Meaningful organization of visual and written information goes a long way toward conveying the impression that you know what you're doing.  Graphic design can run the gamut from communication to pure visceral thrill, and our designers can craft an appropriate look for your site, no matter what it's intent. 

The interface of your application or web site is the public face of your business on-line.  Makes perfect sense, but a lot of people don't fully understand the importance of intuitive, easy to use navigation design.  Good interface work often goes unnoticed, but bad interface work always gets noticed.  When people get frustrated with your business, they simply go away, and it's the same with your web site.

Content alone doesn't get you very far. The right technology, however, can help you manage that content to its maximum advantage. Choosing technology options to match your content requirements can give your web business the spark it needs to really heat up.

Interest in wireless applications and services is exploding, especially in the youth market (ages 15-25).  According to In-Stat/MDR research firm, there stands to be an estimated 25-35 million potential wireless customers just in the youth market this year.  Because of this, nearly every major portal, content provider, and eBusiness site is evolving some form of wireless support for their services. 

Let Avatar New York help you break into these new markets and satisfy what your customer’s desire.  Whether its porting your existing site or online application to the new wireless medium or building the infrastructure from scratch, we have the tools and experience that will get you there. 

We host approximately 75% of the sites we develop.  Avatar New York hosts its sites at Broadwing, which features an award-winning all-optical network, guaranteed 100% IP network availability and 99% or better packet delivery.   Depending on your needs, we can set you up with your own servers, or your site can reside on a shared server for a more economical solution.

Hosting your site with us frees you from IT headaches and allows faster response time when you want changes.  It not only makes things easier, it makes things cheaper as well.  We spend less time retrieving files and wading through server permissions.  And that saves you money.

Avatar New York has its roots in technology. Hard core programming and database integration is at the heart of most of our projects.

We can deliver the programming to power any application you can think of. We program in PHP, Java, XML, Perl, ASP, and C++ depending on what works best for your application. On the visual side, our multimedia designers program in Actionscript, Lingo and Flash to achieve spectacular results in their animation work.

We've developed customized applications for our customers that have led to changes in the way they do business. We've designed business-to-business applications that generate new viable revenue streams for our clients.  See our case study on Yamaha Music Interactive for such an example.

We've built customer management systems that cut company overhead while improving efficiency and response time. We have experience in building product management tools that streamline product distribution and promotion.

Whether its improving efficiency, cutting costs, or generating new revenue, we can help you envision, plan, and produce new business tools that will make a difference.
