Holistic Health Website


This past October, Adam Jay Miller contacted The New York Website Designer. Adam is a personal nutritionist and holistic healer. He was looking to have a website built for his Holistic Nutrition practice. He wanted to create a personal website promoting his nutritional consulting, holistic solutions, fitness plans, and health advisory services. He needed a logo, a few basic web pages as well as social media integration.

Adam didn't have a domain name selected, so during our first consultation we focused on finding the perfect name. Using keyword tools, I assisted Adam to find a business name that not only fit the aesthetics of his company, but the combination of the words we chose were  also search engine optimized to drive the appropriate traffic to his website. 

Pure Soul Diet was created! It reflects his holistic approach to a healthy lifestyle and diet. The key words "pure diet" and "pure soul" also happen to be search terms that garner over 20,000 searches per month!

Here is the logo The New York Website Designer created for Pure Soul Diet:



Adam was thrilled with his logo and website and posted this glowing 5-star review on Yelp:

Working with Andrea was amazing! She is extremely talented and will patiently listen to all of your needs and concerns to create exactly what you're looking for. I spoke with several web designers and after meeting with Andrea I was instantly sold; going with anyone else would've been a terrible idea. Look no further....THIS IS YOUR NEW WEB DESIGNER. -Adam Jay Miller (12/22/2011)

The New York Website Designer's 2011 Clients

Here is a list of clients The New York Website Designer worked with in 2011. It was a great year and I was so inspired by the passion of these business owners and professionals. If you have a moment, check out their websites. They are great people with such unique services and talents!

2012 is already off to a booming start and I'm looking forward to working with even more EntrepreneursStart-ups and Professionals in the year ahead! Did you know: According to Google, 97% of Americans use the Internet to search for local products and services., but only 52% of NY’s small businesses actually have a website, making it extremely difficult for online shoppers to find them. Make sure you have an impressive online presence!   From the creation of your logo, to business cards, social media sites, blogs and (of course) your website...The New York Website Designer strives to be your one-stop-show for all of your online marketing needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some answers to questions that I am frequently asked.
If you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. I'll be sure to get back to you within a few hours!


-Andrea Bertola
The New York Website Designer
..........................................................................................

How do I get my website to show up on the 1st page of Google?

Search Engine Optimization, a/k/a SEO. Many web designers have a background in Graphic Design, not in Internet Marketing. With the New York Website Designer, you get the best of both worlds! Not only does Andrea have a degree in Fine Arts, she is also a Search Engine Optimization Expert.  She can optimize your website to rank higher in search engine results, which means more website visitors for you! In 2010,  was able to bring one client’s website from 300,000 to 1,000,000 hits per month!

How fast can my website be "live" on the web?

After the initial website design consultation, your website can be "live" in as little as 14 days.

How much do you charge?

I offer starting prices as low as $300 for a three page website! I understand that many of my clients are "start-up" companies with limited budgets and I believe everyone is entitled to a high-quality, affordable website. Instead of being paid an hourly fee, which is hard for clients to monitor…my prices are à la carte. You get to pick and choose which elements you would like to include on your site. This puts YOU in control of your website budget.

Can I have access to update my own website?

Absolutely, just make sure you tell me about your needs and I will build the web site on a platform that will allow you to quickly and easily update your site. Anytime. Anywhere.

Can you make website updates for me?

Of course! My extremely affordable website maintenance packages allow you to update your site quickly and easily. I offer two options: you can either pay on a monthly basis or pay on an “as needed” basis.

How accessible are you?

Email me 24/7 and your updates will be live on the website within the next 48 hours. Guaranteed, or the update is free!

Will I get individualized attention?

The thing that makes me stand out from many of the larger companies is the fact that I provide individualized attention to every single one of my clients. You will not get lost in the shuffle.

Will I get a one-of -a-kind website?

I will create a custom website design that best represents YOU and your company’s unique needs. I never use the same template twice. No “cookie cutter” websites here!!! My artistic ability and creative problem solving is ideal for designing modern, eye-catching and effective promotional material.

Where are you located?

Based in borough of Manhattan in New York City, NY, (the business capital of the world), I have my finger on the pulse when it comes to the most current trends in online marketing. That being said, I have clients from all over the country. Modern technology makes it easy for me to work with all clients, giving them a New York Website design, no matter where they are located!

What types of clients do you work with?

My clients are unique and diversified. Clients include: Wall Street executives, lawyers, bloggers, surfers, doctors, artists, photographers, non-profit organizations, therapists, holistic healers, cinematographers, real estate agents, jewelers, actors, musicians, and that's just the tip of the iceberg!  Creative designs = happy clients!

Frances McGarry's website

Just finished this website for Actor/Educator Frances McGarry! Check it out:




The purpose of Frances McGarry's website has three components: first, to share some of life’s lessons she has learned along the way and how that process evolves each and every day. Second, to perpetuate her mission statement: to insure that the arts remain to be a viable part of the human condition from the family, to the classroom, to the global communities; third, to highlight practical applications that illustrate how the arts, particularly the theater, can truly change the world. "That it can transform a person’s existence with a blink of an eye, a flicker of hope, a message of love."

Her blog First On Line With Fran will offer opportunities for visitors to join her in discussions on how practitioners are utilizing the arts to make our world a richer, deeper, better place to live. 

Best of luck to Frances! Enjoy your new website.

Websites for Actors

The New York website designer specializes in websites for actors. Think of your website as your online portfolio, or a giant business card. Backstage.com did an article on websites for actors and they noted, "Thanks to the Internet, a headshot and résumé don't have to be an actor's sole calling card anymore. A website can help you raise your visibility and spotlight your talent. And just as a quality headshot and résumé can brand you an astute pro, so can a top-notch website. But the opposite is also true: A confusing or inferior site can frustrate casting directors."

So make sure you hire someone that knows the industry! Luckily for you, Andrea Bertola has two loves in her life: website design AND theater. With Andrea you get a top-notch website designer that has also been on BOTH sides of the casting table. 

RATES
Having been a "starving artist" myself, I understand that money is always tight…here is a way to get an affordable website. I’ll work within YOUR budget! Instead of being paid an hourly fee, which is hard for clients to monitor…my prices are à la carte. You get to pick and choose which elements you would like to include on your site. This puts YOU in control of your website budget.
