- Secure Reservation Request Form: This will allow a guest to make a secure reservation request. This will allow us to capture email addresses, phone numbers and mailing addresses. We will use the email to send out future rates, discounts and newsletters. This database will allow the reservation department to login into the database to gather the reservation request. When a guest has made a reservation request, an email will be sent to that guest to insure that someone will contact them within the next 24 hours.
- Rates Email Capturing: This page will be the first of the rates section and will ask for your email address before you can see the rates. This is programmed with cookies. Once a guest has entered his or her email address they will not be required to enter their email again. These emails will allow us to invite these guests back to the facility with current specials.

WordPress
Have you heard of WordPress? With more than three quarters of a million Facebook fans, it’s probably the most popular content management system on the web. What does that mean? It means with the help of WordPress, we can deliver you a website that you can edit and update yourself. Have you ever had to wait for a developer to fix typos or post your new photos? Not anymore, you can do it yourself with WordPress. And because it’s so popular there is a vast network and support group to help you. Of course, if you don’t want to personally manage those details we can still use WordPress and it means less time and cost to maintain and update your site.
Now, the wonderful developers over at WordPress.org have released this software to the public free of charge. So if you’re feeling savvy you can set it up on your own, choose an existing template, pull from a huge library of plugins to suit your needs and you’re off. But, if you want a custom design, functionality to fit your specific needs and 6 years of experience, then OLWM is the right choice.
JavaScript, jQuery and Ajax
JavaScript is the most popular programming language for making your web pages more interactive and interesting. Fields that autocomplete, instant form validation, rotating banners: these are all powered by JavaScript.
Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) is another fancy technology that allows us to load new content, upload images, submit forms and a myriad of other tasks without page loads and long wait times. This makes your site faster and smoother.
jQuery is popular JavaScript library that makes developing dynamic, mobile ready web applications with JavaScript and Ajax much faster and more compatible with the many web browsers that your clients use to visit your site. It also adds some powerful tools for adding exciting animations to your site. The bottom line here is that because our team has experience with jQuery and these other technologies, we can offer you all of the bells and whistles with consisting and stability across browsers and devices.
Responsive Design
More and more customers are now browsing the web on tablets and mobile devices. Traditional websites may not function or display properly on these devices. Even when they do, the text is often tiny and difficult to read. If a user finds your website and it’s not mobile friendly they’re likely to get frustrated and leave, which means you’ve lost a potential customer.
We work hard with our design team to make sure that the sites we deliver display well on tablets and smart phones, because we want your visitors to stay on your site and have a positive experience. We accomplish this with something called responsive design. Rather than build a completely separate site for your mobile users, we program your website so that it’s able to scale smoothly on any device. It’s the same site, we just increase the font size and mix up the layout, so mobile users see what you want them to see and so they can find what they’re looking for without trying to zoom in and pan around the page. If you’ve never experienced this, pick up a tablet or smart phone and browse a few pages. You’ll quickly see what we mean and we think you’ll agree this is not the experience you want your customers to have on your site.
