Website design is both an art and a science, Planet Telex works hard to ensure that not only does your website provide a great first impression but a lasting impression. Our goal is to not simply to create a website, but to create a masterpiece.

This involves working with you to not only create an image that fits your business but keeps a visitor coming back. This means attention to detail, usability, and most importantly keeping your website simple and functional.

An artist requires a variety of tools to implement his/her vision. The same is true when designing a website.

Websites come in all shapes and sizes, all require the basic building blocks of HTML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). But in addition to these skills your website might require software interface design, interesting photography to capture a visitors attention, the skills of a graphic artist or perhaps a whole different building block like XAML. Planet Telex applies the necessary tools required to create interesting and aesthetically pleasing website designs.

Whether you are interested in a single static page or a complex web-based application, Planet Telex works with the solutions that suit your needs.

A website is a living thing and requires maintenance to be most effective. A website is only its best when it can grow with the needs of your business. Planet Telex wants to make sure you can update your website when you need to, not when a web developer or webmaster can get to it.

We can implement your new site with the content management system of your choice, or we can recommend one based on your needs. Recent systems we have worked with and had success with are DotNetNuke (DNN), Joomla!, SquareSpace, and WordPress.

What about more complex web-based applications or a customized e-commerce site? We provide customized development using the right tools to get just what you want. Our portfolio includes working with ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, SharePoint, Grails, and Flash/Flex to provide custom web application development.

Planet Telex provides high quality development for our clients. Whether you have in house web developers or none, we have the resources and skills to get things done. The Planet Telex team includes systems architects and senior-level developers to help you get things done the right way.

Our philosophy is to provide you with quality programming using the latest and greatest, but most appropriate technology available for your project. In our experience, real world solutions involve more than one programming language or technology.

We have experience writing C#, Visual Basic, PHP, Java, and Ruby. We have advanced skills using Javascript libraries such as jQuery and Dojo, or Adobe Actionscript to provide rich user interfaces. We are adept at both test-driven and agile development methodologies, but have been exposed to numerous variations on development cycles.

Planet Telex recently acquired a Microsoft Surface computer and have started developing Window Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications on it.

Having a website is the first step of a greater online goal. The second step is visibility. In order to achieve visibility every website needs a strategy, let Planet Telex help you with yours.

What is strategy? A website is not a good marketing tool unless have an organized goal for that website. Who is your audience? Can they find the information they are looking for? Do you want someone to purchase something from your site? Do you want someone to register on your site? Do you have the right tools in place to achieve your marketing goal?

One of those tools is optimization. You have heard terms like Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Website Analytics, Usability Studies or Analysis. These are some of the tools used to help optimize your site but there are also things like A/B or multivariate testing, minification, and compression.

When asked to consult, design, implement, or develop a website, Planet Telex is always thinking about your web strategy. If you do not have one, we are happy to sit down with you and discuss possible strategies to help you achieve your website goals.

You have the data, put it to use. You need someone with the tools and knowledge to integrate your data and present in your preferred format or application or format. Data can be stored and accessed in many ways. We are adept in using and architecting relational databases, and accessing them using SQL, LINQ, and nHibernate.

We also have expertise in writing web services using Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) and SOAP, as well as building RESTful web services.

Modern systems are usually comprised of many third-party service providers, and we can provide the necessary systems integration. When doing so, it is often necessary to manipulate and transform the data, which we can do using XML and XSLT.

Website design is both an art and a science; Planet Telex works hard to ensure that not only does your website provide a great first impression but a lasting impression.

It is important that the first impression not only looks good, but performs well. To help you achieve the highest degree of quality, Planet Telex reviews and tests your website in the following browsers: Internet Explorer 6-8, Firefox 2-3.5, Safari 3-4, Chrome 1-3, Opera 9-10, and Konqueror on Windows, Mac, and Linux systems. By doing this we verify that your site will look good for over 99.2% of all internet users.

Part of quality assurance is also being W3C standards compliant. Being standards compliant can reduce maintenance costs and increase interoperability with other systems. It is also important to build software that is accessible by disabled users.

Planet Telex helps you find bugs before your clients or users do. We can provide unit testing, continuous integration, build management using NANT, and source code management services to keep your project running well. We also have advanced tools to profile processor and memory usage that we can use to tune up your app's performance.
