New Website for Lincolnshire Academy of Dance

We have been working with Lincolnshire academy of dance for 10 years and last week had the pleasure of launching a new and improved website that coincided with the start of their 23rd season .

The site is clean and totally responsive.

We put ourselves in the shoes of the parents and students using the website when thinking how to best organize the content, and came up with a tabbed system of presenting much of the information. This reduced bloat and scrolling of individual pages but pertinent information is easily and intuitively available.

For example all the dance classes have tabbed information on the dress code.

We are receiving many compliments on the website- thank you for everything!

WordPress.com Websites

WordPress.com websites ( as opposed to self hosted WordPress websites) are hugely popular. WordPress makes it very easy to get started and have a website up a running in no time at all, with essentially no technical know-how. Because of this they are an easy choice.

But getting a WordPress.com website to look and behave exactly as you want, can sometimes be a challenge when that technical knowledge or even just technical confidence is missing. The last thing you want to do is mess up your site!

I recently worked with Debbie Prather who was facing exactly this scenario with her WordPress.com website 742ILoveyou.com. She had a definite vision of how she wanted her site to look and perform and with the success of her articles there was a real need for her site to look more professional.

She reached out to me to help.

I actually forgot to screenshot the site before I started which is a shame but here is her site after I worked my magic.

I switched out the template being used to one that was more professional and added a branded header to the site which included a simple logo and tag line The home page was reconfigured to feature a grid view of the latest 6 blog posts. Follow buttons were added to the blog section and a new contact page added.

Overall the website is now much more appealing, easier to use and has the tools for readers to easily engage.

This is the review Debbie left for me on Google.

” I’m so very pleased with Indigo Image and the timely, professional way in which the improvements I requested were made to my website. I love the results and would highly recommend this company!”

If you have a WordPress.com website that needs taking up a notch I am happy to help. You can contact me HERE or call 636-795-7988

New Website for HEATJAC

We have been working with OperationHEATJAC, manufacturer of a unique heated garment for use in the O.R, for some years now. In that time they have extended their product offering to different markets. These changes have meant a slight restructuring of the business, which now operates under the name of HEATJAC with three divisions, OperationHEATJAC, HEATJAC for Motorsports and HEATJAC for Outdoors.

Time for a branding refresh!

We kicked off by tweaking the original company logo whose original design worked equally as well in a shortened version.

The website was also refreshed to better reflect the three division with an updated home page, new navigation and dedicated division shopping pages. The site was also moved to a different domain heatjac.com

New website for Heartstation.com

I have said it before but I will say it again, web redesign projects are so satisfying. It’s something about breathing new life into the old and worn, giving it shape, presence and function to do battle in today’s business environment.

I have been working with Heartstation, providers of AED cabinets, for some time now and was delighted when they hired me to revamp their website which dated back to 2006! The internet technology available since that time has come a long way.

The redesigned site encompasses a bright,open look and feel with call to actions throughout. It offers a completely responsive experience for the user whether they are visiting from their mobile or a desktop.

Take a look https://www.heartstation.com

and here is a little reminder of their previous site

A Small Business Brand

Creating an effective brand image for your small business can “up your game” and let you compete with the bigger players in whatever arena you operate.

Are your customers having the same experience however they interact with you, or are they faced with mixed messages a mishmash of graphics and just general confusion?

We have just completed a project for a Chicago based small business, Every Day Feels Great, who came to us looking to create a brand for their wellness business.

The project started with brainstorming a tag line which summed up what they want for their clients. Once the was established we worked it into a very simple text logo.

We then went on to design a business card, a simple one page website and graphics for Facebook.

Consistency is king here. The same color palette, imagery, graphics and voice ensure a flawless branded experience.

New Website for St Louis Celebrant

Lamira was looking to redesign the website for her Celebrant business, Your Ceremony, Your Way . It needed a fresh look and offer her visitors a better experience when accessing the site from a mobile device.

Redesign projects are always so satisfying, here is what the original site looked like.

Lamira was one happy client and here is what she shared on Google reviews

Zoe is an amazing website creator.
She listens – From my rambling, she was able to discern a theme, colors, font and images that resonated with my vision for my website.
She is patient – After the initial site was created, Zoe was open to any and all changes that I wanted.
She is kind – I never felt like the inexperienced techie that I am.
She is knowledgeable – Her recommendations, especially re: accepting payment and optimal search avenues were spot-on.
I highly recommend ZOE FEAST, website creator EXTRAORDINAIRE!!

Thanks Lamira for such a positive review, you were a pleasure to work with!

Indigo Image is Back in Chicago

You never really know where life is going to take you. When I relocated to Lancaster PA in January 2017 I never in a million years thought, that just a short 20 months later, I would be faced with the massive upheaval of relocating back to the Chicago area. To say I was sad to leave the tranquility and beauty of Lancaster, to the non stop hustle and bustle of the greater Chicago area, is an understatement. I was sad, really sad. But here I am, Indigo Image, the Chicago web and graphic design company is back in town, unpacked and ready for business!

New Web Site for Dog Bath in a Pack

Launched today is a brand new website for Dog Bath in a Pack. www.dogbathinapack.com

dog bath in a pack website

The site was designed to promote and sell a novel wipe to clean up dogs on the go. Mucky paws or worse can be easily cleaned up with these oversized wipes that come individually packaged.

We created a very appealing look feel for this site…who doesn’t love a sweet puppy and sprinkled the excellent product testimonials throughout. The order processing is carried out by bodywipecompany.com (who distribute the product) and to ensure consistency between the two site we used a similar color palette and layout. The coupon and chat functionality across both site is also identical.

A custom blog was also created for the site for product marketing.
