About Design Works Internet

Design Works Internet began its operations in the early 90’s under the name of Design COMP, providing graphic and page design services to individuals, small business owners, and agencies in Erie County Ohio and the surrounding regions. By the mid 90’s, its services expanded to include the creation of web pages as well as other electronic documents. As this decade drew to a close, more and more of the work Design COMP did was connected to the Internet. The importance of web standards in code to ensure accessibility and usability quickly became evident as a means of controlling development costs.

With the turn of the millennium, however, new trends in expectations from a web site became evident. Business was demanding more from their sites than just informational or marketing solutions. There was a need for data to move seamlessly between a database housed on a web server into Intranet information systems with a strong need for security and privacy. Better communication outreach between one organization and its partners or suppliers was needed. The importance of search engine optimization (SEO) techniques to maintain one’s competitive advantage grew. At the same time, the ability to add or alter content on a web server at will without the need to know HTML coding grew in the face of rapid changes in ongoing strategies and operations. These are the kind of solutions expected from Design Works Internet today.
