Title: Most important thing on a website
Post by: idealrob on April 10, 2011, 08:40:15 pm: Looking to get a website,just wanted your thoughts on the most important thing window cleaners need on a website. Is it online payments, or are customer just after a phone number to ring and view all window cleaners the same.

I'm surprised you haven't got one, you have a large business in the north east? or is that your dad? OR have I got the wrong person? ;D

I just remember you once saying something that has stayed with me, it was about your dad & the business he built. ;)

Woody i would say just 'one of his jobs' I KNOW he does up here *(northeast) probably equals most other window cleaners yearly turnover. ;D

I would say it's beneficial to have a "web-presence" & it's also a chance to advertise your services, company & to show your professionalism to any would-be clients. ;)

I've got a free one, it looks very smart & within 6 weeks I got on page 1 of google for all my areas! From zero knowledge too! ;D

Yes business was started and built up by dad, sadly he died last October aged 85, and he still at 85 was giving his opinion and technique on using WFP. Yes we did build & maintain a good business cleaning windows since 1955, and still going well today, with 3rd generation.
thanks

Contact number & address
Area's you cover (you'll be surprised how many forget this bit!)
REAL photo's of you at work,.. some MUST show your face.
A personal guarantee of some description
