Basic CSS3 to Customize your WordPress Theme

With the increasing browser compatibility of CSS3, additional customization of websites is in the reach of most anyone (Even a Monkey can do it, according to Nikos Advertizopoulos …). Tonight we will start with a series of calls to become familiar with the possibilities arising from the use of CSS3 on WordPress to improve typography and font styles.

You may follow the progress of the work at the Ycademy Demo Site which features the Semiomantics XO Theme.

Looking forward to seeing you on YorgoLive tonight.

Transparent WordPress Custom Theme

Playing with the XO Theme Version 3.3.x from Semiomantics and CSS3, I notice how easy it is for most anyone to customize the XO Theme by adding transparencies and other CSS3 elements. Here below you find some drafts. You may visit the test site from : http://globalthebrand.com.

On the test site we use the Semiomantics Widgets and Theme Handler plug-in as well as a modified Supersized plug-in; the latter needs some more work to make it more responsive. Also we use TubePress which behaves fine also on mobile.

The Theme is Semiomantics XO with 3 custom child-themes; any theme can be associated with any page, post, category, tag or sidebar.

Portraits of Africa 2012 on Google

Time again to monitor and check the performance of our new WP based Semiomantics XO 2012 Script on search engines.

Here’s a screenshot of yesterday’s post “Portraits of Africa 2012″ on Google – have a look! Positions 1, 2, 3 and 6 ahead of 10,800,000 search returns – YEBO GOGO!

Portraits of Africa 2012 on Google

When looking up “Portraits of Africa 2012″ on Google, I also checked how the images in my article were ranked – here’s the detail of the screenshot showing the Image of a “Young African Girl” on position one, followed by the Image of a “Young African Boy” on position 4… and a small ad I created ages ago peeking at us on position 2. All of them ahead of our South African presidents… just too funny! The young generation is on the move!

Portrait of Africa Images

It becomes even more intrigueing when we look up “Portrait of Africa Images” on Google and find these young faces of Africa featuring amongst some really classy photography! And again… the random positioning is just too weird… for those who read this and understand what I mean! Welcome to the future :)

Fact is, that with the increasing importance of images and media on the Internet – and with this for our website development – … and people preferring to look at something for quick grasping of the contents rather than reading long time-consuming – and even worse: thought-provoking -  texts… that the correct tagging and classification of photos and images becomes more important. Here as with any post what counts is to be found on Google – Google Top 10 that is. Noone else looks further…

Congratulations to our young friends who’ve made it to the top ranks and find themselves in interesting and attractive company! There will be more….

Portraits of Africa 2012 – untouched… straight from my simple NIKON Coolpix P90 … just the magic of a Young African Girl.

Although the black & white version adds a specific note, I preferred to show the soft gold tones of the skin.

Who is Cy Ford

Cy (Cyril) Ford is a Painter living and working in Notting Hill, UK, who has decided to share his work online. His new WP Best Gallery has been set up by Semiomantics. Felisa Ryan, will take care of the content management.

The new site at cyford.com is up and running and already indexed by Google.

Portraits of Africa

Within my photo series “Portraits of Africa” here is the image of a young African boy.

Portraits of Africa

I just love Black & White Photography and how it adds depth to a picture, especially portraits and expressive faces.

“Portraits of Africa” are shot on a simple NIKON Coolpix P90 with a minimum of post-editing, ideally nothing at all.

CyFord.com goes live

It’s done! We have loaded the first draft of Cy Ford’s online Gallery to CyFord.com. For the time being we run in private mode, but the next step will be to storm Google Top 10 with the new site.

Cy Ford Gallery

Cy Ford’s website is first of all a Gallery, place to exhibit paintings and Drawings online. The site allows the artist painter to bring his work in front of interested visitors and to sell straight of the site.

Flowers and Candles by Cy Ford

Best Buy Cy Ford Paintings and Drawings

An easy to follow purchase pipeline paired with secure check-out allows Cy Ford to sell his work online. The store is easy to maintain and works can be added with just a few mouse clicks. Buyers will be able to navigate in function of the various categories, such as Drawings, Acrylic Paintings, Landscapes, Still Life, Drawings and more.

Google Top 10

As per above, we will now optimize the site and then invite Google to index and list CyFord.com. I suppose that within the next 24 hours we will see the first results on Google Top 10. Once Cy Ford indexed, we will add content to our target categories to reach higher visibility.

