Juvanex Website goes Malay
Written by admin on July 4, 2008 – 4:05 pm
Since its launch last year, Juvanex has changed the way you can detox your body for good health.
Its 7-day detox program has proven a hit with busy and health-conscious people on the move. Just as the product has taken off in this short time span, the Juvanex website has grown and now spots a Chinese and Bahasa Malaysia version.
Like the original website, there were some minor challenges in this design.

What is Technorati Authority?
Written by admin on July 1, 2008 – 7:34 pm
Most of us know what Alexa Ranking is. However a somewhat more mysterious concept is Technorati Authority and Technorati Ranking.
Basically Technorati is one of the web’s leading portals for finding blogs and blog articles. Technorati has its own method of ranking blogs and the two important concepts are:
1. Technorati Authority
Higher is Better
Technorati Authority is the number of blogs which link to your blog in the last 6 months. Therefore the higher the number of incoming links, the better it is for you.
Note that Technorati measures the number of blogs rather than the number of links. If a blog links to you many times it still counts as 1 vote. But a new link (even from the same blog) means that the vote will last another 180 days.
Another indicator, the Technorati Top 100 shows the most popular 100 blogs based on Technorati Authority. The No 1 blog is the one with the most other distinct blogs linking to it in the last 6 months.

Minor Renovation for Amberhill website
Written by admin on June 25, 2008 – 1:21 pm
Amberhill Homes are taking luxury and exclusivity to a new level in Taman Melawati. The website was originally designed by another company and our client felt it was time to do a little renovation.
While maintaining the original design framework to save cost, our main focus was on improving the readability of the website content. Hence the home page content was sharpened and the website navigation changed to accomodate for monthly newsletters which our client intends to publish.
Once again it was a satisfying experience knowing that our client now has control of their website.

The Prime Goes Live
Written by admin on June 13, 2008 – 12:24 pm
Posted in Health/Beauty, Portfolio
The Prime is a range of health supplements which prevents age-related problems and promotes your well-being into your prime years of life.
Interestingly this website was originally designed by another web designer, however our client decided to switch to Netallianz after the concept was completed by the previous designer.
So our job was slightly easier since some of the design foundation were used in developing the final concept. Nonetheless the concept was substantially fine-tuned and the website was completed re-coded to produce the end product as you see it.
In terms of timing, The Prime commissioned us to do this website in December 2007, but due to product launch priorities, Read more »

Do more with CSS Design
Written by admin on April 22, 2008 – 4:54 pm
CSS or Cascading Style Sheet is a growing trend in web design. By using CSS, you can do away with more traditional web design techniques (eg use of tables) and create a website which is cleaner in coding and purer in content.
Common elements that are usually included in CSS files include:- Navigation bar look & feel
- Dimensions and margins of the various sections of a web page
- Background and text colors
- Headers and footers
CSS techniques have developed rapidly over the years, nowadays it is quite common for web designers to minimize graphic files and use CSS to create things such as rounded corners, lines, shades and image transparencies. Image bubbles such as the one below is an example.
CSS and Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
CSS allows you to place code-heavy elements in a single file. To include those elements in your web pages, you can simply reference to the CSS file with a single line of code.By doing this, your web content is cleaner and this helps search engines crawl your site more easily.
WordPress (the world’s most popular blogging application) uses CSS substantially. This is probably one of the reasons why it is very search engine friendly.

Posted in Announcements, Portfolio, TechnologyAfter 3 years, we decided it was time for our web hosting site to get a new look.
The old website has served us well. But instead of remaining in our comfort zone, we thought that it would help users if we streamlined the navigation.
Little did we know what started out as a streamlining excercise ended up as a total revamp!
Ideas were brainstormed, things were moved around and we played a bit with colors too. So this is the result…
Check out our web hosting packages starting from RM150 which represents top value for your dollar. We are now working on web templates and internet marketing tools which will be available to all customers from May-08 onwards.

Horizontal Scrolling Websites
Written by admin on April 9, 2008 – 7:13 pm
Web design sometimes involves thinking out-of-the-box.
Last year we were involved in an ecommerce website where our client sought to introduce a horizontal scrolling concept to its product range.
Truly something different! Just think about it….out of fifty websites you visit, how many horizontal scrolling websites do you come across?
We were at a loss as to why we had to do this, apart from the novelty factor of course!
Anyway just a couple of days ago, we came across The Horizontal Way – a collection of websites which use the horizontal scrolling concept.
Eminence Suit is what we would call a partially Horizontal Scrolling site. In comparison, the sites featured in The Horizontal Way are more hard-core and take horizontal scrolling to a new level. If you ever wanted to design such a site, it’s a good reference point.

HTTrack Website Copier is a Gem
Written by admin on April 5, 2008 – 12:46 am
Ever wondered how you can download an entire website and run it locally on your PC?
Well, you can save it page by page (using File - Save As in your browser) and then rebuild it by changing the navigation links so that all the web pages are correctly linked. Those of you who have tried this will know how hard it is!
Or you can make life easy for yourself and use HT Track, a really cool software which has been around for a couple of years now.
HTTrack works on most websites and can even download Flash SWF files. It is able to follow web links and hence create a correct path for navigating the site after downloading it to your PC.
