Welcome

Employment Resource Center - Brainerd MN Jobs - Part Time and Full Time We developed the original site about 8 years ago. Chad Harting - owner of Employment Resource Center of Brainerd, Minnesota and I collaborated on the design. The site has served them well through the years, but it was time for a tune-up. We decided on an off-shoot of a one page design as is so common these days. We added a bunch of custom wing dings and other functions to give it some real pizazz. The result features a message window against the backdrop of beautiful lake scene, emblematic of this vacation area. ...

[caption id="attachment_1615" align="alignright" width="450"] AHW New Design 2016[/caption] Aitkin Hardwoods is a long time client and the website was well liked by visitors, according to feedback from the staff. This company produces custom flooring and paneling and many other home products with a rustic flare that is unmatched anywhere. Although the site was well received, we wanted to add a responsive nature to it, since many of the patrons are from out of town and view the site in a mobile environment.

Brick House Pizza Bread and Bagel is a favorite restaurant in the Brainerd Lakes area. The site definitely needed a facelift since we'd crafted the original over 10 years ago. We wanted something different for the website, since we already had a mobile website. The mobile website was built specifically for folks on the go, as is typical for this type of business. With their mobile traffic coming in at over 50% it was a necessity. The new design of the website features a long one page display, which I have historically avoided, but it does allow for some interesting gymnastics. Check it o...

Ted's Signs is one of the oldest and most trusted sign making companies in the Brainerd Lakes area. Owner Brandi Breitbach contacted us to take their website to the next level. She wanted to offer online "Do-It-Yourself" sign making, as well as connect an eCommerce engine to the website. Since the "Do-It-Yourself" application was very custom, we had to go with a platform allowing for such programming. We chose OSCommerce and programmer Todd Holforty with ProhostOne. I have used Todd extensively in the past. He's one of the best, most creative "programmer web guys" I've come across in ...

We build this original site back in 2004. It was high time for a new look and feel. [caption id="attachment_1405" align="alignright" width="300"] New Site: Launched August 2015[/caption] This particular site is using the OSCommerce e-commerce engine and comes with all the bells and whistles. The old site served us well for many years, but as you know, it's always good to stay up with the times and update designs to reflect a more modern look. This one features a slider banner upper right as well as a mobile rendition making Google friendly and mobile friendly at the same time. [...

New Website for Crosby, MN Lutheran Church In 2004, BAMsites, a Brainerd MN area web services company, was asked to build a website for this local church. We employed a Joomla platform at the time and the site served us well for many years. Last summer the website team gathered to pursue a redesign. The site needed to look impressive, be welcoming to new members, easy to navigate, and mobile friendly. There are a number of church templates available out there so I did a search to cut to the chase on some design ideas. Since I placed the church's new site on Wordpress, we went with ...

[caption id="attachment_1350" align="alignright" width="150"] Original Site ~ 2005[/caption] Rick Kreutzfeldt Law Office deals largely in estate planning, social security disability claims, real estate law, and business law. We did a much needed makeover for this site that was originally created in 2005. BAMsites redesigned the site and added some contemporary movement, as well as replicating the original SEO strategy what resulted in top search results for the areas that Mr. Kreutzfeldt specializes: Estate Planning Social Security Disability Business Law Real Estate Law ...

The animal hospital is owned and operated by Julia Fry, DVM and Matt Stahl, DVM. They offer a complete range of vet services focusing on dogs, cats, and horses. Their previous website was from a veterinary website service and gave little personality to their business. Everything was "boilerplate", meant to apply to any vet clinic and was generating little, if any, business. They asked BAMsites to assess the situation and offer an alternative that would not only look good, but most importantly put them atop the search engines for the local region they service. Since their collective goal ...
