Website Review - Virtual Assistant Forums

#1 (**permalink**) 11-28-2009

Hello Everyone! I am back again with another request. So, I changed website hosts from VistaPrint to Weebly. I went from paying $20 a month to $40 for the year, so I figured it was a no brainer! I redid everything on the website and would like anyones input about everything. The layout, the wording, etc. There is nothing truly EXCITING or eye catching because everything is just really simple with this comp.

I will take all criticism!

What a change! It looks beautiful, professional and informative. I promise to read every word this evening when I get home again. Very well done!

Wow Dekota,
Very nice and clean, I love your pdf files and links and resources too. What is missing, some personality. Are you planning on adding a logo or something to "Brand" your site a little more? But great use of space and fantastic information provided. The price is right too.

Cheers!!

Dekota, There are VA's here who would love the chance to design a logo for you if you have some $$ set aside for one. I have never had one perhaps some day.

Cheers!!

Also, i sell mark makeup... should i put the logo on my website for people to click on to lead to my rep site?

I love the colors and design of your website. Very clean and professional. I am in the final designing stages of mine and I don't have a logo. I don't plan on having one designed until I get my business off the ground.

Keep up the good work

Hi Dekota,
I love to design logos - visti my website - I designed the logo for that.
I charge a flat rate of $200 for a logo.

Dakota,

Did you want to market the mark makeup on your VA Website? I think it would take away from the professionalism of your site but here is what I have seen, a link to a new website dedicated to the mark makeup. Since you have found such an economical host it might be worth your while to market both sites at the same time.

HTH

Cheers!!

Hi Dakota.
If you have testimonials. its always good to add them to the site. If you have a photo of yourself and your husband I would add that also - it helps a prospective client to connect with you. I added the code of ethics to my website - makes VA seem more professional
I hope all this helps.
Take care, Barbara.

Take care, Barbara.

Where do you get the code of ethics from and what exactly is that?

Also, I have added links and a search engine to allow my website to be a bit more handy.
If anyone has an opinion about that please let me know.
I have added some pictures so the website wouldnt be so blank and boring
Also, my husband and I are not really much for picture taking lol. The camera doesnt really like us
Let me know what you think of the site and if there are any changes i should make
also it wont allow me to have a logo at the top, which is a real bummer if you ask me!

Thanks!

also, i added a "purchase now" page, that pops down when you scroll over the "services" page. please let me know what you think. weebly seems to be user friendly but i used vista print with both my transcription business and my va business so it was just something i was use to so i just need feedback! thanks!
