It’s really been more than six months that I have been a consistent reader of your blog. The idea of landing page is simply outstanding.

Comment on How to Build a Commercial Website in 37 Minutes or Less by Steven

(Not trying to troll here) but ok Leon, ” I can do custom design from scratch too if anyone can afford it.” assuming you are out of reach for most work because you are expensive? i had a look at your site and it is funny the way you say the above as your site is predated and looks late 90s? Interesting stuff altogether. Also, yes I have installed alot of themes and they include an xml file so it’s not hard at all to amke it like te demo site…

Anywho, getting back on track.

Actually, I’d have to completely disagree with you about not hiring a designer who uses templates :)

Reuse of libraries has always been a vital part of software development. Templates, themes and frameworks are just as important in web development – no web project should ever be started completely from scratch when there are tools like CSS Reset scripts, jQuery and MooTools available. And front end components like Twitter’s Bootstrap, and even graphic elements like icon sets can be really useful. That extends to themes and frameworks too – these can massively speed up site development – as seen in this video!

Good points but what about bespoke work like Ireland.com, why didn’t they get a template (would have been cheaper for a start!?)

Peace!

David – Thank you so much for the offer to show me how to make a unique page. I would like to take you up on it.

I’ve been clicking back and forth on the author link and seeing the subtle difference. When you say that I should submit my name, I didn’t see anywhere to do that except via the posts.

Thank you!
Patricia Haag

Hi David,

Thank you for the super blog post, and in particular for the wonderful example right here on this page! That personalised landing page is a great idea (and Leadpages looks interesting).

Cheers,
Alastair.

@Shari – Thanks for the comment. I’m glad you like the analogy. I wanted one that helped make the complicated simpler. The funny thing about web pages is that we forget that they are just another form of ourselves. When we think about how we make friends we get much better at making sales. If our friends know and trust us, it is easy. But when they don’t, we have to show ourselves more. In the end, we make the sale or realize the desire to know us just isn’t there.
So thanks for posting your thoughts. I value them a great deal.

@Penelope – You should know. You are a gifted writer. I admire so much of your work. Thank you for both your time and the comment.

@Patricia – I am glad you said it was delightful. That is so flattering. Thank-you! About the url – I have created an example in the “About the Author” resource box at the bottom of the post. It is a landing page designed only for people who have read this post – just a distinct page on my own WordPress site.
It’s very easy to make pages uniquely fit the experience and I’d be happy to show you how if you’d like to learn. Just click on the link and and submit your name. I’ll fire up a webinar service and walk you through it. – No charge. It’s my gift for taking the time to ask.

Delightful post on leads! I am curious about “make sure they get a unique url – a sales page designed for them alone.” Have you elaborated somewhere how you do that?

Amazingly simple advice for maximizing profits on your website–but some of the hardest for most people to implement. There is a skill to copyrighting, and most think you can slap up a website and BAM! the profits will come. Sadly, it is not that easy. With these six bulletproof tips, the process should be become a lot clearer. Remember to match the customer’s desire to the sales page! ;)

Hi David,
I really liked your analogy. Your advice to writing is very valuable because most of us do not have a degree or history in this field. What we do have is a multitude of experiences that we can share and create empathy with our prospective clients.
Good read.
Thanks

Comment on Is Your SEO Ethical? by Alastair McDermott

Hi Josefa,

I’ve had look and I can’t find your email in the system, so I can’t manually remove it.

In the emails you received, you should find a “Manage your subscription” link – click that and see if it works. If it doesn’t, let me know here and I’ll see if there’s something else I can do.

Cheers,
Alastair.
