Mixing Business with Pleasure in One Website

We at Roundpeg are pleased to announce the launch of our latest client website,  ipitravel.com. For its new website, IPI Travel wanted to show off its great travel destinations. Easy enough for a full-service travel agency, right? Well, not so fast. IPI Travel is a little different from most agencies.

One Small Step for a Client, One Giant Leap for a Web Developer

You know what they say, sometimes you have to crawl before you can walk – or something cliché like that. Regardless of how you say it, the opportunity to design a micro site for Nolan Securities and Investigations (NSI) gave me a chance to test the waters of web design without the challenges associated with putting together an entirely new site. NSI, the area’s largest, most-trusted event security provider, is gearing up for a hiring surge as they recruit candidates for large upcoming sports events.   A scaled down version of  their primary site, it is only three pages, built...
