    Minnesota electrical company receives new web design

    August 30th, 2010 - by Jeff Wagner

    Local Minnesota company, Electrical Builders Inc., came to JWI looking for a fresh web design to better represent the professionalism of their company. Not only did we come up with a great look but we helped improve their search engine optimization with better programming and visible content.

    One of the requests by EBI was to have a much more visible site with a lot more pictures of the different electrical services that they offer. With their being so many different areas of electrical construction having photos of the different services gives users & visitors a better idea of their capabilities.

    Both Electrical Builders and JWI are extremely happy with the new look and improved online presence.

    jQuery Effects, and pure Awesomeness

    April 1st, 2010 - by Jeff Wagner

    If you aren’t using jQuery in some form or fashion with the websites you’re developing then you are most certainly missing out on some very cool effects. I’m using jquery scripts primarily because there are so many cool transitions or effects that work on most popular web browsers.


    I’ve put together a great collection of jQuery links & demos to so many effects I garuntee that you’ll wanna tie into your websites.

    Take a look and check them out, if you know of any others out there let me know. I’d like to add more to my personal collection.

    Is your website WCAG 2.0 compliant?

    January 7th, 2010 - by Jeff Wagner

    Developers…have you been building your websites to be
    WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) 2.0 compliant? If you’re not sure then you need to look into it more carefully because many business owners could run the risk of not presenting an accessible website to users with disabilities.

    The W3C.org has but together a complete list of standards/guidelines that should help web developers make their websites 1.0 or 2.0 compliant. You are allowed to be 1.0 or 2.0 or both for those who want to be on the safe side, my advice would be to try to meet the 2.0 standards, they are the most recent guidelines and are more lenient in areas of time-based media and rich/interactive media.

    Why should you care about WCAG 2.0 compliance, well maybe you should ask the following companies about the consequences of not meeting the standards:

    Again, if you’re not sure if your website is meeting these standards then check out the W3C.org for more information.
