress blog on your website is good for search engine optimization; this blog quickly achieved a page rank (PR) of 3.

Author and radio commentator Ruth Pennebaker of Austin, Texas liked the classic “Misty” theme and wanted to move from a WordPress-hosted blog to her own self-hosted blog for greater flexibility, while retaining this theme.

If you’re graduating from a WordPress-hosted blog to your own self-hosted blog, we can help you find a reliable host at a reasonable price, and walk you through the move.

We also offer WordPress backups and WordPress upgrades.

Author Chris Carlsson of San Francisco, California also wanted a clean, simple look for his Nowtopians blog. He chose the Atahualpa theme as we moved his blog from Movable Type to WordPress.

Carlsson, executive director of the multimedia history project Shaping San Francisco, is a writer, publisher, editor, and community organizer. He was one of the founders, editors and frequent contributors to the ground-breaking San Francisco magazine, Processed World. He also helped launch the monthly bike-ins known as Critical Mass, which have spread to five continents and over 300 cities. He’s also a co-founder and past board president of CounterPULSE, a San Francisco-based arts organization.
