JMO but dump all of the free advertising and garb. Only cost a little more to have the website without it and it will look a lot more professional. JMO
James

PS-If you dump that stuff it will also let you expand the rest of your website and it will look nicer. Shoot me an email if you wanted some info on good pages. I build my own websites but as you can see, I am not a pro at it but do know where a lot of tools are

Bill, the site looks good. The only thing I would change would be the pop up ads.

That is one ugly website. I would try again. Get rid of ads and colors and layout.

Honestly.......... I would hire someone to build it. Yeah it costs money but a good website creates business.
Your website has numerous spelling errors and nouns that show possession that shouldn't. Also the colors are very dark.

I would have to agree with other guests and say that is one ugly website. Pay someone to do it. Your misuse of grammar and complete sentences makes one question how professional the guide service might be.
Sorry but that is the truth.

Well, I'd not say it's an "ugly" website as "guest" so eloquently states. I do agree that ads need to go, and the grammar and spelling need to be improved. Not saying that being a spelling champ makes a good guide, but being well-spoken and well-written go a long way to bringing business and attracting customers.

I've got a website for my fly and bucktail business, and the first thing I learned was to let people do what they do best and don't try something you're not good at. Meaning, yeah, I can go get "websites for dummies" and work on my own site, or I can let my Dad who does websites do it for me. He's good at it, and knows what he's doing. Find a someone versed in web design who can put it together and proof read what you send them. It just looks more professional.

Pics...maybe some pics of your boat and what the potential customer can look forward to fishing in. Let's face it, if someone is going to fork over the cash to fish with you, they want to know what they're fishing in for that money.

As far as the colors, it is a bit dark and looks more like a gaming site (not that I frequent those, but I can imagine lol) than a fishing site. Soften it up a bit, not so dark and more upscale. It'd not be difficult to take a pic of Webster and have that be your background or something like that. Websites are where it's at now. It's often the first and only look a client or customer gets at your before they decide to commit on a product. Make it your best.
