on the quote for when you ask for how we found you, google is automatically selected, which means those that can't be bothered to change it will say google so giving you a bad and un-usable reading of how you were found. pay someone to install a script so you can see where EVERY visitor come from, not just the ones who fill the form out and fill that field out.

when i click on the view our new price guide it goes to your quote page not prices page
Many Thanks for the critique. Always nice to get another persons point of view.

I'm slightly unsure of what you encountered with "jaggedy" text in the header as I have since tested the landing page on 3 different computers and in several different browsers and nothing bad experienced. Which browser did you use? Mozilla, IE...? Do you use a MAC or XP operating system?

Also tested the "bad" links to applicable pages and found they all went to where they were supposed to.

Thanks for the heads up on the "where the client finds us" error. I will get this sorted pronto. I am however a stats junkie and have analytics running on my site which also gives me great and informative info. This is always backed up by an email and verbal communication that helps me confirm where my visitors come from. This is all documented in a spreadsheet and analyzed weekly.

The video playing automatically is always going to be a bone of contention. Some will like it and some won't. I have surveyed my customers database and 88% said that the video playing did not bother them. The video is there to serve 3 purposes:

1. An introduction to me and the business.
2. What's in it for the customer when they book a cleaning service with us.
3. A clear call to action.

Since I introduced video to my site, two things have happened. Firstly my conversion rate has increased by 35% when previously it was only 18%. Secondly, video has helped to build high credibility between myself and a cold prospect eg when they book a quote and I arrive at the property they immediatley say "hey you're the person in the video" which gives me the edge in not having to "cold call" because the client already "knows" me.

Thanks again for the info. Hope business is going well for you.

One last thing. You seem to post on the forum without using a name. Forgive me if i'm mistaken as I only recently joined. Would be nice to address you personally.

Take Care

Hughsie

Annapolis Maryland Roof Cleaners is my newest site. We had a couple days of rain here in Maryland so I decided to put it together. It's not complete, but it's up and running.

not so keen. if it wasn't flash it'd be better for pretty much everything. the noise is potinless, how many good sites have noise that aren't for kids? you can't link to any page, e.g. how cnai show someone your prices page? also don't like the half sentence slogans on home area, nor do i like the spining thing on the left, not sure what it even is tbh

Default All Purpose Cleaner - Genesis 950 Cleaner

Genesis® 950 Concentrate eliminates the need for multiple cleaners. This all purpose cleaner can be used on a variety of surfaces to remove countless varieties of unsightly stains, dirt and residue. This multi-purpose cleaner can be kept on hand to tackle anything you need to clean.
Genesis® 950 is a cost effective, non-toxic, all purpose cleaner. Just a little bit goes a long way. For general cleaning, mix 7 parts water to 1 part Genesis® 950 Concentrate. In the washing machine, soak greasy towels and rags in the washing machine for 5-10 minutes with ½ cup of Genesis® 950 Concentrate. Remove carpet and upholstery stains by applying Genesis® 950 Concentrate on affected area for 30 seconds to one minute, brush surface and rinse with water. Grease, tar, ink and vegetable oil can even be broken down when Genesis® 950 Concentrate is applied for just 30 seconds to 1 minute, scrubbed and rinsed with water.
In addition to being a cleaner, Genesis® 950 Concentrate is clean in itself. Genesis® 950 Concentrate is environmentally friendly. Unlike other all purpose cleaners, there is no alcohol, ammonia or bleach in Genesis® 950 Concentrate. It cleans effectively without harmful toxins, unpleasant odors or dangerous chemicals. Genesis® 950 makes cleaning safe for you and the environment.
