Point One Media began working with P.S.I. Fluid Power several years ago when it assisted with the company's website build in 2006. For 2012, we upgraded P.S.I. into a content manager system that was even easier to use. Along with this upgrade in technology, we gave the website a brand new custom look and feel that is more streamlined so site visitors can instantly find what they are looking for.
It was important that the client be able to constantly update the site's homepage content, so we created three individual blocks of text which can be edited with just a few clicks. It was also important that the online inventory closely replicate the company's digital catalog that was supplied, and careful attention was placed on Search Engine Optimization.
If P.S.I. expands its inventory in the future, limitless categories can be easily added and if the company chooses to sell the product online using a real-time payment integration, the catalog can easily be converted to accommodate.
