We have been working hard here at MasseyMedia. After an extremely business holiday season where we were able to get some network installations competed on south Texas, we now have a few websites and a new service about to come online.

We also welcomed a few new customers towards the end of last year and have been working hard to provide them with the highest level of IT support and service in the area.

MasseyMedia is pleased to announce that we have completed the site refresh for SleepEd, LLC. This refresh included cleaing up the user interface, create a new online AJAX shopping cart system and integrated shipping information.

MasseyMedia also created a custom back-end admin interface that allows for automated shipping updates to be sent out to purchasers as well as an order tracking system. The new system has been built for future expansion in the SleepEd, LLC line of products.

MasseyMedia has completed a refresh of the Texas Forest Festival website. The new site has been updated with the new colors and branding for this years theme created by Jeanelle McCall of Lufkin Printing.

MasseyMedia is pleased to announce the launch of the PhyllisZulloDesigns.com website. We worked closely with Katherine Frank Creative to design and build this website for Phyllis Zullo – a brilliant custom jewelry designer. The site utilizes some “fancy” tabbing techniquies to allow the user to feel like they are browsing each piece.

The client requested simple PayPal integration with custom field configuration for the eCommerce component of the site. It was a pleasure workign with both Katherine Frank Creative and Phyllis as we hand-crafted this website.

After a few months of hard work, user testing, and long hours of coding and debugging, we are happy to announce the launch of the SkateliteExpress.com store. This stire was built from the ground up to provide a quick and easy method to purchase Skatelite, the ideal surface material for indoor or outdoor ramps.

We worked closely with Mike Mapp of RampTech, Inc. to create this site. The site uses Quickbooks Merchant Services to process online credit card orders. MasseyMedia also used the incredible API from ABF Freight to integrate order tracking and delivery notifications.

Visit the site and let us know what you think. And in the words of Mike Mapp and RampTech, “Skate Hard!”

We have been busy these past few months. Working hard to keep up with the amount of work coming in. We currently are working on:

Lufkin ISD
We have been working closely with the Lufkin ISD to create an online application to allow incoming students to apply for accelerated and dual-language programs. The system also includes an advanced administrative backend utilizing cutting-edge technologies to allow for quick and timely management of the applications. The system has been designed to be robut and to eliminate an abundance of paper from the application process. Automated emails, instant approval/review/decline options, and other features are packing this new system.   We will be launching this application around May 5th.

Ramptech – SkateliteExpress.com
Ramptech came to use a few months ago with a desire to integrate ABF Freight Shipping and Quickbooks Merchant Services into their existing website to promote Skatelite. We have since begun creating a separate SkateliteExpress.com website that focuses solely on the skatelite product. This system includes ABF Freight tracking, instant quotes, and document retrieval using ABF’s transparent links system. The system also allows for real-time credit card transactions on our PCI compliant servers. The backend allows Ramptech to keep track of customer order and sends automated emails to customers updating them on their order status.  The SkateliteExpress.com website will be active around May 15th.

VisitLufkin
The Lufkin CVB came to use a few weeks back and wanted to work on a redesign of the current VisitLufkin.com site. We have been working on an updated front page as well as a more streamlined navigation system. In addition, the site will receive a facelift and will be “cleaner” with less noise and more focus on content. Check out their blog!   You can look for the new facelift towards the end of May.

Gaming Industry Observer
We have been working hard to complete the redesign of the Gaming Industry Observer website.  MasseyMedia has worked closely with the Spectrum Gaming group to design, develop, and implement a new newsletter management system that helps better manage subscriptions for its industry leading publication – “Michael Pollock’s Gaming Industry Observer“.  The new system will allow customers to manage their subscription accounts online, renew, subscribe, and purchase single issues direct from the website.  This site will be launching around May 15th.

In addition to the above projects, we have been working diligently on a few others that are not quite ready to be announced. We will be posting more information about the projects in the future.

We are incredibly pleased to announced that HirstLLC.com has been launched and is now live on the web.  We had the priviledge of working closely with Hirst to integrate their provided design onto the web.  We used our expertise in SEO, web design and development to take a design provided by Hirst and to present it in an accessible web format.

We were extremely proud to have been chosen by Hirst as the web developer for their first website.  In addition to website services, MasseyMedia also is providing Web Hosting and Email services including hosting and spam protection.

We are VERY proud to announce that we have completed development for the Lufkin Convention and Visitors Bureau website.  It was a pleasure working with the LCVB in designing and creating a new and exciting website.  You can view all the details about this new website by visitingthe portfolio page.

This website was designed and written to integrate closely with the Lufkin / Angelina County Chamber of Commerce website.  Both sites share a common calendar, press release, and management system.  Information is share between the sites allowing for easy management and content sharing. 

MasseyMedia provided design, development, and continued hosting for this website.  This project involved numerous hours of customer web development, content creation, and a custom theme for the wordpress blog.  Be sure to check out the site at http://www.visitlufkin.com/ and read more about it here.
