Dave,

Looks much sharper.

Is this your first site or have you been going a while?

How do you rank on search engines?

Cheers,

Doug

Rank in the first page lancashire area, not my first site have changed and changed but its always the same when you are just doing something your way and never look at the broarder picture, as they say a few heads are better than one, i still have a few changes to make yet, thanks for the input, gratefully appreciated (ps always wandered what the spell checker was for)

Hi Dave,
the only thing I noticed with your website was you advertise domestic cleaning but dont mention general house cleaning in your team of specialists. this may suggest you dont do general house cleaning to dummies like me!
anyway, the real reason Im replying is I need advice on how to create my own website without much cost and without going through other companies to rip me off--- can u help?
ps
not done this before as I am a bored and broke nurse with spare time on my hands and need to earn extra cash (like everyone), I do have an industrial carpet cleaning machine and some products though :

Dave,
Had a quick look at your website. I think it it is impressive but would benefit from a good proof read. e.g. on home page " builders clean" is repeated twice. The question is, though, do you get increased business from your website?
My own website (much smaller) did not appear to generate any business, so I have taken it off to redo and improve.
Has anyone got a really successful website?

Regards Alan

Its not a case of working or not working, it doesnt matter if i dont get any work as a direct result of the site, what does matter is the fact that when i go to meetings with a lot of new prospective clients and even my exsisting ones it is used as a presentation aid,

How many times have you been talking to your clients or even people that you know and have been talking about other jobs that you have done and the customer replies, 'i didnt know that you did that'
or 'i had that done a while ago'   'if i had known that you did that also i could have used you'

Well the fact is that my customers know from day one what we do and as two very big custmers call us their one stop cleaning shop it obviously has an impact, we have worked nationwide for 2 customers in the last 2 months and have earned in excess of 30k from them, the ironic thing is both of these customers were originally carpet cleaning customers,

You never know who you are talking to, or what the man in a pub does for a living, he could be the next Richard Branston.

The key to getting new business and marketing is only the same as what a very experienced CC does when he gets a stain, he combines a bit of this and a bit of that, but more importantly he uses whatever tool he has to its full potential, the biggest tool of any salesmen in the world is his mouth and more importantly its free, so for all the people who keep asking the same old question

 ' how do i get new business'

What works for one seldom works for others, thats why we all advertise differently design leaflets and advertising differently, (apart for the JP Brigade and the only reason i havnt gone down this route is that i havnt seen any millionaire ccs using this teqnique

You must simply engage your brain, have a long term plan, dont expect miricals in the first year or two, work hard and research you market properly, that is the only way your going to suceed.

Here endeth the lesson

Hi Dave

I think the site looks great. The images on the front page create a professional first impression which is what it's all about.
