Three New Websites Launch!

2009

Florida to Georgia to Alabama to Mississippi back to Alabama to Tennessee to Georgia to South Carolina to North Carolina. Whew!

I’ve been away from Roatan for just over three weeks and my head is still spinning! I’ve taken very little time to write about my ridiculous misadventures in the meantime… I’ll do my best to hammer out some of the more amusing episodes from my trip in the next days, but for now I think my tired eyes are about squirt blood all over my Mac.

Why? Because I’ve also been busy cranking out three new websites for Roatan:

Roatan Marine Park

Roatan Marine Park
URL: http://www.roatanmarinepark.com
Version: 2.0
Created: August 2009
Last Version: October 2009
Engine: WordPress 2.8 and TIREngine 0.80
Features: graphic design, layout design, PHP/mySQL backend, content management system, Google Maps, photo galleries, RSS news feed, online reporting system, PayPal donations

The new Roatan Marine Park website is be the premier showcase for my web design. My first full site other than TheScubaGeek.com to run on the merged WordPress-TIREngine code base, Roatan Marine Park set the new standard for my web development. Featuring an interactive Google Map of every dive site on Roatan, real-time reporting for lionfish sightings and damanged moorings, PDF newsletters, multiple news feeds, and fantastic underwater photography, this collaborative project aims to promote awareness and raise donations for this worthy non-profit organization.


Bite on the Beach

URL: http://www.biteonthebeach.com
Version: 2.0
Created: October 2009
Last Version: October 2009
Engine: WordPress 2.8 and TIREngine 0.80
Features: graphic design, layout design, PHP/mySQL backend, content management system, photo galleries

Bite on the Beach is a cool bar and restaurant located on the northernmost tip of Roatan’s beautiful West Bay beach. Unfortunately, their old website didn’t capture their fun and funky atmosphere, so I worked with them to create a new graphic layout and port their content into a content management system. The moray eel in the logo isn’t there just by chance; several massive green morays live around the restaurant’s rocky shore where they feast on leftover fish scraps.


Roatan Meridian at Lighthouse Point

URL: http://www.roatanmeridian.com
Version: 2.0
Created: September 2009
Last Version: October 2009
Engine: WordPress 2.8 and TIREngine 0.80
Features: graphic design, layout design, PHP/mySQL backend, content management system, photo galleries, custom Flash design

Roatan Meridian at Lighthouse Point features some of the most beautiful villas and condos on Roatan and the only place where you can watch both the sunrise and sunset from your property. Their website was in need some some graphical upgrades and a content management system. I worked with Treasure Island Reality to update their look and migrate their site content over to the CMS system.
