AJT DESIGN & MARKETING FORMS SPECIAL PRODUCTION AND MANAGEMENT TEAM TO PRODUCE GOVERNMENT WEBSITES

Orlando, Florida - Amidst all the attention placed on B2B (business-to-business) websites, one significant genre of web development has been largely ignored – government websites.  While most government agencies do have a website, they’re often outdated or ineffective.  Now AJT Design & Marketing, Inc., an Orlando, Florida based web design firm, has created a specialized team to focus on developing quality websites for all types of city, county and state government organizations.

“Much like businesses, government groups are realizing that web technology offers them unique opportunities to better serve their constituents,” said Aden Sebastian, President of AJT Design.   “A quality website can increase citizen participation as well as enhance the convenience and speed with which citizens obtain government information and services.  The website can serve as a valuable community resource, helping government to reach larger sectors of the population.” 

AJT Design’s “Government Team” will focus on creating contemporary designs that are both visually appealing and functional.  “It’s vital that government websites are universally accessible and user-friendly,”  Sebastian said.  “They should be easily navigated by all users from the most sophisticated to the Internet novice.” 

Among the objectives of the AJT Design "Government Team" is to ensure that its website designs are versatile.  The websites should be able to grow and change with the organizations they serve.  Another objective is to create websites that are more than just “look-at” sites but rather encourage interaction with users, such as a library website that allows users to renew books, a tax website that accepts tax returns, or a city site that allows users to apply for government jobs online. 

In addition, AJT Design says it likes to create websites that give in-house control to the site owners.  “Having the ability to add to or change content helps government agencies to keep their sites current and relevant.  A website that can be easily updated will have increased longevity, helping to save on costly redesigns in the future,” Sebastian explained. 

Several of AJT's government contracts include working with The City of Haines City (Polk County, Florida), the Osceola County Tax Collector, the Highlands County Tax Collector and the Osceola County Library System.

Founded in 1996, AJT Design & Marketing, Inc. is a full-service Internet web design, interactive marketing and web hosting firm based in Orlando, Florida that has produced hundreds of websites for companies and organizations in diverse fields.  It offers its clients the convenience of turnkey web development services from web design to website hosting to search engine marketing.  For more information on its Government Team and its full range of Internet services, contact AJT Design & Marketing in Orlando at (407) 880-6810 or visit its website at www.ajtdesign.com.