A special WP Best Gallery Feature

Surfing CyFord.com, you will notice that the site background changes; in fact we have built in a background rotator. The rotating images are Cy Ford’s works which can be purchased from the shop. This feature is a customization of WP Best Gallery by Semiomantics. More tomorrow.

Cy Ford Gallery and Shop

Semiomantics will manage and build Cy Ford’s online presence, starting from scratch on a blank page and we will use the project to demonstrate the power of Semiomantics WP Best Websites. Under the Project we will build a Gallery and Shop where Cy Fords works will be exposed and offered for sale.

Cy Ford Profile and Public Image

At the same time we will build Cy Ford’s public image and profile in a Google efficient way to make sure, interested searchers will find the Painter on the appropriate top spot on Google Top 10.

You may follow the evolution of this project by following this series of posts, where we will describe the different steps and achievements.

Bianca Gubalke Mobile

Bianca Gubalke Mobile – a first pre-seminar sketch for a mobile version! The little icons stand for Social Network icons like Facebook, Twitter etc, which I would design myself to fit into the overall picture I have in mind.

Bianca Gubalke Mobile

We are living in times of rapid change and the explosion of the mobile market. People use their mobile phones to search the net, to find what they want, to compare it and – to buy it. Sales figures triggered via the mobile net are staggering – and as web designers we have to adapt – which means also to focus on new technologies and learn new languages.

Over the past years, Semiomantics has always evolved along with WordPress Developments. Remarkably, the latest WP update allows for much more creativity. While our Semiomantics based author blogs display perfectly on smartphones through integration of the right plugins and settings, there’s much more scope that we will be looking into at this weekend’s Ycademy Seminar 2012 – which is also a testing ground for the new Semiomantics XO 2012 – to be released soon.

In that sense, I am looking forward to the evolution of Bianca Gubalke Mobile!

Web Design Trends 2012

The upcoming first Ycademy Seminar 2012 will focus on Web Design Trends 2012 in terms of what they mean for our brand-new WordPress based Semiomantics XO 2012.

Web Design Trends 2012

In order to follow and implement Web Design Trends 2012, learning new languages like CSS3 and html5 has become crucial – especially also due to the unfortunate conflicts around Flash which cannot be seen on the exploding mobile market. Accordingly, this weekend’s fully online YCADEMY Seminar will need focused attention and strong nerves! That’s the price to pay to be and remain a qualified Semiomantics expert!

MadMax is ready – are YOU?!

With the Fifa 2010 Soccer World Cup on our doorstep, South Africa is gearing up to an event of exorbitant proportions and an influx of people from all over the world the Rainbow Nation has never seen before!

Have a look at the Soccer City 2010 Stadium in Cape Town and let the architectural forms and African music give you goosebumps in anticipation of the thundering event that awaits us in June – everybody included!

Accommodation, B&B’s and places to stay in South Africa will be the hottest topic around – and with it. . . 2010 Cape Town Accommodation.

2010 Cape Town Accommodation

2010 Cape Town Accommodation – including accommodation in Noordhoek as part of the Southern suburbs along the Atlantic seaboard – will be especially sought after for the matches so far scheduled according to the official FIFA Schedule :

Match 2

11/06 20:30 Cape Town Uruguay – France

March 11

14/06 20:30 Cape Town Italy – Paraguay

Match 23

18/06 20:30 Cape Town England – Algeria

Match 30

21/06 13:30 Cape Town Portugal – Korea DPR

Match 44

24/06 20:30 Cape Town Cameroon – Netherlands.

If you spent all your money on Soccer World Cup Tickets and you want to get away from the buzz and madness of the town, Accommodation in idyllic rural Noordhoek – just 30 miles from Cape Town – may be a great choice.

Web Design Consulting

If you need to get onto the Internet map for 2010 Cape Town Accommodation it’s a bit late, but not for us at Web Design Consulting!

Expect high Performance at reasonable prices… and screenshots to proove we are among the Formula 1 drivers on the Internet highway!

YEBO GO GO 2010!

Monkey Valley Resort on Mobile

I just got some screenshots directly from the iPhone in Europe to demonstrate how the new Monkey Valley Resort Website actually looks on the Mobile web – and I’m absolutely thrilled! The quality and resolution are just outstanding and I left the image big so you can appreciate it here even though the picture may take a moment to load. This is soooo sexy!

