I build websites that are graphically pleasing to the eye, while being easy to navigate for the end user. I incorporate technologies such as Flash, Java Scripts and other methods to enhance your website while still maintaining a clean and professional look..
Dear Brian, Randy and I would like to thank you for the exceptional as well as professional job you have done for us. Our Web site is wonderful and certainly far exceeded our expectations. Our new website has generated at least 60% more business for us and we couldn't be happier. Melanie & Randy Humphrey ThePerfectPortrait.net

Fully Optimized for Search Engines
There are many strategies for building websites so search engines can find them
easily. I will build you a site that maximizes your potential for being found when people are looking for you. I'll help you come up with all the right "meta data" and other methods for optimizing your chances for success.
Flash
Flash is an extremely cool technology to enhance a website design and all computers have the ability to display Flash animations. Adobe, the owners of Flash,claim that 98% of all computers have Flash players installed.
Entire websites can be constructed using only Flash. Alpine Geek sites are more typically HTML based designs that incorporate Flash elements for enhanced graphics, and general eye candy. This helps keep costs way down while still having some "flash". The image above is a good example of using Flash on an HTML page.
Sites constructed entirely from flash are indeed fun, but they are also considerably more expensive to build, take longer to load, have screen size issues, and are more difficult and time consuming to edit in the future. Using Flash elements in a site design is a great way to have some fun without making a site too busy and confusing.
Java Scripts
Java Scripts are used for a variety of purposes. Alpine Geek websites typically use them for site navigation and some types of photo galleries. These scripts are invisible to the public and are strictly a "behind the scenes" method for performing simple programming commands. These scripts are not to be confused with the Java programming language by Sun Microsystems... whole different ball of wax.
Website navigation listings and buttons are generally performed using this scripting to carry out site wide navigational changes, such as a new page being added to a site. The navigation buttons at the top and bottom of this page are controlled by this type of scripting.
The main problem with using Java Scripts is that it is currently not possible for search engines to read them, so additional strategies are needed so the search engines can properly index all of the pages on your site. Don't worry, the Alpine Geek takes care of all this mumbo jumbo.
Photo Galleries
Do you have lots of images to share? Then you're in luck! There are all sorts of new and fun ways to showcase your images. From simple photo galleries to interactive Flash galleries, now is an exciting time for posting images to the web.
The example on the right is a Flash "autoplay" animation and there are dozens of styles from which to choose.
Check out some Example Galleries below: Note: Sample Galleries will open in a new window.

Working with Brian is as easy as sliced bread. His ideas are creative, and with his vast experience, he is able to easily solve any issues that come up. Brian addresses issues immediately, responding to requests within minutes. The website he designed for me is professional, and more than I expected.
We can’t say enough good things about Brian. He recently did a new web site for Wayne and we couldn’t be more pleased. He had great ideas, was open to our suggestions, easy to work with and always followed through. The project is one we are very proud of. Thanks, Brian! Great job!
Brian Biggs of Alpine Geek helped create our website at Estes Park Baptist Church. He goes the second mile, and for us has been extremely helpful. He is always professional, very knowledgeable, and does stay on the cutting edge---truly, a joy with which to work. We invite you to view his work at epbc.net. Several of our business folks have hired him for their businesses. They have experienced the same wonderful assistance.
Last fall, we contracted with Brian Biggs to update, renovate and move the domain of our ten year old web site. Having worked briefly with Brian several years ago on some television advertising, gave me a great appreciation for his enthusiasm, creativity and desire to satisfy. Brian has been wonderful to work with and remains extremely responsive to anything we want done. We are very pleased with the results of his work.
I wanted you to know how pleased I am with the website you built for me. I have never seen a more beautiful and well constructed website. You used excellent judgment and astounding imagination in the concepts and development of the site. Further, you did what you said you would do, only much more and much better than I ever expected. Thank you so much for you professional product. I will be more than happy to be a reference for you.
Photos by Dill has worked with Brian for over 5 years. Brian’s services are excellent. He responds rapidly with designs which are always creative and user friendly. We have received many compliments from our customers regarding our web sites design and ease of use. Brian constantly educates us as he learns of new web marketing ideas.
We recommend the Alpine Geek (A.K.A. Brian Biggs) to many of our clients seeking a professional and tasteful, yet affordable website design. All of the clients we have referred to Alpine Geek have been extremely satisfied with the results.
