Welcome to Stylized Media

Stylized Media is a web design company based in Portland, Oregon, serving customers throughout the United States and Europe. We specialize in the design and creation of online solutions for business and personal needs. This website was built to show some examples of our work, allowing visitors to see potential features they may want to include in their website.

Drupal and CMS:

While we pride ourselves in original coding, Stylized Media is built on an Open Source Content Management System (CMS), Drupal, which provides incredible flexibility in design, features and functionality. Drupal is a database-driven mixture of PHP, HTML and CSS. In non-techie terms, this means the core of the website is not visible by the users, but it does allow people to log in, create and update their content without the help of an administrator. For more information about Drupal, please visit their website: www.drupal.org

Dynamic -vs- Static Websites

Stylized is currently featuring dynamic, content management driven, web solutions! There is a growing need for customizable content, and Stylized is here to fulfill the growing demand.

There are too many websites in the world that have outdated, irrelevant information.

Currently, most websites are what is known as "static". They have the ability to show information, images, and content for any user that visits them. A static site can look fantastic, however, a static website is a website that does not provide any interaction between it and its users.

With a dynamic website pages are created and driven by the back-end, so making and updating is done in just a few easy clicks! Users can create forums, image galleries, news information, subscribe to pod casts, view the latest weather and just about anything else you may have seen on the net. Dynamic websites also guarantee higher search engine hits. Imagine what that could do for your business!

While dynamic sites are innovative, they may not be for everyone:

Although content management driven websites can open a portal to many incredible online features, it's not for everyone. Everyone needs a website for at least the purpose of having an online CV/resume. A website is the new business card, and any professional, student, free-lance artist, underwater basket weaver should have one!

Stylized Media uses several marketing and design techniques to graphically ensure each client is able to effectively represent their business. While the functionality of a website is crucial, all sites must be easy to navigate and visually pleasing. Statistically, customers allow around 5 seconds to find what they are looking for on a website before they leave and search elsewhere. It is our mission to make sure they stay.

As well as offering web design, Stylized Media offers the following graphic services:

- Logo Design
- Print Marketing
- Business Card Design and Print
