Website Management
After building the first couple websites in the mid-90's, I decided that I didn't want to spend the rest of my life managing other peoples' websites. So almost a decade before "Content Management Systems" became a hot topic, I started building one.
Each system is designed to meet the client's specific needs. Here are a few of the more interesting stories...
- Lance Burton
- http://www.lanceburton.com
- "Lance Burton Master Magician", one of the most popular shows in Las Vegas. Lance has his own theater at the Monte Carlo. But even with a huge contract, Lance is smart with his money. He was spending way too much for way too little website support. So I built a custom system that allows his publicity agent to handle all of the details without being a web guru.
- McBride Magic
- http://www.mcbridemagic.com
- Jeff McBride is one of the most dynamic magical entertainers in the world. We've been friends for about 15 years and his was the first website I ever produced. The site and the content management system continue to grow as his business continues to expand.
- McBride's House of Mystery
- http://www.mcbridemagic.net
- Jeff McBride was recently named one of the most influential magicians of the 20th century. Jeff has been wanting an interactive tour of his home for many years. Now, thanks to help from artist Duncan Eagleson and designer Gabe Marihugh, McBride's House of Mystery is a reality.
- Magic & Mystery School

- I've been involved with the Magic & Mystery School since the very beginning at the first Mystery School in 1991.

The online systems not only manage content, but also event registration and the Secret Art Journal eZine.
- Carnival of Illusion

- Acoustic Storm

- The Acoustic Storm is a nationally syndicated radio show, run by my friend Jeff Parets. One of the first steps was building a website that would not only showcase the radio program, but also help him manage the show content. After building the client base from the ground up, Jeff partnered with United Stations Radio Networks and the site is how syndicated in over 50 markets across the U.S.
