If I was shopping for a contractor, Id appreciate a site without the rhetoric. If I came across such a site, that was sincere and "humble". That s who I would call. Problem is... i m a contractor, I don t think like a customer. Most of the time, I have a hard time guessing what the customer is thinking. I try to tell it the way it is. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn t.
Another problem is, you have to fill all that space that s normally filled in with BS. Maybe you can post more pictures of your work.
One site that a local "Home Improvement" contractor has. Uses a lot of links that a homeowner could use to get info. He also has a lot of useful info that's presented as "infomercials", of course he plugs himself through out. Home owner maintenance schedule, benefit of energy efficient windows, benefit of gutters, so and so forth. Personally I despise the guy, most carpenters here do. He pays his monkeys peanuts, He's a city slicker, Carries more weight in jewelery on him, then I have in tools in my belt. Most of all I hate him, cause he's busy. Mostly because he self-promotes ad nauseam.
Some of the stuff on his site though is well thought out, once you get past all his BS and "testimonials". If I ever get a web site up and running I would probably borrow some of his ideas. Just have to tailor it, more to the type of work I do. Heh, imitation is the highest form of flattery. Guess I have to give him some due.
