Portfolio: Local Search Optimization

According to Google, 97% of people conduct searches for local businesses online. This is where you need to be found. If you aren't listed, and your listing isn't optimized, chances are that consumers are passing you up for your competition.

We currently manage local search optimization for several of our clients, including the one seen to the right (that client is listed first for key search terms in their local market).

We ensure listing of your business in Google, Bing, and Yahoo places. Depending on your optimization package, other local directories may be included, such as Yelp, CitySearch, Yellowpages, Superpages, and local directories.

Some notable White Wonder Studios accomplishments for clients:

• First placement listing for keyword search term(s) in several local markets on Google Maps/Places.
• Top 3 listing for keyword search terms for local markets on Google Maps/Places.
• 30,000+ unique impressions (individual views) of client's Google Places in a 30 day time period.

Another key component of online local marketing is online advertising, which we also manage for several clients.

What is White Wonder?

We get asked this all the time. White Wonder Studios is definitely a unique name, and elicits a variety of theories from those trying to figure out its meaning.

Initially "white wonder" was an analogy for snow. Isaiah (our chief creative visionary) grew up playing in snowdrifts and blizzards so the name seemed fitting, but then something crazy happened. Isaiah found himself on bottom of the world living/working for 6 months in Antarctica. He was a firefighter for the Antarctic Fire Department protecting McMurdo Station and the military airfields from the threat of fire.

To experience Antarctica is to experience a land full of wonder, beauty, excitement, purity, and adventure. The pristine, unadulterated environment sets it apart as one of the few world wonders unscathed by man.

The select chosen few who brave Antarctica refer to it as "the ice" - because that's literally what it's covered in. It really is a "white wonder" of a continent. And so, the name white wonder took on a whole new personal meaning, as "the ice" is permanently engraved in Isaiah's my mind and heart.

"There is a saying amongst those who have survived life in Antarctica: 'The Ice gets in your blood.' According to the lore, once you have stepped foot on the ice, you will never forget it for the rest of your life, and will always want to return." -Unknown

About The White Wonder Logo

The White Wonder Studios logo is the result of a creative mind working abstractly. There were no starting points, no foundations, no ideas - nothing but creativity flowing from the mind of an artist through his/her hand onto the computer screen.

A logo should create a branding image and effectively represent the type of work a company does. We feel that representing our driving creative force does just that.

The White Wonder Studios Website

We love thinking outside the box - we actually hate it (the box) altogether. It's so limiting, un-progressive, and stifles creativity. So we thought outside the box for our website.

We wanted the screen to feel like an open, wide expanse - so we used photos that Isaiah took while working in Antarctica as the background and use a lot of white space around the content.

The static nature of most websites bores us, so we wanted to do something different and give the site life by animating movement between the different "pages" of content in the WWS site.

That said, this entire site is 1 page. Yep, everything you read is found in 1 page. It works on an iPhone or Android device just as well as on your computer (without flash)! Pretty sweet, eh?

A Little About Isaiah

Hi there! I'm Isaiah, the Chief Creative Visionary behind White Wonder Studios.

I love business. I can't get enough of it. I love success stories of small businesses taking an idea and making it a reality. I also love seeing our work help our clients achieve their business goals.

I've always had a knack for taking something and giving it the "glam" treatment that we use here at WWS. I love exploiting the full potential of a project. Good or bad - I love making it better.

We've taken print publications, websites, branding, and marketing campaigns to the next level with the work that we have produced. We take our work seriously - because your success is our success.

In my personal life, I'm a firefighter by profession & all-around tech-geek at my core. I love my career - it's taken me down to the bottom of the world, literally, and I make a difference every day.

I love shows like How It's Made, Build It Bigger, and Modern Marvels. I love understanding the world around me, and if I don't understand it - I'll tear it apart to reverse-engineer it.

GLAM: Del Sur Community Services Council

The Del Sur Community Services Council (CSC) contacted us to design a website for keeping residents informed of upcoming events.

The CSC wanted a website that they could self-update, would list events, allow residents to book reservations for events, allow visitors to signup for their newsletter, show image galleries from previous events, and represent the Del Sur community standards.

We built this website from the ground up on the Wordpress platform, coding to current web standards, adding a event listing functionality that is both extremely powerful and versatile.

Visitors can see events, location maps, download the event directly into their calendar, and RSVP to the event all within the site. Photos from recent events are integrated into the site and displayed beautifully.

Project Features

• Standards-compliant design with HTML, CSS, and PHP with jQuery/Javascript (No Flash)
• Wordpress content management platform
• Event listing and RSVP bookings (managed within the Wordpress structure)
• RSVP bookings exported to Excel spreadsheets
• Community/informational site design with simple site structure and ease of navigation

GLAM: Antarctic Fire Department

The Antarctic Fire Department project scope called for a informational website designed to be a recruitment tool for the department.

Clean, simple, straight-forward design with a focus on maintaining a corporate, professional elegance was the name of the game.

We built this website from the ground up, coding to current web standards and adding simple animations to the site to make it look great in all browsers. The site is viewable on all computers and devices.

The header features images from Antarctica that are different and relevant to each individual page of the site. The endcaps of these images in the header continually rotate through varous other photos of the Antarctic Fire Department.

The purpose of the site is clear on the main page, and the navigation clearly directs users to the information they are seeking.

The meat & potatoes of this project is the content. Elegant copywriting coupled with breathtaking photos paint a picture in the viewer's mind of the pristine beauty of their potential working environment, subtly calling to them to apply to work for the Antarctic Fire Department.

Project Features

• Standards-compliant HTML, CSS, and PHP with jQuery/Javascript (No Flash) animations
• Corporate style, informational site design with coloring to mimic the department's locale
• Ease of navigation, simple site structure

GLAM: AZ Heat Tanning

Our relationship with AZ Heat Tanning started with just a simple website re-design, but has since grown, and remained on-going for a variety of branding, graphic, print, and other design services.

The website prior to our work was 100% flash-based, which means that clients who didn't have flash on their computer, such as in work environments, or owners of Apple products using the iOS system would see nothing but a blank page. Effectively, the website was broken and inaccessible.

The scope of the project was to bring the website into compliance with modern design standards while implementing the modern, industrial feel of the salon into the site. Additionally, a content-management system and blog was also requested by AZ Heat Tanning.

The layout and coloration of the site are more modern, with the diamond plating background seen at the physical salon behind the reception counter. Rotating feature images give the visitor immediate, pertinent info regarding AZ Heat Tanning's services, and a partial gallery of salon images at the bottom of the page invite the visitor to view more of the physical salon.

Project Features

• Content Management System with Blog integration
• Gallery view of brick & mortar business location
