Philadelphia Microsoft Certified PartnerWe recently received notification that we have been accepted once again as a Microsoft Certified Partner. This level of relationship brings the formal recognition from Microsoft of our skill in architecting, developing and managing Microsoft .NET web sites and web applications. So, we heartily thank the folks on our team with the nerdy tendencies for being so awesome as to continue this relationship.     

Being recognized as a Philadelphia Microsoft Certified Partner allows us access to exclusive software and tools prior to public release, as well as the vast support network maintained by Microsoft and its active, vibrant developer community. 

Direct Traffic seems like such a simple and easy concept to grasp: Direct Traffic is traffic that comes to your site without referral information. A common example would be a bookmark or direct type in of your URL. And that is where the problem comes in: it isn't that simple.

In reality, direct traffic is really equivalent to "you got me" traffic, as in, "Where did this visitor come from?" "Eh, you got me."

Launching 20 Web Sites at Once

In case you were wondering it's a bit of a logistical challenge. About a week or so ago, we launched a suite of web sites for our client Resource Investments, a leading multifamily real estate investment and management firm. Through their property management division, Allstate Management, they manage multi-family properties located in the Northeast, South and Midwest U.S.

We launched not just one web site, but in fact 20 of them at once. All sites utilize a common underlying content management solution and include extensive integration with back office applications that allow users to view available units, floor plans and even pay rent online. And if you count the mobile sites that each property has, it's actually closer to 40! Congrats to everyone who worked so hard to make this happen!
