Evolution Web Development (Evo) designs and builds websites as effective business platforms: sites that help businesses and organizations communicate and connect with customers and prospects.

Evo never looks at a website or a blog as just a “technology project.” We know websites that work are tools designed to accomplish specific marketing and business objectives. And we know your business needs will change, so we work hard to build in growth potential and adaptability, creating a site that meets your business needs today and in the future.

Evo has expertise in WordPress as a platform for business websites, and offer consulting on blog-related issues (evowebdev.com is built on WordPress to maximize the benefits of blog traffic). We developed our own WordPress theme, Evo4 CMS, as a highly customizable framework for business websites. Recently, we updated the theme to incorporate HTML5 specifications, and renamed it evo5cms.

EvoBloggito (little Evo blog) is principal/creative director Ray Gulick’s (that’s me) blog on web design/development, marketing, business, and blogging; I tend to publish a couple of times a month unless mugged by inspiration. Evo is a strong proponent of blogging for business, due to its ability to draw significantly greater search engine traffic to company websites. I invite you to subscribe to the blog and/or our irregularly-published email newsletter (social icons at the top of each page). A representative sample of posts that might be of interest to you if you’re a business owner, manager or marketer is our When Bad Websites Happen to Good Companies series.

Evo was started in May, 2000; now in its 12th year. With more than 20 years of prior experience as a graphic designer/ art director and 7 years as a corporate marketing communications manager, my goal at Evo from the beginning has been to build websites that meet companies’ marketing objectives. Evolution Web Development, LLC, is organized as a New Mexico limited liability company. Evo has been listed by the New Mexico Business Weekly as one the top 25 New Mexico web design/development firms (based on revenue) annually since 2001, often appearing in the top 10.
