The Source, Evergreen MGA's client newsletter began digital distribution with their Fall 2009 issue.  A newsletter, of course, needs a place for content to land.  I worked with Evergreen MGA to build a site to house all of their newsletter content.  Built in Drupal, the site allows visitors to see article teasers which prompt members to enter their username and password to view full articles, search the archives, and access PDF versions of historical newsletters.

Evergreen MGA, a Maine-based campground insurance provider, has published a quarterly newsletter for just about as long as anyone can remember.  Recently, they decided to turn the paper newsletter they had been providing PDFs of via their website wild on the web.  I worked with them to design and engineer a custom built newsletter that drives traffic to a site dedicated to all of their newsletters in digital form.

Earlier this year I was approached by Steve Dostie at the Greater Androscoggin Humane Society to make some updates to their site.  Of course, I was happy to do anything I could to help their animals find a new home.

Over the course of the summer, I worked to completely reengineer the code that drives their site, bringing it up to modern standards with an SEO friendly XHTML / CSS presentation layer, a full content management system enabling GAHS staff to easily update the site, and RSS broadcast feeds for news and animal adoptions that are automatically generated when staff add new content.  The goal, of course, is to increase traffic and adoption rates for this fantastic facility.

Take a look and you might just find a new companion!
