My budget is small, so I am going to build my own website. Where do I start?
I know that in order for you to have made that decision, you have done basic research. You have found excellent How-To books and wonderful online resources. You have probably also asked a few associates who have chosen that same route for their advice. Yet - there are some gaps that have not been filled. There are missing pieces of information and you are not readily finding the answers on the web. Your website owning friends have told you some horror stories they've encountered. However, they don't really know what to tell you so you can avoid the same traps because they still aren't sure what happened in the first place. You are having trouble connecting the dots...
Your Website Coach can give you the lowdown on what you need to get started and tailor information specifically for your needs. Not sure what type of host you need? Don't know what you must have in your website? Can't quite get a grip on the ever-growing web terminology? Want to use a form but don't understand how to set one up? Your Website Coach can guide you every step of the way.

I built my site and I like it, but it's become stagnant. What do I do?
You've weeded through all the techno-babble and user manuals and built your first business website.
Good job! The site has been up and running for six months and it...well - it's just kind of sitting there. It doesn't have as much pizzazz as you'd like and you're not sure if there has been any activity. You've also noticed that you aren't being found on the major search engines. You're pretty sure you followed all the instructions to being found...
Your Website Coach is a web developer and an educator. I can help you to look at your site with a new pair of eyes and a lot of software development expertise. I may see a color combo that you hadn't considered that makes your site POP! As a developer, I may be able to determine a better layout for your website using your existing graphics, text and tools. The World Wide Web changes at an amazing rate and it is my job to keep up-to-date on what's happening in web development and search engine optimization. We can improve your site using your tools or implementing tools at a low cost.

I'm going to hire a web developer to build my site. What questions do I ask?
As you embark on a new relationship with a web developer, it would be to your advantage to have a framework within which to operate. Face it, you can't make wise web marketing decisions if you don't have the vocabulary or the foundation underneath you. You'll be spending several thousand dollars or more, so getting a second opinion is not a bad idea. It's true, knowledge is power.
Your Website Coach will lay out the process of web development for you so you will know what to expect. I will explain concepts that leave you mystified and I can help you figure out what you want so you can bridge a potential communication gap.

As my mission statement says; "it is my desire to see my clients attain their website goals..." It really is. If there is a way I can improve your website owning experience, then I'd be delighted to talk with you.
