Method

We follow three development philosophies that ensure your site maximizes your return on investment.

Mobile First

Websites that reach more customers.

With more than 1 billion mobile devices in use around the world, it's important to prioritize the experience of this ever-increasing demographic. The result is a focused site with great user experience.

Responsive Design

Websites that look great on any device.

Responsive web design enables your site to respond to the needs of your users by adapting to the width of the device they're displayed on. With new devices being released regularly, responsive websites are a necessity.

Progressive Enhancement

Websites that load fast.

Most consumers expect a web page to load in 2 seconds or less, and nearly half of consumers will abandon a website that takes more than 3 seconds to load. We design with performance in mind, because on the web, we know time is money.

What our clients are saying

Any type of business would benefit from working with Ethercycle. They did a great job of taking our very abstract concepts and turned them into concrete designs (which was very helpful). Their cooperative nature and speedy turnaround time was a breath of fresh air.
Eric Wilken VivaKi Nerve Center
Ethercycle brought a fresh perspective to the design process and really helped flesh out how we should approach our web presence. They were up on emerging web trends and helped us integrate the best of social media into our site. Their work is fresh, distinctive, and really focuses on the core of who we are and how we can best serve our customers and employees.
Brian Garcea RG Construction Services Inc.
We underwent a full site re-design and found Ethercycle to be an invaluable resource! They explained layout elements, coached our writing style, and guided us through the process of selecting imagery. They clarified outdated philosophies and worked with great patience to keep us on track. I know the Ethercycle team will be a trusted resource for a long time to come.
