Site Development Featuring Location-Based Search

Russ Silberman September 10, 2020
There are many reasons it makes sense to incorporate a location-finder on a website. The most common example is a retail chain with multiple locations.

Another good example is a professional organization with many members, each having their own brick-and-mortar establishment. Potential customers want to search only these members since they belong to this trusted organization. That is exactly what the New York State Chiropractic Association’s (NYSCA) Suffolk County chapter needed – an easy way for patients to find participating doctors close to them.

Flash in the trash
A few years ago, Adobe announced it would stop supporting, updating, and distributing Flash Player by the end of 2020. Google Chrome and other popular browsers are set to stop supporting Flash this year, as well. And although Flash integration has decreased, there are still an estimated 100 million websites using this soon-to-be-extinct technology.
