Mike Averto - Founder
My name is Mike Averto and my passion for new technologies and strong desire to create great websites led to the development and launch of Otreva Designs. I’m the founder of Otreva Designs and part designer, part coder. I have been creating websites since the early days of Geocities and am well versed in design trends and usability with my strength being XHTML & CSS. I love frontend and user interface design as well as branding and WordPress but I also dabble in a bit of code. While the majority of work is done by me, Otreva Designs is made up of a small team of creatives that work on graphic design, print design, copy writing, and branding.
What?
Helping you reach your online goals is the number one goal. I believe Otreva’s success and returning clients are proof of that.
I always aim to provide fresh and easy to use websites and use only organic Search Engine Optimization practices. Developing your brand identity or using your current brand and ensuring the look and feel move over into other mediums like print and advertising is my strength. Creating a site that can separate you from the rest of the pack is difficult but it can provide a strong competitive advantage in your market.
My Skills
When?
Otreva Designs began in 2009 with roots in website design and a focus on customized web marketing solutions.
Where?
Just outside of Scranton, Pennsylvania in a town called Dunmore. For NBC’s The Office fans, yes it is the same Scranton. Located just about two hours west of New York City (depending on traffic) and two hours north of Philadelphia (depending on I-76).
How?
Brainstorming
A group creativity technique that helps generate a large number of ideas for the solution of a problem. I enjoy the process and usually get results while having fun.
Research
Learning about your idea/business and its specific goals is one of my favorite things to do. The process allows me to be flexible and learn what makes you tick.
Feedback
An important part of the process is getting feedback from you as well as normal web users on the overall function, reliability, usability, and creativity of the site.
