Stock photos to be used as required/suitable;
I want to be able to edit the content once it's up so will need guidance on how to do that.
SEO, metadata etc required. I can provide keywords.
Allow for a search site featue and one or two features that could be added to look good and be useful (including any suitable marketing ideas please).
I want to move away from btconnect who are current hosts (maybe godaddy.com?) so please guide/help me through that.

Ken,

Do you have the URL of your current site? And do you have any preference as to what language the website is coded in i.e. HTML/ASP/PHP?

Regards

Mark

Hi Mark, its on-line-consultants.co.uk but is very old indeed. I think HTML will do (not basing that on much). I will post a typical page. Cheers, Ken

Hi Ken,

Would you want to use a CMS (content management system) or would you be happy opening and editing the files using a free HTML editor installed on your PC?

Thanks,
Dan

Hi Ken

i've had a look at your current site.
Please have a look at my profile where you will find a list of sites i've done.

The register form on your site, do you know what language that uses to send the email to you? to find out open the

On the marketing side of things i would recommend a newsletter signup area and then sending regular news letters to the people on the list. also a blog/news section on the site that you can update yourself with new content.

With SEO side of things i can tell you why you might be struggling at the moment with this. you only have one page, I know you have links to other pages but your url does not change because the site is built in frames which is a big big no no if you want a modern search engine friendly site.

It would be a push to get this all done for under £250 but if you like my work and initial ideas for the site then let me know and i will be happy to bid for this project.


regards

Adam
