We design websites using HTML, CSS, PHP, and Flash, and can quote prices for any budget. Cicero Designs also creates websites using Web 2.0 open source platforms, and can provide clients with instructions on how they can easily update their pages.
Our approach is to collaborate with the site owner and work towards getting them the website that works for them, in both functionality and design. The collaborative effort creates more challenges, but that ends up in a better end product. We listen to the client discuss their business, discuss their customers, and discuss what they hope the website will accomplish.
We also maintain and administer websites for some clients, or provide instruction & support so they can do it themselves. In the 21st Century, websites are more than just static bulletin boards – they need to be dynamic, evolving, and flexible.

A multi-user website can be a website designed for multiple administrators to access — thereby spreading the work load and eventually building a deep & dynamic website.
