Dragonfly Soaps    
Dragonfly Soaps
Website: http://www.dfsoaps.com
What a gorgeous opportunity it was to work with a small business selling such a beautiful natural product! Dragonfly Soaps is a green, Pennsylvania-based business selling absolutely lovely handmade soaps. Owner, Jackie Barth, came to us when she needed a very appealing and professional website to showcase her company's fabulous inventory of natural bar soaps. With product photography by professional photographer Thomas MacDonald, our job was to produce a design and expert copywriting that would make a visit to this website the next best thing to holding one of Dragonfly Soaps' natural soaps in your own hands! This project was a delight from start to finish and now Dragonfly Soaps' customers have a truly easy way to order their favorite bar soaps online.

"I am writing to express my gratitude and appreciation for the excellent and timely work you did on putting together a website for Dragonfly Soaps. We had no previous knowledge of web design or even of the process needed to get through the creation of one. You stepped us through, guiding us as to what we could expect and what you would be needing next from us and giving us time to sit and reflect with each design iteration."

"Miriam, your copywriting for our soap descriptions are nothing short of fine literature and together with the beautiful photograpy work, we truly have a site that sets us apart from the hundreds of other handcrafted soapmakers on the internet. It is clean and uncluttered but still gives the search engines plenty of material to use to find us."

"Responses to the introduction of the website from friends and family ranged from, WOW, 1st class, awesome and beautiful to "I got goose bumps when I saw your website". I agree, I love it and I loved working with you and have already recommended your services to others. Thank you again."
- Jackie Barth, Owner, Dragonfly Soaps

"When I first decided to hire a web designer, I did a search in Google and came up with Solas Web Design. After reading some of their pages, I really felt like they were the ones that should build my site so I submitted a question to them. 1 day later, Miriam contacted me and we talked about creating the website, and what kind of ideas I had. This is the kind of service you dream of. I felt like I had someone else that understood where my project should go, and she could put all my ideas together into a concise site. She sincerely sounded excited about starting the project with me, and was clearly not in this just for the money. Needless to say, I was thrilled!"

"We talked backed and forth for awhile and finally settled on a contract. Then came the day when they sent me the Home page design. I was almost scared to look at it, but when I did I was in total shock. It was totally different then what I thought it should look like, but after a few seconds I realized that this was better than anything I had ever dreamed. It was new, fresh, and exciting! They had taken my ideas and formed them into a new fantastic-looking site!"

"Not just designers, but innovators, I believe. When you're working with people who have a passion for what they do, and also have a great work ethic, it shows in their work. That's what Solas Web Design to me is all about: passion and work ethic. What more could you ask for? If you're looking for a quality, well-built site that is optimized for both Google and the reader, then look no further than Solas Web Design. You'll be glad you did."
- John W. Tuggle, Owner, Learning Guitar Now
