Today, creating a successful website is a skill in its own right. Not only do you need a great graphic design, you also have to consider usability, speed, mobile-friendliness, optimization, analytics, functionality...the list goes on and on. But at its core, a website serves a purpose for an audience. The purpose may vary, as will the audience, but the ultimate goal remains the same. Provide that audience with a successful online experience. And sometimes it’s easy to overlook some of the most basic requirements needed to do that.

2016 is almost over and let us just say...Wow. Wow for the good, wow for the bad, and wow for the ugly. And there was a lot of each everywhere you looked this year, that’s for sure.

Everyone has certain websites they frequent on a regular basis. Whether it’s used for banking, shopping, current events or something in between, we tend to have our favorites, and usually for a reason. Maybe it’s the website for your favorite brick-and-mortar store. Or maybe it’s the website for the news network you watch daily. Whatever it is, chances are you know there are other options out there, but you stick with your faves.

For more than 20 years WRIS Web Services has been building websites and web-based applications. We do a lot of other things, too, but the heart of our work is in the creation of beautiful, hard-working websites that make clients and their customers happy.

Your company partners with a web developer and the result is a website that exceeds your expectations. You and your customers couldn’t be happier.

Up until 1992, the world had to wait 4 years to experience the Olympics. Both the Summer and Winter Games were held in the same calendar year. Then the decision was made to begin alternating the games so that we only had to wait 2 years between games. So in 1992, both games were held, then in ‘94 just the Winter, ‘96 just the Summer, ‘98 the Winter, ‘00 the Summer, and etc.
