 In this installment of Websites We Love, we asked our Internet Marketing Facebook communityhow they encourage their customers and/or Website visitors to get in touch with them. As usual, we received a number of awesome responses, but had to choose just ONE winner. This week's Website We Lovecomes from Erica Jayne Clavin, who thinks that when it comes to customers getting in contact with her, simple is sometimes best! "I encourage visitors to fill out a simple contact form connected to my website email," she says. |

 It’s week two of Websites We Love, and we received a number of great responses from our Internet Marketing Facebook Communityabout what they’re
most proud of when it comes to their site. It was very difficult for us to
choose just ONE to feature here on our blog, but we had to crown a winner! This
week’s Website We Lovecomes from Jennifer
Gates, who is most proud of her site’s design. We agree, and think the
design is awesome! We’re also big fans of her super-creative business name, "Cake Placid. |

When thinking about how to showcase all the great sites our customers build, we came up with a neat idea: ask our Internet Marketing Facebook Communityto share theirs! We received such a great response, we're turning it into a weekly feature. Every Wednesday, we'll highlight one awesome site here on the blog, and on our Facebook page.
As we mentioned, we received a ton of great responses, so it was very hard for us to choose justoneto highlight. Our first Website We Love comes from Lisa Draisey of |

 Whether it’s at work, a restaurant or the gym, it seems as though iPhones, Androids and iPads are everywhere. According to Digital Buzz, that’s not very far from the truth; in fact, mobile devices are fast becoming the most popular way to access the Web. But what is the difference between a standard website and a mobile site? The easy answer is accessibility. Imagine trying to fit everything on your home page onto your phone’s screen. Not pretty, right? It would be overcrowded, difficult to read, and even harder to navigate. |

 We get it — when it comes to getting listed online, the
process can be overwhelming. The first
step is understanding what terms such as “local search” and “organic search”
mean, and how they relate to your site.
Key Terms
Local Search: The basic definition
revolves around geography. Results are displayed when a potential customer
searches online for a product or service within a specific geographic location.
For example, if you type “landscaping, Boston” into Google, Yahooor Yelp,
it will return Local Search results for landscaping businesses in Boston. |

Over the past few months you have given our team great feedback on our suite of Internet Marketing products and how we can improve them. We truly appreciate this feedback and it allows us to our products updated and fresh. We have recently rolled out two improvements to the photo functionality from this feedback and wanted to give you an overview of the changes.
Light-Boxes
Updating the light-boxes for single images was the first improvement we made. When a visitor to your site clicks on any of your images to “view larger,” they’ll see a light-box that highlights your picture. |

Have you ever felt overwhelmed before sitting down to build your first website? Do you stare at your computer for hours hoping that it will build itself? Do you constantly ask yourself: “Where should I start?”
I know how hard it can be to get your first website off the ground, especially if you’re new to internet marketing. We’ve all wrestled with major decisions from “What’s the purpose of my site?” to “What type of design to use,” to “What kinds of pages should I include? |

With some feedback we’ve received, we’d like to announce a few changes that you’ll see as you enter the builder to continue to work on your website.

A website will almost always be a work in progress, launching one is not easy if you don't have the right tools and support. There are always tweaks to be made and changes that will affect the user experience, traffic and overall theme of the pages. But there are also a few key mistakes that people typically make when it comes to starting from scratch. This morning Jeremy and I sat down to go through some of these key mistakes and while it was originally a large list we have refined it down to these 10. |

 Have you ever heard of the term “above the fold” when it comes to newspapers? Well it also refers to the area on websites. “Above the fold” refers to the area of a computer screen a person can see without scrolling up, down, left, or right. Just the other day, a customer asked me where the best spot to put a PayPal button was on their site. My answer was “above the fold.” I began thinking about my answer and felt like this is a very common question. |
