Recent Projects: HidekiTakahashi.com

Awhile back I began working on a microsite for a new client of mine, Hideki Takahashi. Mr. Takahashi is a Japanese artist creating and residing in Brooklyn, NY. His work is truly eclectic and one of a kind. His site is really coming along quite well. There were a few hurdles we had to conquer to get this site going. Some of which include; design, functionality, and of course cost.

For the design, Mr. Takahashi specifically wanted and needed something simple and succinct. We found a great template to work with and I began to alter the coding a bit to be somewhat more conducive to Mr. Takahashi’s needs. For the functionality, we will be implementing a shopping cart and interactive commenting that integrates with popular Social Media & Social Networking sites such as; Facebook & Twitter. I’m not your typical website or microsite builder, in the sense that I build everything from scratch and give the customer a finished product. To cut down on the overall costs for my sites, I actually work with my clients on a one-to-one basis, teaching them how to operate their own site. This empowers them to take charge of their online presence and really understand how and why their website functions in a certain capacity.

For Mr. Takahashi, I’ve done just that. I’ve been teaching him how to operate his own WordPress site. He’s been slowly, yet steadily creating content that will be added to his website. He really is getting the hang of how to create, edit, add media, etc. to a post. Soon, he will be learning great tips on how to market his website using social media & social networking sites. His transformation from literally knowing nothing about blogging to actually blogging about his art and ideas has been quite amazing to see. As an Internet Marketing Consultant & Social Media Consultant, I have really changed the way Mr. Takahashi thinks about not only the Web and his place within that context, but also his own artwork and future possibilities.

Nice job Hideki! I’m proud of you and your efforts and I’m glad to see that everything is starting to fall into place.

I’m really looking forward to seeing what he will add next!
