“Katharine was a great partner in designing and building a website for my consulting business that reflected my personal and professional persona. She stayed on budget and walked me through each step so that we designed something that was even better than I imagined in the beginning. In the end it was a synergy between us in the design and output. She patiently navigated my village of friends and family with their inputs and advice. Katharine inspired me to make my website more targeted for reader and customer engagement. Highly recommend.”
First page on Google!
Henry Boxer Director, Henry Boxer Gallery
“I really can’t say how pleased I am with the splendid update. All my artists now come up on google, and the various other search engines, invariably on their first page, and this has made a huge positive impact on sales and inquiries, including many from new serious collectors, worldwide. The site is now so easy to use, it’s clean, clear, concise and most importantly, easy to negotiate – I love it! Thank you, great job!!”
Substantially increased online sales
Tony Fisher Indigo Arts Gallery
“Oculeum transferred thousands of individual artworks, artists’ biographies, photographs and press information to my new site. I was very pleased that Katharine was able to accomplish this with a great deal of patience and a minimum of disruption to an ongoing business, and complete the work in time for the holiday season. We have maintained our previously good search results while substantially increasing our online sales.”
Thoughtful, well-designed and functional
Rebecca Leib Content Marketing Guru
“Katharine quickly, efficiently and with great skill built a professional website for me that’s thoughtful, well-designed and functional. Not only is she a joy to work with, but she also errs on the side of over-communication, which is a good thing. No detail is too small to be overlooked, and all her suggestions are excellent. By mid-project, I was already recommending her services to colleagues.”
Great communication
Ian Lendler Author
“Working with Katharine has been a dream. She works fast, designs sites with style, and is able to explain the tech mumbo-jumbo clearly to even a technophobe like me. Big thumbs-up.”
Donations up 25%
Mavis Cain President, Friends of the Old Croton Aqueduct Designer
“Not only have we received glowing praise for the organization and look of the website, it has increased our membership by 10%. More important, donations have gone up 25% and this is significant in a tight economy. Participation in events is up too!”
Unique, stylish and zippy
Harold Schechter Author
“Oculeum created a unique, stylish and zippy author website. Oculeum also made sure that the site climbed to the top in search engine rankings.”
