    Website Refresh for Galoop Classes

    1. From Tadpoles to Scholars at Galoop Classes

    Galoop is a warm, welcoming space where growth, play, and learning happen together. They host classes for children ages 6 months-4 years with their caregivers. Their unique program offers flexible schedules, diverse education and enrichment activities, bilingual story-times, and childhood development expert-backed care. Galoop’s founder, Cecilia, came to me because their website experience did not truly reflect their values and how much fun they are!

    2. Wix Website Design for Early Education

    After discussing with their founder, Cecilia Matson, we identified a few focus targets for the refresh:

    1. Make the website more fun– Their old website was very minimal. On first glance, you might think they were a B2B company, not a children’s space. We needed to create a more fun and lively experience. I updated their typography, created colorful page layouts, and added some playful touches like section dividers and custom background patterns.
    2. Streamline the user experience– The main users for the Galoop website is busy parents booking on their phone. But the signup process was not intuitive. I made registration easier with improved forms and clearer language. I also tuned the page layouts to improve readability and ensure the site was fully accessible.
    3. Improve their page rank– While they knew some SEO basics, they needed some help tuning their pages. I added analytics tools and implemented better SEO practices.

    3. Icon Set + Social Graphics

    This website refresh needed a fun visual touch to pull everything together. Pulling inspiration from their cute jumping frog logo, I illustrated 40+ custom icons that appear across the website. This library of icons can be used for social media and marketing. To complete their launch, I created a bunch of easy-to-use Canva templates. Now, they have the tools for future program announcements, activity spotlights, and testimonials.

    Working with Sel to redesign my business website has been a truly fantastic experience. Their creativity, clear communication, openness to feedback, and responsiveness set them apart. Having worked with website designers before, my experience with Sel was the best by far! They consistently delivered ahead of deadlines and took great care to enhance our SEO and online presence. The new website is not only beautiful but also engaging and easy to navigate. The custom icon images they created are absolutely adorable and add a unique touch. Thanks to Sel, our website not only looks amazing but performs better than ever. I highly recommend their expertise!

    Website Launch and Marketing Support for Visual Intelligence Software

    1. Innovating Visual Intelligence Support: EyesOnIt

    EyesOnIt is a SaaS company that empowers organizations to gain control of their operations through robust situational awareness. Spun out from Mosaic ATM‘s Software division, they needed a new SaaS website design and marketing support to launch their software service.

    2. SaaS Website Development

    EyesOnIt is a fledgling service, so it needed compelling visuals to compensate for its still-developing portfolio. I developed a modern and engaging aesthetic that stands apart from competitor SaaS website development. I created custom illustrations using a clean and modern style to communicate their target product offerings effectively. The site clearly describes target use cases in multiple industries and effectively outlines their integration process. I also edited a video that highlights their railroad safety use case.

    2. Digital Marketing

    To round out EyesOnIt’s web presence, I generated assets that can be used for organic marketing campaigns via social media and Google ad campaigns. I created compelling visuals by pulling assets from the website as well as harnessing stock images.

  • Accessible and Modern Redesign of a Spiritual Center’s Website

    Accessible and Modern Redesign of a Spiritual Center’s Website

    1. Elevating Spiritual Journeys: A Transformational Web Redesign

    The Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center of New York is a branch of the Ramakrishna Order in India. Although they received consistent web traffic, their website, first launched in the early 90’s, was in dire need of a modern update. From unsupported Flash plugins to unresponsive table-formatted HTML, they needed help bringing their new vision to life. I overhauled the website and coded the redesign in pure HTML/CSS/JS. Our goals included an aesthetic refresh, a site architecture strategy, SEO improvements, and E-Commerce integration.

    Since launching, the website’s user base has increased by 60%, and page views have increased by 30%!

    2. Website Redesign

    The original website was right out of a Web 2.0 playbook, plastered with heavily textured backgrounds, broken plugins, and unintuitive galleries, they needed a fresh approach to invite users to discover their spiritual teachings. Taking a minimalist approach, the new website features a clean and organized structure accented with their practice’s characteristic red. It is also fully responsive, delivering mobile site visitors an accessible and readable experience.

    3. Strategic Organization

    The original website was riddled with hidden links and confusing interfaces. The new structure takes a two-pronged navigation approach, with a dominant navigation for top hierarchy links, and a secondary navigation so users can access any page within a section. This is especially important for their vast archive of spiritual teachings. Now, users can clearly navigate through a series of teachings and know exactly where they are on the site. Additionally, the mobile site features an intuitive collapsing navigation so users can minimize scroll fatigue.

    I enlisted Sel’s help because our website was out of date and needed a total overhaul. Sel worked to understand our goals and very quickly produced diagrams so we could agree on a vision for the update. They were friendly, timely, attentive, and unafraid to learn about our full suite of functions and services. Not only did they produce a more modern, user-friendly site, Sel also showed me how to use Google Analytics so I could better understand my users. In short, Sel was a pleasure to work with and did a fantastic job. I highly recommend them.

    3. SEO & Accessibility Improvements

    As a passionate advocate of accessible design, I know that following best practices improves not only the website experience for abled and disabled users alike, but tangibly improves search rank. I took a focused pass through the website ensuring readable text, clearly identified links and buttons, and image alt texts.
