Here is my ToDo list before we
can go live with the site. (of course this page will not be displayed on the production site)
Eric's Done (I think...)
10/10/09 (only shown on Home page)- Changed Services, Added Mich Number, Sue's title,
two links, Moved Important Links, Added Su'e changes to text.
10/10/09 - Added Trucking page (needs work),
Updated all other pages with titles, links, etc.
All pages still need content. As time permits...
Eric's ToDo's (my ramblings)
Banner Image - I still need to look at other banner options. I will be placing different
banners on different pages on the test site to get feedback.
10/10/09 - Still playing with Banner Image
Will add "Inc." to the Image
Page Content...
Many pages are complete but I need to add the final
touches. I want to add an email link, phone number, or both to each page.
I am not a writer,
boy I am not a writer... and a worst speller. But over the years I have made improvements
with my marketing skills. So please make changes to the text. I will not be offended, but
would appreciate your input. As mentioned below, copy and paste the text in an email with
your comments and I will take care of the rest.
Next Steps
Sue - I need you to look over the Home page and see what other changes are needed.
The next step is to start working on each page. Let start with the Site Consultation page.
Can you or family help with the context?
Things I need help with (Anyone can jump in and help here)
10/10/09 - Still need images - or need to know if there are no images.
The idea of a website is to show what you do at vandenBerg Excavating. Even if you really don't
want to do a specific service or whatever... it is a way to get people to see your site
for possibly some other service you provide.
So... I need to know what other "services" do
or can you provide to the public.
I also need you to read each page of the site and agree (or change) what I have written.
If you use your mouse you can highlight the text on the screen. Then copy and paste it to
an email. Make your comments or thoughts and email it to me. I will handle it from there.
I need an image of Paul and Sue (possibly the whole family) for the About Us
Page. This is optional but I think it ads a nice touch.
I also need the words for the About us page. Not much, mostly facts, when you got
started, incorporated, some milestones... not sure what else, but if you could come
up with the "history" of vandenBerg Excavating that would be great.
Sue, what title would you like? I think Office Mgr. would be an option (Pres.) would
be another. But I like the title and it would balance better with Paul's title. So what do you think?
Images... The images on the site are from a company that provides there images.
I have purchased the images (they were cheep). However, any images you have of
work you have done would be great. If you can scan them that would work.
Loren might be able to help with this.
