YorgoMan on Semiomantics Evo2 and XO

I had to do this for Christ­mas! Yor­go­Man was shout­ing for weeks as he esti­mated that his web­site was out­dated. In fact it was not all that bad, but when he saw the new XO and the Evo2, he just screamed for it.

Well if this keeps him off Facebook .…

The idea was to build a very visual site (these young­sters don’t like to read and write). His Evo2 is entirely media based with photo, video and music galleries.

As the absence of text in the xml files con­sti­tutes a hand­i­cap for opti­miza­tion, Evo2 is paired by an XO 2011. Both sites are inter­linked whereas on the XO we rotate 3D ban­ners with screen-shots of Evo2 and link­ing to the cor­re­spond­ing Page on Evo2.

From Evo2 a link leads back to the blog.

The Word­Press Menu from XO points exclu­sively to the cor­re­spond­ing Evo2 pages; in fact, it’s a copy of the Evo2 menu.

The lower sec­tion fea­tures (for the time being) a 3 col­umn sec­tion from the lower front page sec­tion of XO 2011. There lead to the 3 lat­est blog posts.

There is no side­bar, no image gallery and no footer wid­get acti­vated on the XO. The elim­i­na­tion of the top right and left columns is achieved by enter­ing a large num­ber into the post off­set field.

The logo on the top left is from Evo, whereas we have placed it using the Word­Press back­ground feature.

As the logo is trans­par­ent, we can load most any back­ground along­side to give an even closer feel of iden­tity between XO and Evo2.

As I was build­ing the site, I involved Yor­go­Man who is capa­ble of load­ing and man­ag­ing media con­tent on Evo2. The idea is now to post to the blog every time a new media file is added. The posts will need to link to the cor­re­spond­ing page on Evo2. By doing so, our friends at the Flower shop (Google for out­siders) will get a kick and remem­ber that Evo2 exists, is active and a hot website.

Have a look at YorgoMan.com and let me know what you think .

Make it a Merry Christ­mas too for your Kids! (Sounds like a heck of a lot of work for Boruch — luck­ily X-mas is not an issue there :-)).
