Recover Your Website

Valley Cities contacted us to redesign their antiquated website. Previously, staff managed over 100 mental health groups and classes for four locations through a cumbersome database, which was difficult for visitors to navigate. Now, using WordPress, staff can add, edit and remove event activities easily from any web browser. And the events are easier for users to find and provide clearer, more helpful information.

A font-resizer helps low vision visitors. And seven customizable widgets allow staff to promote a variety of important messages, like the 24-hour crisis line and fundraising events. To keep costs down, Valley Cities published most of its own site content. This step allowed our team to focus on accessibility, branding, database development, design, information architecture, and usability.

A splashy new HTML5 WordPress child theme for The Braitmayer Foundation.

I love open source solutions, like WordPress. Not only are they affordable, but open source and not-for-profit organizations foster community.

“Virtual agency, actual results” is how Matt Karaus describes Gravity Communications. Collaborating with freelancers like me, Gravity attracts big brands while burying big overhead.

A fresh new look for Bothell residential painters, Dave Rushing & Pam Brooks. My latest WordPress website includes several custom image galleries and short social media videos to improve search engine optimization.

We couldn’t me more impressed with the talents of Scott Marlow. We hired Scott to rebuild our website in Word Press. We asked him to work in partnership with our art designer and social media strategist.

There was never a hesitation in Scott. He is very knowledgeable and informed. He worked diligently with our other contractors. We relied on him to explain things along the way. He is a very good communicator, both written and verbal. Scott has an upbeat personality and is a true delight to work with. We appreciate his being patient with us.

We love our website! We think it is the best painting contractor website in the greater Seattle area.

All that Scott does behind the scenes to make the site function is the fascinating part, and hard for us to understand completely, but we know far more now, after working with Scott, then we did in the beginning.

We are delighted to refer Scott Marlow to all that are in need of a new fabulous website.

You can trust that, in Scott, you are getting a very knowledgeable, talented website builder.

Huge Appreciation from:
Dave Rushing & Pam Brooks, owners, Painting America, Inc.

My latest collaborative website project for the Washington Dental Service Foundation’s Access to Baby & Child Dentistry program. This re-branded site includes a fresh logo and updated color palette by David Owen Hastings, a password-protected online toolkit for dental coordinators, and an online database of ABCD-certified dentists. Powered by WordPress, of course.

Scott has worked on two websites for us. As a non-profit organization we rely on websites to help us connect with partners and get our message out. WordPress allows a lot of flexibility and Scott is great with suggestions for optimum performance. We are so pleased with his responsiveness and expertise. Laura Smith – Washington Dental Service Foundation, President & CEO