Above, you see the Frontpage of the Monkey Valley Resort Website, which features a large elegant slider displaying the various chapters and attractions of the hotel resort 30 kms out of Cape Town, South Africa. What is remarkable here is how beautifully the slider displays – all based on new technology as, sadly, Flash does not display on mobile phones and this forced us to adapt in our Semiomantics Website Development, learning new languages like CSS3 and HTML5.

Monkey Valley Resort on Mobile

Much if not most of today’s business on the Internet is piped in one way or another through the mobile web… a reason why Monkey Valley Resort had to be visible on mobile.

Here is a horizontal version (probably 1 : 1) … and of course you can zoom up text or whatever you are interested in… and get to where you want to go in a fast and user-friendly way, eg. Click and BOOK!

The Importance of Functionality

The Importance of Functionality in terms of Website Design has a lot to do with the ease and user-friendly interaction between the website and the website visitor: the website has to communicate to the visitor what it is all about in an attractive way, guiding through what it has to offer and fulfilling almost intuitively what the visitor is looking for and making it easy to follow through with the desired action – say to book a room in a hotel…, to buy, pay and even download say an ebook… or to simply offer various sights of a specific area or place that shows the visitor what he can expect, eg. in a holiday resort or when researching a new home in real estate.

Today, being visible on the mobile web is crucial to the success of any website or Internet business – and therefore one of the most important functionalities of a website or blog.

Nowhere more than on the Internet do we see such rapid and continuous change and do we have to adapt, learn new languages and keep developing our knowledge and skills on an ongoing basis as in the virtual arena. A website or blog is not built to last forever and it needs a regular allocation of funds (budget) – it’s a project in constant development, adapting to the changes, changing with the trends and always trying to offer readers and visitors something new, something modern and going the extra mile to capture the traffic that leads to business and success.

Semiomantics XO 2012 for WordPress

The brand-new Semiomantics XO 2012 for WordPress – soon to be released – will be the central topic of the first Ycademy Seminar 2012, to be held this coming weekend.

As “Publishing for Excellence” at “Web Design with Passion” demands consistent learning, experimenting, an adaptation to trends and almost daily reassurance of the script’s leading SEO performance, the global Semiomantics Team is currently testing the new script and exploring different ways of presenting themselves or their products and services online.

Semiomantics XO 2012 for WordPress

I am very pleased with the more adventurous ways we can explore with the new Semiomantics XO 2012 for WordPress… and I know we haven’t even started! I am looking forward to creating the Wedding Website on this extraordinary WordPress based script.

Sliders are the Trend 2012

With sliders being an important part of the Trend 2012 as Website Design and “the Look” are concerned, I am currently experimenting with a fading slider – although extremely frustrating with often failing Internet connections and extremely slow lines down here… it feels like the sun flare is targeting us specifically and knocking us out completely!

Besides using sliders in the header or sidebar widgets or even blog posts and pages, we can now use them even in the background – which opens a lot more creative options and perspective.

At the Ycademy Seminar, we will work on becoming familiar with the new features of the XO 2012 and improve our knowledge of CSS3, HTML5 and jQuery so we are in a position to ‘play’ with the script, explore new avenues and, last but not least, adapt XO to our customers’ needs.

To be continued. . .

Touched by Gorillas

I was always touched by gorillas and I just love Nature and its wildlife, however, this short video about a close encounter with a family of gorillas in Uganda was sent to me by a friend and mutual wildlife lover… I invite you to see this and admire what a wonderful world we are living in! I just love Africa, where you feel the heart beating deep down from the earth and each single day is filled with surprise, magnificence and thrill.

Touched by Gorillas

Here’s the video that I simply call “Touched by Gorillas” – no need to explain or say anything… and especially those of you who know game reserves and camps can appreciate this wonderful experience to the fullest.

Imagine you sat there with your camera… I had quite a similar experience in the mountains with a wild troop of baboons… but gorillas are something else!

The above picture leads to the original website – thank you for allowing us to share this with the world!

Top Performance and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) are the first and most important factors to be considered when setting up a new Website or Blog, never mind whether you are a private individual or a corporate company. Getting solid and knowledgeable advice from a professional web designer or Semiomantics consultant will save you money, time and frustration – although the fact is that performance and visibility on Google Top 10 as well as on Social Networks genre Facebook and Twitter do increase if you are prepared to invest more – provided you are in good, trustworthy hands – as at Web Design Consulting .

