Sweet Light Studios Website Facelift
Sweet Light Studios Website Facelift
The Sweet Light Studios website needed a website facelift badly, so with the help of my Sweetheart we gave it one.
The Website Facelift addresses Mobile Devices
A while ago, some of the search engines started reporting that the Sweet Light Studios website was not optimized for mobile devices. So, we took a look at the site on my cell phone and found we needed to swipe horizontally and well as vertically. Some of the buttons were also too small to press!
http:\\ vs https:\\issues
The browsers also started giving us warnings that the website wasn't safe to browse, with scary icons and text. We would never want anyone to feel uncomfortable looking at the site -- scary! So, we researched it a little and found out that any websites that are http: instead of https: will cause the browsers to give stronger and stronger warnings over time. Good to know now!
Wordpress Blog and Shopify integration.
The website also contained a Wordpress Blog as a sub-domain. This caused look and feel to change dramatically when navigating to the blog pages. Also, this wasn't very good for SEO it turns out, because a subdomain is seen by the browsers as being on a different website. Knowing from experience that most purchasing decisions are emotional, we wanted to be sure to give prospective customers a way to "Buy Now" at the press of a button. Therefor, he decided we needed to integrate Wordpress and Shopify within the website, rather than the other way around. Now you can read my blog and shop all in one place!
Here is a trailer about all the exciting changes you can see for yourself:
I think it's pretty darn cool and get excited every time I hear the music!
React to the rescue.
Because of the philosophy changed in programing from computer first to mobile first, now new technologies have emerged. The cutting edge technology is React, Redux, Bootstrap, so that is what we decided to implement -- well, he implemented it, I just tried to help where I could ;) And it turned out AWESOME!!!!
