We built a web site for the City of Long Beach quite a few years ago, which had been well-maintained by city staff.   The time had come, however, to do some serious housecleaning, and to bring the site into the social media generation.   We gave them an installation of WordPress and transferred the data from the old site into the new one.  A little tweaking, fresh photos, functional plug-ins… whoosh!  A new site was born!

Long Beach citizen volunteer Mark Perez has been hard at work editing the site’s content and developing new pages.  Longbeachwa.gov grows more comprehensive and useful every day!

At the same time, Tourism & Event Coordinator Ragan Andrew envisioned a section of the site dedicated to package travel and tour operators. She, along with Councilman Jerry Phillips and contractor Melody Johnson, designed the site structure & function, including a password-protected area. The “scrapbook-y” look and feel of the micro site was inspired by a sales book Ragan had developed.

They’re thrilled with the results, and that makes us very happy!
