Thanks A LOT for the feedback on my request for help with my site, www.tipsfromthetilepro.com .
The site is still under construction and not yet ready to be out just yet but I was told I needed to get online to begin the submmision process.
We are working on changing most of the text now, that is why this input is greatly appreciated.
Mr. Alexander, I think you are exatly right as to women being a large part of my potential market, I just have to figure out how to attract their attention [a problem I have long had].
Mr. Johnson, the quote is great, may I use it.
On the catalog , there will be 2 more kits availabe, 1 for repairing the walls and retiling , and 1 for cleaning tile floors. There will also be grab bars and non-slip bottoms for the tubs.
OK I admit the info page is a bit corney, it will definitly be rewritten with the emphesis on SELLING.
Could I get by with combining the opening page and the second page? What do you think.
THANKS AGAIN for the help, as you can tell from my post,writing is not my strongest assett.
Ray Vaughn
