Web Applications

If you think about it too much, you’ll need a strong cup of coffee. These days, people demand their information when they want it, where they want it. This could be at 2 a.m., from their bedroom, or from their laptop in the back of a Land Rover on safari in Africa. The 24/7 philosophy of the Internet is now firmly entrenched in our collective consciousness — anything you require is only a mouse-click away.

Altruist Media’s leaders recognized the potential of the web early, and have been at the forefront of web development since the beginning. From teaching and informing through registration and coordination to live webcasts, Altruist uses the available-anywhere communications power of the web to its full potential.

Our team has also been a leader in accessibility, standards-based web design — the “new professionalism” of web development. Our designs conform to industry bast-practices for Section 508 and WAI accessibility guidelines and W3C standards for page design, without sacrificing artistic vision or design.

Benefits of this approach include:

  • Accessibility — Your content is visible to as many people as possible.
  • Search Engine Optimization — Search engines are better able to determine the important parts of your content, which leads more visitors to your site who are actually searching for the information you have.
  • Future-Proofing — Your content will continue to be available if a new browser technology comes out tomorrow, or 5 years from now.
  • Multi-Platform Compatibility — Your content will be available on any browser technology. Desktop computers, handheld devices, printers, or a phone service that reads a web page to you — all of these “just work”.
