Vox Media Studios - Company News

It's hard to believe that the most historical restaurant in Santa Barbara, Joe's Cafe, had no website up until last week!

Vox Media Studios is proud to publish this jewel of local history. Duncan meticulously collected a precise accounting of Joe's Cafe's spectacular past with prose, photos and a detailed timeline while Art worked on programming the look and feel.

The accompanying Facebook Fan Page collected friends fast, zipping past a thousand in just a week.

The site is not yet complete as we will soon add an online merchandise store to compliment.

UPDATE 2/25:

Joe's Cafe's online store is now live. We've also added a nifty drink animation with a countdown to last call.

One of the highest grossing restaurants in the state is our local, beloved fresh seafood restaurant/bar, Brophy Bros. This Boston-style clam bar is located a top our beautiful harbor here in Santa Barbara and has one of the most spectacular views one can find while he sips bloody marys and slurps down tasty clam chowder.

Vox Media Studios is happy to announce the freshest thing in town: a complete makeover of brophybros.com. The new website garners a couple thousands page views per week and is helpful to locals as well as out-of-towners. The live harbor webcam will let you know when to hurry on down, while dozens of links populate the Explore Our Neighborhood area, providing helpful information for those needing accommodations or other things to do when they come visit town (either the Santa Barbara or Ventura locations).

Vox Media is proud to announce the "go live" of a new website for General Racing, LTD. This site was sort of rushed in anticipation of increased traffic as a result of this week's Rolex Monterey Historic Automobile Races. Duncan Westley and Doug Earle agreed that General Racing needed a more modern web presence in time for the races this week, which are expected to bring 40 thousand or more visitors.

In any case, this site is an example of what Vox Media can produce in just over a week.

After this week's races, we will focus a bit more on GeneralRacing.com, adding a more comprehensive information about the company and the events it manages.

Through it's associate In Color, Vox is happy to announce our new ECommerce website, KerneErickson.com. This online store utilizes some of the latest and greatest of a top notch CMS integrated with a state-of-the-art, open source shopping cart system. No licensing fees necessary.

Coupled with the release of the new website is a Facebook fan page. We've also incorporated the fan page into KerneErickson.com.

Kerne Erickson is a world renown painter with a retro style that brings us back to what feels like a better place and time. His store will sell all kinds of apparel, fine art prints, books, cards, and other branded merchandise.

Vox has secured a contract with General Racing to produce a new website for the annual Rolex Monterey Historic Automobile Races.

The new site is almost complete and will go live soon.

UPDATE: The site has gone live, and the client is estatic.

Just wanted to say a huge "Thank you" for getting the web site completed and launched within time and budget. I truly appreciate all the effort put forth by both you [Duncan] and Art to get this accomplished - especially within our limited timeframe. -- Doug Earle
