I just wanted to know if anyone can tell what I do and offer.




www.exit-plans.com


IT"S STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS. I know I have typos.etc....

It seems everyone is selling IM stuff. Well I'm not. This is for my own service business. NOTHING about making ga-zillions online.

The type of business that I have can be fully automated for online since I don't have to visit the client to do the work. I'll do that to generate leads.

I'll probably need a whole new website to do it.


Thanks

    Hi Ron,

    When I first arrived to the site, I had to read the content before it became clear to me exactly what the site was about. You have a bit of a headline in blue which is what immediately draws the eye, but the headline doesn't really explain much.

    I would suggest making the headline bigger and change it so it's apparent immediately upon reaching the site what the benefit is of being there.

    Maybe something like:

    "Former Pepsi Cola Executive Reveals How To Get The Most Money Possible When You Decide To Sell Your Business"

    or something along those lines.

    best regards,

    Laredo

        yes, of course.

        though I just came up with it on the spur of the moment and you may want to brainstorm a little bit to make it even better. But if you like it, by all means feel free to use it.

        best regards,

          I'll probably have to change it up a little to make my keywords fit. That's the reason why my headline is not so compelling. It was hard to use the longtail kw's to create a headline.

    Why image based links? Change to text for usability as well as SEO value.

    Hi ron

    The site is nice. Very professional based on my standards..

    I just noticed that the image based links are quite slow to refresh..it doesn't get highlighted quickly..

    Aside from that, IMO the format and graphics are great..I just didn't read the articles...So I've got no comments regarding your contents..

      Actually you've given me what I was looking for. To be honest, I know my subject matter very well so my content was not my concern. I may need to do ongoing editing but that's to be expected.

      Also I am trying to pre-sell users more so than sell them. That's why none of my content is "salesy". Just a good online education is what I want to provide.

      Hopefully the user will begain to trust my knowledge and eventualy hire me.

      Thanks.

    Ron,
    What Tyrus is trying to get across is that you're using image-based links on the navigation bar on the left of the page. When Google crawlers see the image, they see only the image. However, if you use text links (which can still have the rollover-type effects), google will be able to include those words as keywords when it crawls your site.

      I used a WYSISWYG template so I do not have the capability to change it.


      Thanks for the info.

    I also wonder if you might consider organizing the links on the left a bit better. Right now, they don't seem to be ordered or arranged in any particular way. While I'm not a potential customer (yet!), I suspect you might want to put these into some sort of categories. If not, you might consider at least alphabetizing them.

    You website is very ok except for some minor adjustment you need to do like making the head line a little more pronounced and authoritative.

    Former Financial Analyst Reveals - Should be bigger and bold.

    "How To Get The Most Money Possible When You Decide To Sell Your Business." - Is ok in red should be bigger than your content.

      It's not designed by a pro. I did it myself. I know it looks like a amature did it but it was within my budget. It's a start. Once I start making some more money than all that will change.

      As far as the red, I could not figure out the HTML to make it bigger. I'll have to find it somewhere on Google...

      I'll make those changes.


      Thanks

        Ron, what objective are you trying to achieve on this page? What action do you want the visitors to take? I am guessing you want to collect some information and then take them further down a sales funnel. Currently it just looks like an information site with no good call to action or clarity on what you want a visitor to do.

          I know I'll have to revamp the homepage. You're correct one all fronts. I'll probably redo do my free report as well.

          I kind of noticed there was no direction.

          Thanks for the mention.
