Torrance, CA -- (BUSINESS WIRE SYSTEM) — January 19, 2002 -- Magnetic
Component Engineering, Inc., a California Corporation, located in the City of
Torrance has announced that it has released it’s new improved faster website.
The new interface website has been developed to accomplish faster loading and
lighter running (not using any plug-ins). The interface is user friendly so that the site can be used effectively
for data. This version further eliminates
the distractions with vivid colors, pictures and pop-ups that typically appear
in today’s sites. Again, the emphasis
is on allowing the visitor information quickly and effectively. The key points involved in designing this
new site were fast access, minimum distractions, and a respect for the user’s
time.The site was written in
Microsoft’s ASP (Application Service Provider). Data is fed from the Microsoft SQL server.Hosting is done internally through a T1
connection.
The design involved using a consistent look and feel from the first page (home
page). The previous website was
constructed using frames, and navigation was accomplished using JavaScript. This has been changed, thereby eliminating
the need for java plug-ins. The site
navigation is now done using html codes, thereby eliminating any conflicts for
users that have java plug-ins turned off. This allows users in large organizations that block java for security
reasons to be able to use the site without errors. Additionally, important information such as the telephone number
and address appears on every page, making it easy for the customer to contact
the company.
Mr. Chris Nanji, the General Manager, said “Our objective is
to keep it plain and simple for the user. We do not expect our users to have to learn how to use our site; they
came to our site for information, not to go to school on using custom
websites.Additionally, we want to
continue to show our users that we respect their time, we understand that they
need information quickly and easily without distractions.”
The president, Ms. Montgomerie, stated “as usual, I am proud
of the new development in our web technology and our IT Dept. that is
continuously keeping their fingers on the customer’s pulse.The feedback from our customers was taken
into consideration, and they made the right decisions to give the customer
value, not an art show!”
Mr. Brian Beeler, the National Sales Manager, said, “it may look simple, but
that is our objective. When the user is
on our site, they are interested in information quickly.Our new site achieves this in no uncertain
terms. The feedback that I have
received indicates that we are being judged on the content and value of the
information, not on the sites beauty.”
Mr. Jon Simpson, the Western States Regional Sales Manager said,
“removing all the distracting jargon, and implementing the simple approach is
the way of the future. We have seen
adequate beauty on the Internet and we know that there is a lot of artistic
talent out there. But for an
organization such as ours, that is interested in giving the customer
information quickly, artistic talent is not what counts, but rather relevant
data on demand is what matters!”
Magnetic Component Engineering, a manufacturer of permanent magnets, RF
Magnetics and magnetic assemblies, has been a mark of quality and speed in the
industry. Lead times for production and prototypes are generally half of
what the industry has been quoting. Magnetic Component Engineering set a
standard for high-speed accurate manufacturing in 1992. It has since
become the vendor of choice for the aerospace, defense, computer, motor and
medical industries.
