On average, 91 million Web searches are performed on Google each day (comScore Media Metrix Search Engine Ratings). For Yahoo! the number is 60 million, while MSN handles 28 million searches. No matter how you slice it, that’s a lot of eyeballs. And that’s the good news. Unfortunately, there are more than 233 million websites competing for those visitors.
Which is why you don’t just need a site, you need a site that can hold its own in a very competitive online market. And that’s the kind of site Halsey Design delivers. We’re both a creative and a technical design company. From Web design to development to search engine optimization, we’ll make sure your site stands tall in a crowded market.
- Web Design – We know online users are easily frustrated and have little patience. That’s why at Halsey Design we create sites that are easy to navigate, uncluttered and inviting. We make sure our designs never get in the way of the client’s message or the customer’s search. A site’s underlying technology might be complex, but we believe the site should remain clean and simple.
- Web Development – Halsey Design is experienced in major coding languages and applications, including XHTML/CSS, Flash, Actionscript, Javascript, PHP, and mySQL, as well as graphics tools such as Illustrator and Photoshop. We create code using industry-compliant software, making sure our customers are never stuck with a non-standard solution. Our specialty is developing self-sufficient sites, ones that are easy for the client to maintain and update.
- SEO – A pretty site might be a beauty to behold but if you’re in business what you really want are serious site visitors — prospects that become customers. And the single best way to make sure you’re attracting the right visitors—and as many of them as possible—is to make your site is Search Engine Optimized (SEO). Halsey Design knows all the SEO tricks and techniques needed to ensure high search engine rankings.
- Maintenance Packages – For clients who do not wish to maintain and update their own site, we can do it for them. We offer a full maintenance package that includes monitoring the site’s performance, fixing problems and updating its content, as needed.
- Hosting – Although shared hosting is a popular and affordable server option for many businesses, some businesses find that the server they share performs poorly or sometimes not at all. To help solve this problem, Halsey Design offers Virtual Private Hosting, enabling clients to keep their data protected and maximize their uptime.

Let’s face it, the Information Age is visual and getting more so. The average American saw 560 different advertising messages each day in 1971 (Data Smog: Surviving the Information Glut by David Shenk). By 1997 it was over 3,000 messages per day. And today? According to The Newspaper Association of America, today we’re exposed to over 3,000 advertising messages before breakfast! So, how can you make sure your message stand out and gets noticed in such a crowded and noisy marketplace? One way is through good, solid, memorable graphic design. And here at Halsey Design, we’re proud to say good design is one of our daily specials.
- Graphic Design – Graphic design, when successful, is always more than the sum of its parts. It serves a business purpose and has a goal, whether you’re using eye-catching color, textured folders, or plenty of white space. Simply put, good graphic design gets the job done and that’s the kind Halsey Design believes in.
- Identity/logo Design – Your corporate identity is an extension of your business. It projects who you are on many levels and represents you in your absence. From the all-critical logo to the practical business card, Halsey Design can work closely with you to create a corporate identity that is both scalable and memorable.
- Package Design – When it comes to package design, seeing—and sometimes holding—is believing. Halsey Design creates simple and attractive packages that can evoke the desired emotions in consumers. We work closely with customers and their branding agencies to ensure we’re delivering the right package.
- Environmental Graphics – At Halsey Design, we’re experts at the bigger visuals, from outdoor billboards to indoor tradeshow booths. Our environmental graphics work includes notable projects with architectural firms as well as land developers.
