Web Design Company Going Green… Literally

web design greenOur New York Web Design Company is located in the heart of the city, right by Penn Station and Madison Square Garden. Scattered inside New York City’s boroughs are neighborhoods, and scattered inside of them are districts: one-to-three block areas that sell one item almost exclusively. The Diamond District is up on 47th St. between 5th and 6th Ave. The Garment District is tucked below Times Square, in the high 30′s between 8th and 7th Ave. Noam Design itself sits in the midst of the fur district (but that’s probably whole other blog post).

Two blocks south of us is the plant district, which Noam Design is only just beginning to take advantage of. Plants in offices are nothing new, but how many tech-centric companies do you see trying to literally go green? (more…)

New York Web Design Company Going Green – part 2

web design company greenWeb design companies can make a difference on the planet. Every time we make a positive choice, we can make a huge difference not only on our immediate environment, but even on a much larger scale.

Let me give you one small example. When thinking about the recession and its consequences on some people, you might dab a few tears with a facial tissue. Or since you want to come to work even when you’re sick, you might use the tissues in the office to deal with a runny or stuffed-up nose. But the tissue you reach for can make a difference! The Natural Resources Defense Council has calculated that if every household in the United States replaced just one box of conventional facial tissues (175 count) with 100% recycled ones, together we could save 163,000 trees for our children’s world. Many of these trees would be valuable virgin wood. Saving forests helps reduce global warming. (more…)

New York Web Design Company Going Green

Web design greenWeb design is an industry that may not generate as much pollution as some other fields. However, since its inception, Noam Design has made continuous efforts to be a role model eco-friendly company, reusing material (such as bags), reducing waist, recycling, and more. All of our computers are Energy Star compliant, all of our paper is made out of 100% recycled paper, we use reusable mugs and ceramic cups instead of plastic cups, the furniture we use is environment friendly, etc. We try to make our offices and practices as friendly as possible for the planet.

We at Noam Design believe that U.S. businesses must play a key role in the protection of the environement. We have joined other environmental leaders in contributing to effective strategies for combating climate change and other effects of pollution.

From the very beginning, our team has been an eclectic mix of personalities and different backgrounds. But we all share a deep respect for the world outside of the virtual marketplace that we work in. And now, more than ever, we are concerned about the planet that we live in and what we can do to ensure a clean and beautiful future for the next generations.  Already having a strict attitude from the onset, Noam Design has decided to do more and to encourage our clients, partners, and competitors to do the same.

Web Design Ideas

web design ideasWeb design is a field that attracts many creative minds. But ideas represent only a fraction of all the factors that make a business successful… My position here at Noam Design involves scoping out clients’ projects to see if they could be a good fit for our company’s skills – from website design and development, through SEO, web promotion, web marketing, and business strategy. So I am in touch with hundreds of clients who contact us every month, and for the past 2 years I have heard it all! More than once we have been contacted to create a professional Ecommerce website with only a $2000 or $3000 budget! And not to mention how many times I have been asked to sign an extensive Non Disclosure Agreement before the clients would “reveal” the nature of their “innovative” project. That project being building a new Craigslist, combined with the features of MySpace, YouTube , and eBay – with a budget of only a few thousand dollars. As you can see, such information is highly sensitive and needs to be protected by a strict NDA! Though this type of scenario is very typical, it is not always the case and there are sometimes some truly innovative ideas that are worth considering. (more…)

From a Start-up Concept to a Cutting Edge Web App

unclip web designGreat news here at Noam Design: www.unclip.com has arrived! Unclip is a coupon code website that offers thousands discount coupon codes and promotions for hundreds of on-line stores.  As Unclip.com grows, more and more coupons and stores are being added. So unclip.com is a unique website where all the discount codes and coupons available across the internet can be found, searched, and used. Talk about enhancing our online shopping experience!

I highly recommend viewing the project’s case. Unclip is a unique website project and we developed new ways of designing a complex web applications.

Navigating the site is intuitive and browsing Unclip.com’s for discounts/promotions for specific stores or categories is easy.  With the powerful search function, you can search across the entire database for stores/coupons/promotions that match your criteria.

Another great feature of Unclip.com is the Firefox Extension.  When users install the Firefox Extension, a toolbar button is added to their Firefox browser.  Users will be alerted when they visit an on-line store that Unclip.com has coupons for.  Clicking on the toolbar button will display Unclip.com’s top three coupons for the on-line store that they are currently browsing.  From there, the user can choose to visit Unclip.com to view that store’s coupons in more detail.

The website also offers the ability to copy a store’s coupon code into the user’s clipboard. The user is then directed to open that store’s website where he/she can paste the coupon code into the appropriate section. Try it for yourself – it’s much easier to use the site than to explain how it works! (more…)

But being passionate about what we do, we were always committed to keep doing it! So each time we adjusted our strategy, changed our approach, and came out of the crisis stronger than ever. Our experiences made us what we are today – a web design company leading the US market, far ahead of its competitors.
