Reverb Studios Reviews Suggestion

>> Written on March 4th, 2010 by Leon

Customer Reviews of a companies products or services have become a very big deal online in recent years. Research has shown that if someone reads a positive review of your offering or service online they will be most of the way to buying from you!

On my own blog, the Reviews Category consistently gets more hits than any other and I myself would always look for reviews before buying anything.

I have recently setup a partnership with Ireland’s leading supplier of Review software for websites, LouderVoice. They can supply you with very simple to use plugins for your site that will allow visitors and clients to Rate your service or product and leave comments directly on your site. These reviews can be displayed prominently and should lead to greater sales conversions and excellent customer feedback. Customer reviews can also be routed to Twitter and Facebook for maximum exposure for your site.

Visit www.LouderVoice.com/About for more detailed information or to signup.

Please use the Partner code LV-REVERBSTUDIOS if you decide it’s for you!

Leon.

Domain and Hosting Renewal Advice

>> Written on February 1st, 2010 by Leon

I’m prompted to write this after a recent experience with a client who ignored my once yearly invoice for Domain and Hosting renewal a little too long (one of many!). If you have a website then you will almost definitely get a yearly or monthly bill from either your hosting company or web designer for 2 things at least: Read the full article »

Wordpress and Realex Integration

>> Written on December 23rd, 2009 by Leon

I am very pleased to announce that proper Credit Card and Laser transactions using Realex processing can now be taken on Wordpress powered sites via the Shopping Cart plugin from Tribulant. I think this is a significant development considering both the recent popularity of Wordpress as a full website content management and E-commerce system and the position Realex occupies as one of the world’s most popular credit card processors. I am also glad to have personally initiated, advised and funded the integration.

Custom Web Site and Wordpress Theme Design

>> Written on September 1st, 2009 by Leon

After a year or 2 of installing Wordpress for clients and using initially free, now commercial themes, I’ve now acquired the ability (after extensive messing around!) to design customised layouts and themes for this content management system. Using ready made templates will still be much more efficient and cheaper to the client of course but for people who require highly customised web design while keeping an easy to use CMS, and can afford it, I can now design a look and feel based on full design specs provided by the client.

Prices dependent on specs.

New Site Design for Reverb Studios

>> Written on August 12th, 2009 by Leon

I’m sad to say goodbye to my iPhone styled site which has lasted longer than a lot of other versions I’ve had in recent times. However every site needs a face lift every now and then as content becomes old or you find new ways of expressing yourself or new technology becomes available. My old site was a little slow to load and had a little too much going on content and link wise so I decided it was time to freshen things up and simplify a bit. Read the full article »

New Membership and Content Management Services

>> Written on July 27th, 2009 by Leon

I’ve learned a few new tricks lately! For those of you with a wordpress powered site I can now setup a Registration and Membership section with which you can offer “Members Only” sections with free/premium content available only to those who submit their details to you. Another handy tool for client database generation!

I can also now apply content management to existing static sites enabling site owners to change textual content and upload images as well as change things like Meta keywords and descriptions for each page. This is a quicker and less expensive option than rebuilding your site with a full featured CMS.

Contact me for more details.
