Web Design in Kenner, Louisiana

Designing for Kenner: the facts that matter

Water covers 0.2 square miles inside Kenner, against 14.9 square miles of land. Water also means storms, insurance questions and repairs, and owners search for people who know the conditions. Photos of real jobs on the water and a plain service list beat generic beach pictures.

Kenner has been around since 1855, with more than a century and a half of history behind it. In a place with that much history, many customers have used the same plumber, accountant or bakery for years, and a newer business has to earn trust one job at a time. Just opened? Then the website has to do what word of mouth does for the older names: explain exactly what you do and for whom. The site is where all of this turns into a decision, so it pays to get the basics right.

Interstate 10 runs through Kenner, putting the city on one of the main travel and freight routes of Louisiana. Travelers look things up a few exits ahead, decide fast and rarely call to ask whether you are open. Say which exit and how to get there from the highway on the contact page, and keep the hours right.
