small website update - Paint Talk

Dunbar Painting · 03-22-2010, 01:04 AM

Hi,

I introduced myself last week and had some feedback about sprucing up my website.

I just changed a few things: added a picture of me in the about section, added my methodology section to the about section, added a new picture to the home page, and added a tab for testimonials which I am currently gathering from customers.

Thoughts? better? more advice?

Let me move this to the technology section for you.

I like the your approach. Really relaxed and personal. Keep on adding information to it.

Great start! =)

"Your home. Your neighbourhood. Your style."

You might try this line in a smaller font and see if you don't like it a touch better.

Wow! Can I get that physics prof. to write me a review????

Site looks fine.

Looks good. Maybe move the "methodology" to it's own tab? Hard to see under the about me, which is very nice!

I like the nice neat look of the site and It is easy to navigate. There are numerous things to mention about the site, and on a couple different levels, but the first and foremost is that I would suggest updating your content / text of the website to sell your services!

Remember that just by having a website doesn't mean that your prospective clients are going to be drawn into it... You have to get your point across quickly and wow them in the process. They say that a prospect's attention span when visiting a site is about 7 seconds, but I think that it's fewer than that. My point being is that your home page is merely name, rank and serial number : Company Name, Painting Services Provided and phone number... That doesn't tell anybody why they should choose you as their contractor of choice.

So for starters, come up with more text on your site that includes a hook for each type of service that you have. That should be your first and foremost project to work on. Good luck and keep up the good work!
