We were so pleased to create a bright, user-friendly website for Sparkling Clean, a small business that supports ecologically responsible domestic cleaners. We built the site in Drupal, a modern Content Management System that allows the site's owner to easily update and customize content herself. Sparkling Clean refers cleaners who use non-toxic cleaning products rather than toxic chemicals....
You can't afford not to update to a mobile friendly site.
"All I wanted to do was order a pizza, and I couldn't find the phone number." said T324's owner David Daniels. He was hoping to call directly to the Albany location of a popular local pizza company, and when he loaded the company's site on his phone, he couldn't find it.
