Services
Our web services range from creating simple 'brochure' sites for
disseminating your company information, to designing complex applications
that can perform a multitude of custom functions you may need.Whether
enhancing your current site or starting from scratch, we incorporate
best practices to deliver a product that will exceed your expectations
and optimize your visitor's experience.
Design
- Graphics Design. From clean, simple and professional
to dynamic, flashy and interactive, we can enhance your current
'look' or create a new one that includes logo, color scheme, font
selection, photos, multimedia, illustration and animation. Full
services include art direction, copyfitting, layout and efficiency
methods such as cascading style sheets (CSS) and HTML
standards.
- Site architecture. This ensures that visitors
to your site find the information they want quickly and effortlessly.
This structural design involves things like minimizing the number
of 'clicks,' charting a logical navigation throughout the site
and adjusting to fit the user's window size. In addition to ease
of use, the consistent design platform of your site will assist
in meeting accessibility requirements and aid in search engine
recognition.
E-Commerce
- Pre-built modules. Built by our programming
staff, these proprietary ready-to-use modules can be customized
and integrated with your current site. Our Web Store
product is a fully enabled e-commerce application that includes
secure online transactions, shopping cart, inventory management,
product photo/description, shipping calculation and reporting
functionality. Our Mailing List Manager is a web-based
tool that allows you to efficiently manage multiple email lists
with features like text and HTML message format, bad address identification,
sender completion rates and easy address add/delete. We also have
modules for Calendar of Events; Site Search and
Press Release Manager.
Accessibility
- ADA Compliance / HTML Standards. Building accessible
websites has been an OnRamp standard practice since 1998. We recommend
that your site be built for web browser versions 4.0 and above
and meet the nationally recognized minimum compliancy specifications.

programmers specialize in taking your idea and making it a tangible
reality. We can write and develop proprietary applications, create
interfaces with existing software and design complex databases
customized for your use. Please see the variety of platforms and
development tools we use below.
Other Features
- Maintenance, updates and training. By the project
or by the hour, we can help you update and maintain your site
as needed. Additionally we provide training to help you perform
your own site updates using HTML editing software programs such
DreamWeaver and MS Front Page.
- Spam Eliminator. During the development process,
we incorporate special coding to block SPAM software programs
from having the ability to automatically pull various email addresses
listed within your site.
- Web Stats. If your site is hosted in our data

These statistics are gathered and displayed through a comprehensive
