Jared Moss at Best Gun Dogs wanted to create a blog to chronicle his gun dog training and hunting exploits. He wanted the ability to add photos and posts on his own but still have a custom website look and feel that personified his business and training methods. He was happy with the outcoming a few months ago and has been dog blogging ever since. His hunting dog training business has tripled in that time and I can say he is one happy customer. Google likes him.

Gun Dog Names was a project brought to me by a previous customer. He had the idea to create a wordpress driven website where users were able to submit photos of their hunting dogs. The site is used to help new hunting dog owners or puppy buyers choose a name for their new best friend. By incorporating a couple of cool wordpress plugins we were able to allow visitors to submit their own images and dog names.
Ashby Kennels was a recent project for a friend of mine who is raising and training english pointers. Rob is a pretty good designer and wanted to create his own header image and it was fun to help him build a website using wordpress. Rob found a very cool image gallery plugin that I was able to install for him to showcase his second hobby – outdoor photography. We also incorporated the Google Adsense ads so he could profit from his web traffic.
Wolf Creek gun dog training is a website for getting new leads and customers for a dog training business. The owner had a bad experience with a previous web designer and came to me through a referral. I was able to help him focus his ideas and domain name on a specific set of keyword phrases to help drive targeted Google traffic to his site. Using wordpress as the software platform and a custom wordpress theme we were able to create and launch a custom website in a very short period of time.
Our friend Bob Buckley at Range View Kennels has always had a nice website. He was active in updating his web content every week and did a great job with adding pictures and interacting with his customers. His problem was that his website was dated and old-school. We helped him install a wordpress theme and customize it to fits his needs. He already had a logo and knew what color schemes he liked. It was fairly easy to help him upgrade his existing website and optimize it for the search engines. We were also able to incorporate his YouTube videos into the website design.
I called Chad Holman back in 2009 and asked him if he wanted a website to showcase his amazing brittany dogs. He was a little tentative at first until I told him he would get a lot more business by being online. He finally agreed to let me build it for him and maintain it. He is getting better at sending me pictures and updates for the site. He is already getting a lot of emails and phone calls from the new website about his champion american brittany dogs. Chad even has an email address now and is getting more high tech every day.
Since 2005 this hunting dog training blog has been online and using a wordpress blog system. This is my training blog that shares my experiences with others with similar interests. I use it as an online journal of my hunting trips and dog training mistakes. Even though the blog is just a hobby for me, I get several emails a month asking me dog training questions. It has been fun to maintain this blog and share with others. It does very well in Google for many gun dog training related keywords and phrases.
Annabella brittany kennels is my personal website for my little home grown american brittany hunting dogs. We had our first litter of puppies and I was able to get plenty of business from my kennel website.
LK farms was a project I did for a local farmer who makes his living selling and producing poultry and fresh produce. The site came together pretty well and we found a nice wordpress plugin for him to manage and send email newsletters to his customers. Although most of this website is static, it is still built on the wordpress blog software.
My friend asked me to help his daughter in marketing her homemade hair clips online. I had her choose a wordpress theme that she liked for a color scheme and basic layout. Then I customized it to work with her flower hair clips business. They couldn’t decide if they should market the product to dealers and stores or to the public. They had a good product and a good idea and we came up with a nice presentation for the internet. WordPress is a great tool for building custom websites and stores online.
