Websites

[Couch Potato]

It is indeed important to remember your web site is the image of your company for many clients. Make sure it portrays your company as you want it to be seen. Avoid condescending content, for example links that read "click here" as though they would not know what to do with a link, or putting words like use this number to call us next to a phone number (the client knows what to with a phone number.) Avoid the use of stock photos, use real content related to your company.

Been there. I don't mean to offend, but you got ripped off. Have you filed suit yet for that POS? It looks like something one of my high school students would do before they learn anything about good technique. The problems are not anything that can't be fixed. It's not a bad start, but you should have gotten something nicer for $1000.

Visit http://www.joomla.org/

Put some love and effort into your site for free with excellent unique options for site layouts. Joomla allows your website to do anything you could possibly imagine, at no cost, outside of some worthy time and sweat. It is a content management system, free to all, based on a slew of pre developed code. All you have to do is learn the system and you are golden for developing and maintaining your site, long term.

Well ive seen yours http://gregmyersappraisal.com/ and I would keep mine. We get about 150 online orders per month directly from the site of "new clients", and about 500 - 600 visits per day.

See its not just about the "content" of the page but how the page is formated for search engines, web crawlers, spiders, referral services, blogging and cell phone usage (ordering from your cell phone).

The page it self is easy to create however the logistics of everything else is what seperates from being a asset to your company or just a website.

Greg,

I like this line: I do not provide value guarantees, it is against North Carolina law for an appraiser to do that, so please do not ask.
