Arrow Website Review ...again
Hello All ! Thanks so much for all your input ! I have read and reworked my site, tweaked ..un-tweaked and then tweaked some more lol Below is a link to check it out again ( if you wouldn't mind

I know I still have the page tabs to rename ( as soon as I figure out HOW lol ) the "Clients" page I have renamed to "Customer Service" ...that might work better? and of course "Page 2 " is supposed to be "Our Services" ...I am working on those tomorrow. So just pretend for now that those are correct lol

Hi Sue,

I like your tag line, but your banner is out of focus - both the text & the photo. I'm using IE7 if that helps.

You have a Contact page & a Clients page - maybe I'm dense, but I don't understand the purpose of your Clients page. I think the info you are asking for here is the type I would ask of the client at the same time they sign their contract. I'm clearly missing something here.

On your services page you have: We offer a huge variety of business services to cater client’s needs... I would insert another 'to' before 'client's' for better readability.

Overall your site is nice. I like your color choice.

Thanks Lezly ~

The pages are actually showing as the wrong names ...The "Client" page is the "Customer Service " page, and "Page 2" is actually "Our Services" I'm still working the the tabs for the pages.

On the services page; it is supposed to read "We offer a huge variety of business services to cater to the client’s needs" it is a typo in fact. Thanks for catching that.

I will try to focus the header a bit

Thanks again

~ Sue

Hi Sue,

I want to pop in here to give a suggestion about the Client form. I don't think that anyone will fill out information such as passwords and so forth right on the site. I could be wrong but if I was visiting a site, I believe I would be overwhelmed by the form. I think that it asks for too much information up front. I believe that a potential customer would just make a simple inquiry first and then the rest of the information would be obtained later if they contracted with you.

I like the idea of a client coupon. I wouldn't make the word MUST so bold because it looks more like a shouting demand.

I do like the way your paypal is set up with preset packages. That is very clever. I never thought to use this.

I think the company history should be removed from the home page and replaced with verbiage about what you can do for a client. It's not entirely clear to me what value you offer from the text on the homepage. I would move the company history to a tab under About as this is typically where bio info is offered. Here is a resource I posted here about writing a bio.

The area above the fold is the most important real estate you have (I learned that here at VAF and never forgot it). The information above the fold needs to entice the person into wanting to know more about you as a VA. What can you do for them? What value do you bring to the table for the potential client? Cost IMO is not the main reason for using a VA.

Consider adding something compelling to your pages to get your visitors to do something while they are there. Consider offering something such as a newsletter sign up or a free download. Otherwise they will leave and you will never be able to nurse that lead.

Good luck!

Janine
