Graybar.com Facelift

Graybar.com has gone through a minor face lift, much more still needs to be done to the site, but the look and feel of the home page looks much nicer.

Visit Graybar.com

For starters, I’ve added a jQuery image rotator to display the most current / important things that Graybar currently offers.

Down the left side, there are now ‘orange tabs’ for quick access to other places on Graybar.com that seem to generate a lot of traffic, as well as the Resource Center down the right hand side.

For the most part, no content has changed. A few of the blue tabs in the main navigation have had a name change, but still lead to the same place. Markets Served is now Customers and Products is now Manufacturers.

The new theme that we are trying to put in place with Graybar.com is that it is never done. A web site is a living, breathing being that must update often and constantly evolve. If any web site becomes old and stale it will eventually die, and with the amount of time, money, and effort that has been put into Graybar.com, I will NOT let that happen.

Along with the Graybar.com face lift, I have also developed a mobile site for Graybar. If you visit Graybar.mobi on your cell phone you will receive some general information about Graybar as well as some different ways to contact Graybar. Don’t bother trying to visit the site from your desktop, I have it set up to redirect you to Graybar.com.

Building a mobile site is not only new to Graybar, but it is new to me as well. I’ve never built a .mobi site before, but as I learn more about it and what it can do, I’m sure it will grow into an equally robust site as Graybar.com is.
