New Website - Opinions Please

[Ecstatic Events]

Thanks once again for the comments.

I will pay a professional to do the job, eventually

I did say I was NO web designer.

looks very good to my untrained eye so much so i had a go myself....

Charlie, why would I spend an entire day "trying" to do it myself if I could afford to pay someone to do it???? And you need to get out more if you get "excited" over websites

I put myself in a B&G's point of view. Unfortunately, your site doesn't stand out (in comparison) to other competitors.

A quality website is the same price as a good wedding. That website will generate 20+ 'good weddings'

It's easy.

I like the logo......


But hate the website I.M.O.

Sorry.

I don't think it quite works like that, Chalrie.

I don't think it quite works like that, Chalrie.

I aggree how do you get that conclusion Charlie

Well Martin (Vectis) has managed to secure me 35 weddings for 2011 (so far)

I don't do wedding fayres or spend a bomb on other marketing, apart from UKbride and £20 a month to Yell.com. Unfortunately, they haven't generated me any work. Getting professional websites made has been the best thing I've ever done for the business. I know other VV customers will agree.

I know it's worked for you, but if getting a website made was going to guarantee at least 20 weddings, everyone would have done it by now.

I couldn't agree more.

Once I posted my new CBE site on MDD at least 9+ members decided it was time to have a revamp on their own website. Nobody has complained...apart from the amount of work their getting.

It's not rocket science. What do you do when you're looking for something/someone/a service/a location....you Google it. If you're high up in the Google ranks (something a web designer would do for you) and have a decent site...people WILL make enquiries...Then it's over to you to sell yourself and make sure they book you and not Joe blogs.

Some forum members complain/mention a lack of enquiries via there website. Normally they would have made the website themselves or not have good SEO etc.

A good decent website will guarantee you some bookings. Fact.

I'm sorry but that is just not true.
