Thefunkystork.com - New Dads and Family site OverallTheFunkyStork.com is a site for new Dads with articles and resources. We decided to go with a new CMS as the old one was custom made and didn't provided for future expansion of functionality. The new site is managed by an open-source CMS that will be easy to update content using a WSYWIG editor. The client wanted to continue to manage their advertising
campaigns using OpenAds advertising software and burstads.net rotating
square, banner, and tower ads. I integrated OpenAds into the layout and
the content, so that the client will continue to be able to use their
existing advertising software with the new CMS.
The site is fully compliant with all of the latest web standards
as the layout uses CSS templates. The sitemap can be exported as an XML
sitemap so that it can be used and validated by google.com. Ensuring
the site was fully SEO friendly was essential to the client, so all the
page names, site map, content, and METAtags are setup to maximize the
SEO potential of thefunkstork.com
A Flash slideshow on the home page and site pages rotates through
a series of images with accompanying description and link, that can all
be managed from the CMS backend.
Technology & DesignThe site uses an open-source CMS, which allows for additional features and content expandability as the site grows. Flash is used to displays photos while not overwhelming the content of the site. Content is updated using the WSYWIG editor of the CMS. Additionally, Fireworks MX, Dreamweaver MX, and Flash MX were used in creating the thefunkystork.com layouts and Flash photo presentation.
