May 2010

InHouseCapital Corporation needed a simple, effective solution to showcase the spare properties they have so vacationers can find their cost effective and luxurious vacation homes. How better to advertise and provide information to word-of-mouth customers than a business card with a domain name and a straight-forward website that provides pricing, availability, and pictures?

Scott eSolutions Ltd. was contracted to build this solution. It is built in HTML, CSS, with a lightbox plug-in. Lightbox is an HTML add-on that provides an easy to use, familiar slideshow for images of the properties. Google Calendar was employed to display availability for each property. Staff is able to update the availability calendars for each property within their own Google account. Changes are reflected live on the website.

April 2010

While in Costa Rica during the winter of 2009-2010 I met a new business owner in Playa Del Coco. Specializing in medical tourism and providing therapeutic massages, chiropractic services and physiotherapy, Serena Therapeutic Massage can provide physical therapy and treatment in one of the most spectacular places in the Americas.

Serena Therapeutic Massage wanted to add an online presence to their marketing campaign. With resources like an on-staff physiotherapist and chiropractor the owner wanted people in the area to be able to find the services if they looked on the internet. Primarily targeting Costa Rica using SEO, Serena Therapuetic Massage.com has already seen significant organic traffic via Google seearches thanks to the no-nonsense SEO tactics employed in its development.

Miami, OK *update: Launched November 4, 2008
Equipment for the Professional

Scott eSolutions overhaules an existing website for Don Hume Leathergoods Inc. and installs a new shopping cart eSolution. Besides managing the e-commerce business of the new website for DonHume.com, Scott eSolutions Ltd also delivered a manageable solution for the administrators and business personel to define what products are saleable under what conditions. Or even more specifically, given a certain type of handgun, finding all the holsters and accessories that fit it.

For security professionals, tough missions require good training and equipment with simple levels of safety and lasting performance. DonHume.com sells only the best crafted leather goods for the people who need it and security professionals accross North America want a name they can trust. For DonHume.com it was accomplished using features built-in to the base e-commerce technology eSolution used, The Zen-Cart.

Most leather products can even be created upon their ordering so as not to carry any extra stock. Don Hume Leathergoods Inc. supplies the top agencies with their leather and nylon goods - and the new website will be more reliable for the retail shoppers, nationwide distributors, and main office in Miami, Oklahoma.

The shopping cart integration utilizes software from The Zen-Cart team at www.zen-cart.com. Ingenious shopping cart software that allows product definition and granularity like no other. Ideal for exacting products like holsters and matching them to just the right weapons. Holsters and accessories are available in various leathers, and ballistic nylon material. Different colors, finishes, other options and upgrades are also available. Orders from the website are sent for manufacture and are billed securely to the customers credit card when the item(s) ship.

The Alberta Ingenuity Fund: Drupalfied!

Scott — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 22:20:58 -0600

From the home page of the Alberta Ingenuity Fund website:

The Alberta Ingenuity Fund supports science and engineering research of the highest calibre, to create a prosperous future for the province. It draws funding from a $1 billion endowment established and managed by the Government of Alberta to build the capacity for innovation, especially in areas with long lasting social and economic impact.

This is an organization requiring cutting edge communications technologies to spread their message, and avail information about the latest research grants, student scholarships and other funding programs available in the province of Alberta. I was able to take everything about their previous website and "drupalfy" it. Using the open source website framework technology "Drupal" I was able to provide everything they had in their old website, plus a whole lot more. Running on their own in-house virtual servers, Scott eSolutions was tasked with installing and configuring the virtual Centos (5.2) OS linux server. Video transcoding capabilities built in. Publishing videos has never been easier, internal administrators can now upload videos of up to 100MB through their web browser and have them automatically transcoded into an efficient window size easy for streaming, with a preview, and a thumbnail image.

Tasks like organizing, previewing, tracking, and adding content became a lot easier for the administrators of this website. The ability to publish and unpublish content, preview content, and categorize content had previously been non-existent or limited. Today, they're using tried and tested PHP code that began as the Drupal framework, but was customized for their needs.

This site was launched September 16th, 2008 using Drupal v5.10 and contributed modules. Some of these modules include: CCK, Views 1, Flashvideo, Lightbox2, FCKeditor, Imagecache, Taxonomy Breadcrumb, XML Sitemap, and the Zen theme. Scott eSolutions did not provide the site design or graphical elements and was hired to improve the content management while keeping everything the same for the users and the public.

Work continues as Scott eSolutions continues to support Alberta Ingenuity Fund with help and technical support, as well as develop a new home page and make other major changes to the website structure, bringing it inline with todays Web standards.
