I know what you are thinking
Oh No another web site post. Well YES Here it is http://www.icentertainment.com I have made a very simple site- I will be adding some better images as well as doing the meta tags and title pages in the next few days But check it out. I used to have a SUPER FLASHY web site but now it's very simple (I think) Any comments |

Much much better I think.
Bits I like Great copy, great photos of happy clients, good use of package deals, easy to find contact info. Like the call to action at the bottom of the page Bits I don't like Lose the flashing text! I can't read it! Also, your name and title is lost in the pics at the top. |

COOL thanks mate.
Did you get my personal email with attachment??? I'll be redoing the flash bits or just having JPEG images (you can read it on my PC) and also Meta tages and Titles of pages. Did you hear the audio on the show package pages- I like them. what do you think Cheers Mate Dave |

What is your name and number? Well, I adventually found them. I would include your number on more pages, and not just on the contact page. That is the most important thing. You want cumstomers to see your number. And know your name...Nicholas already said about your name blending in at the top of the page. That is something that needs to be fixed. You want people to know your name right when they look at the site.
I like everything else though. It is easy to get around and looks nice. -Tyler |

Cheers for those comments
I'll place my contact details at the top of the index page and on every show package page. I'll think of something with the header |

Okay, the new header looks great. Now, your name and number are on top of each page. Keep up the good work...

David,
You asked for input. Your photo might be more effective if you had something in your hands (cards, a wand, rabbit, silks). have a different photo at the top than the one below. Keep the blurb short: Voted Sydney's number one "Sleight of Hand Magician." If it's current, add the years (2004, 2005). What does this mean: "David has a background in hospitality working up to management for companies such as Accor, Furama, Club Med and Star City Casino." Are you doing magic, catering or acting as a valet? Did you become a member of management in these companies, or perform for top corporate executives? Takes Free photos... free for the patrons, business owner or both? The most important info should be visible without scrolling down. Consider one or two quotes and buttons to take poeple to the diffent services you offer. Not trying to be hyper-critical, but it's the same questions I put to my employees when they are designing graphics for a customer. Best wishes. David
Yes, I am a magician. No I did not make my hare (hair) disappear... it just took early retirement.

Hi Chris- Um Plug in my programs- Forgive me but I don't know what that means
NICK: It doesn't flash on my web site but I have changed that now or will in 3 hours (it's 4.30 right now in the arvo) djbilan G'day mate, Thanks for the feedback The reason for the hospitality bit is I do more roving shows than anything. From My experience there are a lot of magicians in sydney that can perform great magic BUT they lack the professional touch when it comes to the performance & Delievery of the magic. My hospitality experience gives me a point of difference- I have been trained to "BE" in a 5 star event or establishment- I'm not just a guy doing tricks. If people read the next paragraph the'll understand. it's like my bio on the first page. The show packages on the first page are why people are at my site in th first place- They are my products and should be on the first page I'll get rid of the Hospitality bit- and fine tune the show packages on the first page so people can see all the show packages straight away and go to them. Thank you all I'll be back soon I gotta run to the post office Cheers, David Welzman |

David,
The changes have made the site leaner and better to read. I'm sending you a PM about a couple of things. David

Some words were flashing (bullets etc) but it is MUCH better.
A very small thing...I'd consider getting rid of the white around your image when its on a black background. It looks a little unprofessional. I like the packages up front, they work well. |

I agree, your site looks great and is very easy to navigate. The only thing I see missing is the font tags for the bullets. They only show up as the letter R on my browser instead of the bulleted effect you are after.

Those R's are windlings font which are not installed on your browser You gotta update your fonts I think. Nick- Easier said then done- I'll try to do it but It's a lot of messing with the image editor and flash (which I don't wan to do) Thanks djbilan Cheers |

I think the key is that a site is only as good as how many people know you exist there on the web. So once you have your website created and set up to your target audience, what are ways you use in order to get more traffic to your site and turn that traffic into prospects who will act upon your site for more information etc. I have ways that I have used on my own site, but would like to here thoughts from others here.

Currently my site is split into teo parts
wedding and corporate You'll see a link at the top of the page to go into the wedding section. I have joined a few wedding web sites - (These are wedding supplier sites) in Australia which direct people directly to my wedding web site and it's very successful.- I get quite a few enquiries there The corporate site was really bad- not many bookings - so I changed it to what it is now. One of the problems is that my web site is a .com- I don't show up on the Australian Google search which is a problem (it would be better if it was .com.au) I am using google ad words a bit- quite targeted- so with roving entertainment I would have only keywords associated with Roving, ie street theatre (although I really hate that term) strolling, wandering- etc and also cocktail party's 1 for stage 1 for trade shows- although it's expensive to get a good position I have paused the team building one- It cost a bit with no return. anyway more later |
