Currently we’re wrapping up here in Kingman, AZ. It’s been an interesting week as we re-designed the website for Blake Ranch RV Park & Horse Motel. When you’re going through older websites there’s a lot to watch out for. My fun moment this week happened when the owner stopped by the Airstream to ask me about the music which was …
How do full time RV’ers really feel about WiFi?
This morning in response to a post regarding mobile web updates for RV Parks I received a comment from a regular reader. I was talking about park owners who understand the need for mobilized websites, and those that don’t. And a consistent feature I’ve found is that owners who understand are also regular RV travelers as well. My reader had …
Every website needs images – Are yours legal?
In speaking with business owners across the Southwest we’ve found an interesting trend when discussing the images on their websites. Often times business owners will head out onto the Web and find images they like. Sometimes they’re images from the local chamber of commerce, or the city tourism website, or even off of a competitor’s website. And these are the …
Mobile trends you should know about
This morning I received a mailer from Adobe. They’re the guys who create great software like Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator (just to name a few). The e-mail was titled “Mobile Trends for 2014.” And the information in the mailer was pretty compelling. From the initial statement the tone is set. There are more than 2 billion smartphones on the planet …

Half of all adult Americans have a smart phone – Can they view your website?
Let’s just talk numbers quickly, shall we? The numbers are coming from the Pew Internet Mobile Study in case you’re wondering. Nearly 200 million American adults have a cell phone. Roughly 100 million of those phones are actually smartphones. 34% of the smartphone users browse the web almost exclusively with their smartphone. There are more numbers of course, but I …
Can you really work from the road?
There’s a growing community of RV’ers who now work from the road. RLC Design Services is actually run from a 2004 Airstream. So yes, it’s possible to effectively work at different locations and virtually. The fact that this is still a question on many RV’ers minds is something of a surprise to me. See, I’ve been doing remote work since …
Buckskin Mountain State Park
The latest from Arizona The Airstream is back in Arizona now. After more than a week in the California desert we’ve re-pointed our compass to AZ. Currently we’re contacting parks in the Havasu area that might need web assistance and maybe a quick video tour of their park. In the meantime I thought it would be fun to create a …
Is your RV Park a destination?
Traveling the country we’ve stopped into a lot of RV Parks. Some parks were on the way to our final destination. Other parks of course were the destination. And often times a park that was “on the way,” actually became a destination for us. RV’ers go from Point A to Point B with a goal in mind. Visit this national …
Virtual RV Park Tours With Something Extra
Recently we announced our virtual park tour service here at RLC Design. What we didn’t mention was an extra service included with the video tour……. Aerial photography and video for the parks we work with. Technology is racing ahead, and we like to keep pace with it. That’s why we recently added an “unmanned drone” to our arsenal of …
