offer home page webhosting: improve album product upload; improve our slideshow on welcome page
1 Make our home page a full website welcome page for customers. With drop down events lists and/ or a menu page of the page our visitors see currently; include a video slide show [larger]; templates are fine; this makes easier for photographers to maintain.
It would attract more photographers to your business. I am shopping around for a trendier option to the host web co I have at present. Every host company I research has a store front included in my service package. I am happier with your company. I have been here for a couple years and you have earned my trust. I wish I could just make my site with your company my my website welcome page. But, that will not work for me with photographer welcome pages looking as modern and inviting as they do. Although, maintenance and uploading to one site would be a big plus for me.
I have really enjoyed your company. Making an eye-catching Welcome Web page with attractive large slideshow; place for logo; one or two menu options (which you currently offer on your site already, i.e. contact us, search, events lists, ) would make it easier for me as a photographer. Thus, creating the desire for me to not look elsewhere.
2 I offer custom albums to my customers. Currently I experience much difficulty with the album products option. ex; being kicked out of the site after upload and update; album pages not refreshing after deletes and uploads...I have to delete the entire album and create the album from scratch again, I would like to offer album/products for multiple event types but not all. And, once I choose an event I cannot change it.
3 slideshow does not allow easy upload of pictures. Lightroom has slideshow module, could we upload a modest sized slideshow of our current work via lightroom to our client welcome page?
These are just a few ideas off the top of my head. Thank you for considering my needs. I am a starter photographer. Which means I do everything myself from creation to advertising and marketing. If I could combine some areas and departments of my business, then maybe I could actually make some money. I think we could both do with that!
