The new design for The Fuzzy Peach, Wilmington, North Carolina’s premiere frozen yogurt bar, went live last night.  The new resembles the eatery itself with clean, open spaces.  The first thing you’ll notice on the homepage is a auto-scrolling 3D slideshow that lets you pause on one image or go back or forward to the next image, all shot by noted photographer Millie Holloman.

Social networking is prominent on the new design with prominent Facebook and Twitter icons at the top of each page as well as a Facebook plugin beneath the fold on the homepage.

You’ll notice as you go from one page to the next that the pages slide in transition instead of loading separately (with the exception of the store link, which goes off-site).  The location page sports an embedded interactive Google map.

We’re proud to have created the new Fuzzy Peach website.  The local yogurt bar that has been the talk of Wilmington now has a website to match its hype.

A few months ago we finished a redesign for attydc.com and started a renewed SEO push as well as a social networking campaign.  I was talking to a different attorney (located in a different state from the existing client) today who mentioned that she was needing to redesign her website and do some search engine optimization.  I sent her the following stats information about attydc.com’s Google ranking.  These are the search terms followed by the site’s ranking for that term.

• Wilmington NC Lawyer (#1)
• Brunswick County NC Lawyer (#5)
• Pender County NC Lawyer (#9)
• Bolivia NC Lawyer (#1)
• Burgaw NC Lawyer (#1)
• Carolina Beach NC Lawyer (#4)
• Caswell Beach NC Lawyer (#3)
• Hampstead NC Lawyer (#3)
• Holden Beach NC Lawyer (#1 and 2)
• Kure Beach NC Lawyer (#4)
• Leland NC Lawyer (#3 and 4)
• Oak Island NC Lawyer (#6)
• Ocean Isle NC Lawyer (#4)
• Supply NC Lawyer (#3)
• Surf City NC Lawyer (#1)
• Sunset Beach NC Lawyer (#5 and 6)
• Topsail Island NC Lawyer (#1 and 2)
• Wilmington Beach NC Lawyer (#1 and 2)
• Wrightsville Beach NC Lawyer (#1)

In a lot of the cases where attydc.com is not the #1, there are usually directory websites (as opposed to a direct competitors) ranked above them.  This doesn’t even factor in that there are 12 or 13 practice area pages for each of the above locations that are also optimized; I just don’t have the time to look up and report over 225 search engine results.

High ranking doesn’t mean much if you’re not gaining extra traffic, but looking at the stat reports I noticed that visits and unique visits are both up about 49% from when we retooled the SEO and started the social networking.  I’ve been told by the client that they’ve definitely noticed an increase in phone calls as well.
