When you’re asking yourself that question, what’s the first thing you do? Check out the tourism websites of course!
Building websites for tourism-related businesses is one of our main focuses here at Gray’s Web Design.
Check out this enticing website for Lochaerie Resort on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State www.lochaerie.com:
 Lochaerie Resort, Cabins on the Olympic Peninsula Their website sports an availability calendar customized just for them. Plus they can update every single page of their website. Isn’t it great to be in control?
And besides figuring out where to stay, you want to decide what to do. Here’s a fun site that we just did for Sand Dunes Frontier in Florence, Oregon. This business owner had the idea to embed a variety of videos right into the design. Why be boring, right? www.sanddunesfrontier.com

Why have a boring school website when you use a website to colorfully show off the joy, community, and mission of your school — and still communicate all the little details that a school website needs to communicate?
That’s what Holy Cross Catholic School in Portland, Oregon decided to do. Check it out at www.holycrosspdx.org.
 Holy Cross Catholic School in Portland, Oregon With their fully updatable website, Holy Cross Catholic School can communicate about admissions, events, news and more. But they didn’t stop there. They have photo galleries, a photo-rich page about each classroom, and info about alumni, activities, music, sports and more.
Plus they are using facebook to keep in touch with their families. You can see their facebook page here: http://www.facebook.com/holycrosscatholicschool.
Enjoy!
