Time to update your look?

One of the most exciting aspects of web design is helping a business re-make an existing website.  It’s impressive what a “new coat of paint” can do for a tired site, and amazing what a full re-development will accomplish.

For instance, the Regional Office of Education had a very large website that was in need of an updated design and its content organized to make the site more user-friendly.  Superintendent Ray Scheiter and his staff had definite ideas about what they wanted and needed from the website, and our Web Team turned their concepts into a website with a contemporary design and enhanced back-end functionality.  You can see the completed project by clicking here:http://www.wc4.org.

When the Pepsi Little People’s Golf Championships needed a new look and quick turn-a-round on timely projects, Nan Ryan turned to ETC ComputerLand.  Of our collaboration, she said:

“We recently selected ETC ComputerLand to be the new web designers and host for the Pepsi Little People's Golf Championships website, and are delighted with what they have produced for us.  I find them extremely easy to work with.  The information I send them is posted to our site very promptly, and they are most eager to help in all ways.  I highly recommend ETC ComputerLand and their very qualified staff.”

Wireless Networking, is it right for your business?

Gathering data in areas where it’s not cost-effective or efficient to run wire is one of the main reasons we find our business customers using wireless technologies.

In industrial settings, warehouses and fabrication areas are often outside the wired network, and wireless allows users to gather data and access networked information without the cost of running new cable. 

Same thing with visitors – vendors or technicians – who need Internet access while on-site.  They’re coming to expect and need connectivity everywhere… and it’s costing you dollars when you can’t provide it.

With wireless technology you can meet the needs of your business while saving money – a perfect solution!  Contact our Sales department at 217-228-6180 to discover the ways ETC ComputerLand can make wireless technology work for your business.

Local Free Classifieds...

Iliamo.com, the “Tri-State's Online Marketplace,” offers free classifieds to individuals and free help wanted ads to businesses.  And that's just the beginning…

“We want our site to be a place to sell your couch, car or house, and even more” said Eric Thomas of ETC ComputerLand, operators of the website.  “We want Iliamo.com to be an online destination for the Tri-States, to be a true marketplace where buyers and sellers of all kinds connect.”

To that end, ETC has created a searchable database of local businesses, developed free classifieds software to make posting and viewing classified ads easy, and customized a bulletin board for clubs and other non-profits to post news about themselves. Together with an events calendar and other features, Iliamo.com (which stands for
IL linois – I ow A – M iss O uri) is fast becoming the marketplace it wants to be.
