We have just launched a new eCommerce site; Night of Joy Vintage. The owner Anne Prunoske was a delight to work with. She had a very unique design in mind for her site and working together we were able to deliver a site that she is proud of. Adaptive used our favorite shopping cart utility from SquirrelCart. This low cost shopping cart has a nice backend management utility which gives the owner of the site complete freedom to manage inventory, track sales, and integrate with shippers. Please visit the Night of Joy site at www.nightofjoyvintage.com you may just find that vintage item that you've been looking for. - December 2006
We are proud to introduce a very nice web site for The Tot Spot Childcare centers. We would like to take credit for the nice design, layout and use of primary colors but we can't, the owner of The Tot Spot provided the entire site design as a Microsoft excel spreadsheet. We translated this design into an efficient web site. We added a few features that have enhanced the site by locating a very easy-to-use photo gallery that can be totally maintained by our client. Please visit The Tot spot on the web at www.totspotkids.com . If you are looking for child care services they may be just what you're looking for. Even though there are not specific photos of the facility on the web site it is very modern and clean. - July 2006
It is exciting for us to work with a new Pittsford NY inventor Jim Berry. Jim is a volunteer fireman who has recognized the advantage of using LEDs in smoke filled fire situations. He invented the Buddy Light which attaches to a fire helmet and allows fellow firefighters to help locate their team in smoke filled areas. The site www.BuddyLight.com was developed based on a template purchased by our client. We built a CSS file to keep all pages looking uniform. CSS is short for Cascading Style Sheets. We took photos for the gallery page and front page product photos. We also incorporated the PayPal shopping cart utility into this site so that a shopping cart utility was not needed initially (if at all). Please visit www.BuddyLight.com and tell your firefighter friends about this product that might just save someone's life. - July 2006
New sites that Adaptive is now hosting… www.drpsignsngrafix.com (in development), www.demallieracingproducts.com, and www.Waynecountyfair.org - July 2006
We did some research on "Craigs List" type utilities that would allow our client to provide the same type of features as craigslist.org. We found a very nice craigs list copy cat utility at Ning.com. Our client, Happy Joker, decided to direct one of their existing domains to the site at Ning, for easy name recognition. Now they are able to provide similar features as craigs list but at a minimal investment. Ning allows the owner to place Google AdSense ads on the site for a minimal monthly fee. Please visit Happy Joker at www.HappyJoker.com (which is now redirected to a Ning site). Don't forget to add an item for sale or an upcoming event, it's FREE - June 2006
Adaptive took over this site from a defunct web developer. When Adaptive was contacted by M & M Home Inspections Inc. their site was down and their email was not operational. We did the leg work to find out all the information to transfer the site and domain name. We now host the site and our new client is happy to have a person to talk to when issues arrive. Please visit www.mandmhome.com and when you need to have your home inspected please consider them first. - June 2006
Please welcome Gipetto's Homemade Italian restaurant to the world wide web www.gipettoshomemadeitalian.com We designed this site from the menu and other restaurant literature. We maintained the color scheme and tried to incorporate all of the menu text on the front page so that the search engines would be better able to place them when someone was searching for Italian food in Fairport. - May 2006
We have been very busy lately with a new client. They decided to get into the internet business in a fast and furious way… purchasing a number of exiting websites and a number of new domain names. The approach has been to focus on the benefits of driving traffic to their sites and with the use of affiliate programs the websites themselves generate cash. Please take a look at their sites www.happyjoker.com, www.newsbackup.com (this site loads slow because it is searching a 10 Giga-byte database), www.jokescity.com, and www.cigars.bz, with others on the way. Some of the more popular affiliate programs are Google AdSense, LinkShare.com, Commission Junction and there are many others. These programs are not going to make you money unless your site traffic is substantial. The normal click trough rate is less than 1% on an affiliate ad. If you know your site visitors and focus your ads towards their interests you might get lucky. If you would like to try this out we recommend that you start with Google AdSense and see how it goes. However the ads that are placed on your site could be from a competitor. Unless you own an informational site you may want to steer clear of these ads. However if you would like to start an informational site and be one of the advertisers on that site you could benefit in two ways, one driving more people to your site and two providing a possible affiliate income. Please let us know if this something you would like to give a try. - March 2006
If you are a coffee aficionado you may want to purchase some coffee from Caye Coffee .com, their coffee is packaged from a single supplier on Ambergris Caye, a small island in the Caribbean just off the coast of Belize. CayeCoffee.com is a single supplier of this coffee in the United States. Adaptive put together this site based on the suppliers site Caye Coffee .bz to reflect a uniform appearance for the coffee supplier. We made a few modifications to the Orders page that has quickly allowed online payments directly to the owners PayPal account. If you would like to start accepting payments online PayPal is a cost effective way to begin (it's free). With ebay becoming so popular PayPal is quickly becoming a payment method of choice. As a merchant you can still accept payments using Master Card, Visa, American Express or Discover if the buyer doesn't have a PayPal account. - February 2006
We are proud to introduce Super Seal Sealcoating to the Adaptive family of websites www.supersealco.com. Super Seal has been in the seal coating business for over 20 years, and we were honored to provide them with a site that meets their high level of expectations. - January 2006

If you would like to signup to receive our newsletter please enter your email address in the form on this page (under the Google search box, below and to the right). - January 2006
