Help needed on website design

[charl]

Hi geeks,

Sorry not a very interesting thread.....but theres one thing i havent quite accomplished yet in advertising and that is having my own website!

By the looks of it, this seems to help most nail technicians with gaining some clients so i thought it might be worth a try.

Question is, how do i go about doing this? What website company have you geeks gone with to help promote your business? Do you have to design it by yourself? Is it a one of fee that you have to pay or do you have to pay monthly?

I haven't got a clue, can anyone advise?

Thanks guys,
love charl xx

Hi! There are lots of Free websites if you feel up to making your own, a lot of the geeks here have done this. But if you need help and want someone to make one for you, you could give Seanny (he's a memeber here) a shout - he's built websites for quite a lot of the Geeks here and I'm sure they'll be happy to give you their honest opinions. His prices are very reasonable and all the websites he builds are optimised to be search engine friendly -


here's a link to some sites he's built

Hey Hun

first off I had a freewebs one, totally free but it has banner ads etc on it and the address is freewebs.com/your website which i felt wasnt quite as professional, although you can upgrade to more advanced service with them i think

then another geek suggested microsoft office live, I love it, totally free (first two years i think) and small monthly fee after that, very easy to design and good helpline too

Office Live for me too, hope the PM helped x

Mine cost me £3 per year it's only one page and my husband said it was very easy to set up.

All you need to do is sign up for a domain and the one page site is free.

You can purchase Namo WebEditor from a pc retailer like PC World for about £18.00. It gives you templates to build your own website and is very straight forward to use. I have used this to produce two websites and would recommend if you want to try having a go for yourself.

I used 123-reg.co.uk brought my domain name and used their templates etc, think its cost me £15 a year in total for a really smart looking site which I can update as often as I want and you can have up to 10 pages and a personalised email address, and SEO which is always good.

Also to everyone who wants to boost their traffic I would like to do my bid and offer to advertise you free of charge on LNG Nails, feel free to pm me.

I've designed a few websites for geeks on here, Judy Archibald - Nail Artist and Nail Creation Team UK Educator , Hair and Nails by Dee , Trans Friendly Waxing and Permanently Natural - Professional Permanent Cosmetics by Catherine

I design all my sites from scratch rather than using off the shelf templates. Also, if you already have leaflets, brochures, etc, for your salon, then I can design the website to compliment the look of your existing material.