Top Performance

Top Performance is meanwhile an almost abused slogan and promise to any prospect who wants to start a presence on the Internet.

Not long ago, I saw it even in big, bold letters on the rear window of a car driving next to me on the highway. With a juicy price tag to the service, per month that is. I made a mental note of the website and promptly looked it up on Google – and didn’t discover it anywhere.

How to choose a Performing Web Designer

So how does a normal person without too much insight or experience regarding Web 2.0 know how to choose a performing Web Designer?

By doing his due diligence and looking the Web Designer or Web Design Consultant up on Google!

Is he in control of his own name to start with? Look at the website, the performance, the look, the functionalities… now… today! Not a year ago… right now! Look at what comes over, how the images talk to you, the content resonates or looks rather fishy. Is there a proven track record of consistent work and proven results, eg. screenshots as you see regularly on this website, biancagubalke.com? Meaning absolute proof of targets being reached and within which time frame?

Let’s look at yesterday’s example:

Web Graphics Joy

My article on ‘Joy’ as an important element of Web Graphics Design reached a top ranking on Google – position 3 on over a million entries to be exact – within two minutes! See the screenshot below, where I researched the search term “Web Graphics Joy” with quite another thought in mind… I wasn’t prepared for such a smashing result that fast … but that’s the Power of our Semiomantics Scripts in combination with smart Editing and Publishing :

"Web Graphics Joy" on Google Top 10 – position 3 – in 2 minutes

Web Design Consulting

When considering these details, one gets a feeling as to where Web Design Consulting Services sound right, efficient and reliable – and fun to work with! And, as we are talking about High Performance… where a script – meaning the secret engine that drives the performance of a website or blog – achieves its goals, meaning where posts reach Google Top 10 positions on the keywords as delivered by the client and then targeted.

Of course, a client needs to know his keywords; if he’s wrong on that one noone else is to be blamed.

Finding the right keywords should not be taken light-heartedly; getting it right here is fundamental to one’s success online, and it is a Science – a highly paid one. Yes, it pays to invest in proper keyword research – and as the Internet changes daily following the temperamental movements of the masses and of course Google, it’s an ongoing process.

It never ends!

Setting up a website or blog is only the beginning; then the real work starts with daily publishing of good, well-edited content and regular maintenance to keep it alive and building towards its goal in terms of visibility on Google – and then staying there.

With our knowledge, dedication and support at Web Design Consulting you will!

TOP SEO Performance on Semiomantics

Here’s today’s example of TOP SEO Performance on Semiomantics XO 2011 (soon to be updated to XO 2012):

Earlier today, I wrote a small article for Monkey Valley Resort on “Best Tapas in Cape Town” as that’s what Darren Byrne from Thorfynn’s Restaurant at Monkey Valley Resort wanted a photo of on a hot Saturday afternoon yesterday.

While his interest is that a maximum of people see the News and visit his restaurant, my goal as a web designer is to ensure the message I put out on the Monkey Valley Resort Website reaches Google Top 10 – meaning a maximum of traffic and visitors to the website. Here’s the resultrank 7 out of 709,000 search returns and climbing! Ammmazing – Ole!

TOP SEO Performance on Semiomantics

A day earlier, I prepared the brand-new menu en al for “Best Valentine’s Dinner Cape Town” on 14th February 2012 at Thorfynn’s Restaurant HERE and – lo and behold – captured position 5 within a few minutes… and -as I just tested – am holding it to this moment without further intervention or support – see the screenshot here (click on it to enlarge it):

Best Web Design South Africa on Semiomantics

And to end this post, the day before I followed a request by Monkey Valley Resort founder Judy Sole to promote ‘a bit more beach’ – and did a simple article “Visit Noordhoek Beach”. This post just shot up to spots 1 and 2 on Google Top 10 :

…and as I saw just now, after 2 days, it has captured even spot 3!

No doubt: Monkey Valley Resort has chosen simply the Best Web Design South Africa on Semiomantics – high SEO optimization, a captivating design and high functionality! Unbeatable and proven on a daily basis!

And as the Internet becomes increasingly sophisticated… quality counts!
