T324 constructs our web sites using pre-engineered Content Templates. These are software applets that have been developed specifically for various types of information — for example contact, forms, tabular data, etc.

  

They provide the following major benefits:

• Content is arranged and formatted in the best possible manner
• Editable fields allow you to make changes only where you should
• Overall layout and design is protected (you can't easily break it)
• Upgrades provide new features as standards and conventions change

 See Content Templates examples in greater detail.

As part of our maintenance program, we provide you with a customized version of Adobe/Macromedia Contribute that is compatible with our Content Templates. This self-editing software allows you to update your content directly. Our content modules are constructed to take full advantage of the features of this software, such as WYSIWYG text, PDF downloads, creating links, uploading images, team collaboration, document versioning (roll backs), and real-time publication.

The net result is that your site is always up-to-date, and looks and functions great.

Our technology comes with the highest standards of web development "built in". A few examples of what comes standards with a T324 web sites:

• Spiderable menus — a must for accessibility and search engine spidering
• Dyamic graphics — graphic titles that are created automatically
• Built-in Google maps — the best, latest way to help people find you
• Email address obfuscation — to thwart the spammers that comb your site
• Contact Form and Mailing List database — important for developing relationships
• Cross-browser compatibility — so that you site works everywhere
• CSS-based (little bit of jargon here!) — technology looking toward the future

While these nuts 'n bolts items may not mean much to you, taken together they make a big difference in having an professional, usable, maintainable, cost-effective site.

Our sites are built upon a robust modular architecture that supports and integrates all of our features. The content templates described above "plug in" to it. And, the standard features described above are woven through it. But perhaps, most importantly, our architecture allows us to offer a wide variety of web site applications that are pre-integrated to work with our web sites.
