Telling the Story of Your Business
What differentiates Citizen Websites is our ability to tell a story.
It’s a combination of beautiful
photography and concise language, forward-thinking design and a background in advertising. It’s the accumulated experience of publishing dozens of websites for business and one of the leading
hyperlocals in the nation.
Every business is unique, and we want to help you tell your story.
Design
At Citizen Websites, we use leading designers from around the world for cutting edge styles that range from buttoned down to wide-open.
We adapt these styles – also called themes – to be uniquely suited to the needs of each client.
WordPress + Blogging
All of our WordPress websites have the potential to become publishing platforms for a business or organization.
The best way to get the attention of search engines is to publish original content on a regular basis. We do contract blogging for business as well as corporate training.
Open Source
Since 2006, we’ve been developing open source websites with Linux, WordPress, PHP, MySQL, CSS, HTML, Ajax, Javascript and other leading applications.
Our adherence to open source means we can develop websites more cost-effectively than is possible with licensed systems. Leading websites around the world including Flickr, YouTube, Harvard Business Review and The New York Times use open source-ware.
Ad Platform
If you blog (or we do it for you), you will get traffic. For many clients, this opens up the possibility of including ad space on the website.
We run our own ad platform (Open X) and can help you manage your own closed advertising delivery system. No ads from Google or Yahoo (unless you want them) – only ads you choose to run on your site. Perfect or organizations, associations and non-profits.
Our ad platform has delivered more than 2,000,000 impressions since 2007.
Maps, Calendars and More
We can integrate and manage all the most popular social apps including Facebook, Twitter, Google Calendar, Maps, AdWords, Analytics, YouTube, LinkedIn, Tumblr and more.
