The Situation: Our client came to us with two websites of about 30 pages each that were designed several years ago by another design firm. In need of care and repair, these sites had not been updated in at least two years. Rich in content, cornerstonekids.com and kidstopkids.com were designed as both an informational resource for current and prospective parents and as a marketing tool.

Our Mission: To go over both sites with a "fine tooth comb", fixing broken links, browser incompatibilities and other inconsistencies and flaws, both technical and aesthetic. In addition, to update several pages/site monthly, pages that include calendars, newsletters, menus and activity schedules for toddlers and preschoolers. To gradually, on an as-needed basis, add new pages. The new pages must be a fine balance of old and new, retaining the flavor of the existing site, while incorporating more contemporary design solutions, thus providing flair and visual interest.

Our Solution: Painted Pages began by repairing the obvious flaws in both sites. In addition, in an effort to keep future maintenance costs down, we cleaned up the code in the pages that needed monthly maintenance. Now, making those updates takes a small fraction of the time and with superior results. New pages were added periodically with plans for future additions, including new photos.

The Result: Improved communication with grateful parents is one result. Parents now have an immediate way to access newsletters, menus, special events and much more. The sites also serve as an effective marketing tool. Cornerstone and Kidstop are now making a great impression on those potential families searching for an early childhood educational experience for their children.
