The Arora Designs Blog

Webdesigner Depot!

The Arora Designs website was featured on the extremely popular design resource website, Webdesigner Depot as a prime example of the principal of proximity in design.

Here is what they have to say about our visual hierarchy:

"This example illustrates the importance of proximity in print design, and a similar idea can be used for elements in web design, as shown in the screenshot below. Although Arora Designs' website is not complex or information-heavy, its use of white space and visual separation of grouped elements are effective. It should be noted here that "white space" does not have to be white; it can be any empty space between elements, regardless of color. In the case of Arora Designs, although the white space has color, it serves the same purpose of visually separating the header, navigation and content areas."

Small Business Websites!

A lot of the feedback we've been getting from prospective small business customers is that we look too expensive for them. According to them, we seem like a large design boutique that only caters to clients with thousands of dollars in their web design budget. While it's true that we cater to large businesses and corporations by building them custom websites and brand collateral, we aren't too big for the individuals and small businesses out there.

Why choose some cookie-cutter website template that has little or nothing to do with your business? Why pay monthly fees? Why sign up for a content management system that you don't have the time to learn?

At Arora Designs we handle all of that for you - and we're actually really proud of that. For a one-time fee, we can build you a completely custom website, take care of web hosting, give you business emails and even design your logos, business cards or other brand collateral.

Starting at just $100 a page, our custom web design team will take care of all the details for you, so you don't have to. No worrying, no stress, no hassles. Call us at 817-601-5086 or just use our simple online form here to get a free quote!

Low Budget, High Satisfaction

Here at Arora Designs, we specialize in total customization. If you're a thriving company that needs a new website or a website redesign in the Dallas TX area (and beyond), we're the company for you. Not a thriving company? No problem. We can design a custom website or create a new brand identity for start up companies, small businesses, and even individuals.

Such was the case for Nicole, who started her small business this summer. Intuitive Solutions For Life is a decorating and organizing company located in Portsmouth, NH. Nicole didn't necessarily want all the bells and whistles; she had an idea, expressed it to us, and we made it a reality. She now has a custom designed website perfectly suited for her business and her customers. She doesn't have hundreds of pages, fancy flash animations or even a contact form. She came to us wanting a specific "look" designed for her, and we delivered.

Now her website graces the top of the first page of Google search engine results for her cited locations and services. Her business is taking off, and she couldn't be happier with the website. In fact, she's informed us only recently that she will be ordering a blog from us to be implemented on her website within the next few days and weeks.

The moral of the story? Small or large company, small or large budget, we can custom design your website the way you envision, at a budget you can live with. Contact us today for a free quote!

Wildest Dreams

The Beautiful 2.0 website gallery has become a much larger success (and much more quickly) than we had deemed possible. In just over 14 days, Beautiful 2.0 has been featured on 23 popular css gallery websites, has gone up millions of points in website ranking, and has reached over 50 subscribers.

Some of this success is due to the fact that Beautiful 2.0 is highly selective in its accepted website submissions. Only the most artistic and visually creative websites are featured in the gallery. The gallery consists of web 2.o, css, and flash websites (or any mixture of the three).

The website is also an international success, being extremely popular in countries such as Japan, India and Romania. The largest audience of course consists of folks in the USA, Canada, and the UK.

If you're interested in seeing the daily submissions, check out beautiful 2.0 or subscribe to the feed. One of the most effective ways to view the latest website additions on Beautiful 2.0 is to follow them on twitter.

We'd like to thank all our partners for their help in the success of our newest venture.
