Just thought I would give some feedback on the website since its launch three weeks ago.
I took on board some of your thoughts/recommendations and changed a few things. I also added a blog, which has been live for a few days and is already on the first page of Google when a search is done for videographers in this area. I have been updating it daily and from zero traffic it got 65 page visits yeasterday. Consideringits a wedding video blog for a certain area, its a "must have".
I can also report that I have picked up 5 confirmed ( deposits with me in the bank) bookings since the new site went up three weeks ago. These are people who have not met me, and just found me online, liked the site and called me up. Three of the five are out of the area but asked if I would travel. Of course I will provided they pay for a hotel overnight plus fuel, and the deal was done.
I know there's a couple of "niggles" with my site. The font is too small and I couldn't get the form to email me the message so removed it for now) buut I changed font size and the site looked like crap.
I am having a record year. I got two bookings today from a wedding fair and turned down three who wanted days already booked. Things are looking good and while my rivals have cut back on advertising and hide in their shell, I am reaping the rewards. Don't bury you heads in the sand. I will start a new thread with a few thoughts.
