Question by Sameer A: I Have My Own Professional Website/Logo Design Business. I Created The Site In 4 Hours, But Whats Missing?
I created a professional website/logo design business. I created the website but I feel something is missing and I don’t know what. And how would I get more traffic on the website, so I get more customers? I already advertised on Yahoo Chat in the business rooms. The website is http://www.design.zoooogle.com

I took a look and it had promise but overal I found the site uninspiring, cluttered and difficult to understand.

If you are in a professional website design business you need to impress people who get to your site by showing a little bit of the creativity you can incorporate into their web pages. Your test site was too dull!

The home page has got to be clear and concise to hook your audience to continue further–for example — put them on the spot by daring them to hit a button to continue and then incorporate some special effects and demonstration sites to stoke their creative fires.

There are many way to advertise your business. Your local chamber of commerce is a starting point to register and volunteer to do a free seminar on web design. Another idea is to see if your accountant will let you do something similar for their clientele or if you could advertise in their newsletters. In both cases you are trying business to business marketing.

Do a little research around which businesses really need or rely on good websites, then pick a few from your local area and check out their sites.Those with none are good candidates, those with poor sites represent opportunities for site make-overs.

Sometimes you have to go to your customers rather then relying on them coming to you on-line. Let’s face it they are likely too busy working at what they do best to have the time to surf the net and stumble across your site.

Not a very good business plan mate. Most logos are created by graphic designers like myself, we also make letterheaded paper, business cards and websites for our clients, we take care of printing etc. You would need software that could create 300DPI logos, at a high res.

Giving the control to the client will result in a crap logo. Moonfruit website builder has a similar feature, perhaps you could email them.

Also if you obtain this software – you won’t own the software and chances are making money off it will be illegal – try again.
