Well, it has been hectic here. But pluggin away anyways. To revive the fresh posts here we would like to offer a sales tip. What many websites lack is a call to action. You have to provide a valid reason and something worthwhile to your visitors, then you have to point them to the path to contacting you and/or signing up or buying from you.

This is sales 101. Many existing websites lack a basic call to action. A short paragraph explaining how you are the best and a link to contact you or your contact information just below the pitch.

Without the call-to-action you are shooting blanks. You wrote a good amount of copy but forgot to mention that you are open for business. So in the spirit of being funny, contact us because we are the best web developers around!
