PASSION & DESIRE
Since 2008, Imaginary Trout has seen its success through open and constant communication with its clients. We aren’t just a development company, we are a communications company, and we put our clients as priority number one. Whether via phone, email or courier pigeon, we make ourselves available to review your needs.
Imaginary Trout is a full service custom development shop that covers the concepting and consulting, designing and UX, development and deployment, hosting and management of websites, web apps and custom databases. In addition to those capabilities, we offer an array of online marketing including but not limited to brand identify and logo development, organic search engine optimization (SEO) and email marketing. Our clients and career experience range from mom and pop shops to Fortune 500’s, to everything in between.
Since 2008, we have developed and worked with a variety of databases and content management systems. One of our most successful executions of WordPress was for an engagement whose services was mentioned on a national news syndication where overnight the website had to scale from 20,000 unique daily visitors to over 900,000. By leveraging a relationship with Automattic (the creators of WordPress), using Varnish, NGINX, and PHP-FPM the highly custom WordPress site successfully stabilized and began serving up over 1M unique visitors daily. Lucky for us those days are long gone and we rely on our hosting partners at Kinsta & WP Engine to scale WordPress proportionally to traffic.
