Web Site Design: Case Study -- HandOfMan.com

Gorges Web Sites played the role of expert engineering consultant on this e-commerce web site project. This client wanted to develop a state-of-the-art online sales web site, and was already pretty proficient in building basic web sites himself.

So we came to a unique relationship, wherein we setup a basic e-commerce system with a template design, and taught the owner how to extend and improve the code. He periodically came back to us as he found needs he couldn't solve. We then customized the application to suit his needs, and showed him what we did. This co-operative relationship was maintained from the start until site launch.

Our reduced work role afforded the owner remarkably low out of pocket costs on this project. Take a look! www.HandofMan.com

Working with Gorges Web Sites has proven to be the right choice for our upgrade to a database driven website. Their technical expertise, professional work ethic, and attention to detail are second to none.

This was a real 'do it yourself' client who had experience building his own web sites. We came in as expert consultants, setup an ecommerce framework for him to work in, taught him how the shopping cart works, and set him loose!

The home page shows our feature rich e-commerce suite of tools.

A full featured account manager, shopping cart, checkout and shipping module are easy to use.

Gorges Web Sites added in our state-of-the art auto-thumbnailing and image caching system for high performance and ease of use.

Their willingness to act as consultants allowed me to contribute hands on to the design and construction of the site. This resulted in an unbeatable combination of cost savings, and also in the ability for me to maintain and upgrade the site on my own for years to come.

I highly recommend their services to any business, whether in the creation of a new site from scratch, or in the upgrade of an existing site to the latest technologies.
