    Viewing 'source' of a website?

    If it can be seen in a browser then it is already on that person's pc and it can viewed in as much detail as they wish. As the other posters have said - life is too short, do what you need to make your business successful and let others worry about their businesses. More often than not people...

    Video Presentations

    I would agree with the majority of posts on this subject. As a professional trainer (in a previous career) one thing I learned very early on is that there are various approaches to caturing attention. Video is just one aspect and it can turn off 1/3rd of your audience as it primarily appeals to...

    Live chat facility

    Livezilla works for me and my clients. Great logs, geo tracking, push option, co-browse option. Best of all it is free. pd2006 - if you have websites then they are already on a server. just ftp to upload the appropriate files and run the setup. Hope this helps

    Google Docs over MS Office

    I agree with OldWelshGuy. Whenever I can I will use OpenOffice. In terms of collaboration I would load to ftp space using version numbers. Downside with Google docs is loss of formatting, although I do use Google for my own stuff that is then shared with clients. Fine for simple documents...

    Setting up a website, eek!

    Setting up a website is a doddle. Getting people to visit it is harder. getting those that do visit to part with money is harder still. When I ask people if they would rather rear their own lambs/pigs/chickens and then have cheap meat/poultry OR go to the supermarket/butchers, guess which they...

    Want to create forum that looks like this

    I have used many free forums for clients - simplemachines, phpBB, and some that no longer exist. Paid for forums are also something I have worked with and templated. The thing I always bear in mind is that it tends to be the free boards that get hacked the most as the source code is often...

Customer rang us to complain and expected to get an answerphone (we ran an adult business) and was surprised when he got to talk to a real...

    Fisicx is right. It is also important to make sure your company details are contained in the footer of any company sent emails. The amount of red tape that is about is unbelievable.:mad: Regards David

    Your first business website - tales of Woe!

    My first website started out as a quote for £3k just over 10 years ago. Being a practical person my first thoughts were "I can do that for half the money but might take twice the time!" I took a crash course in html; investigated shopping carts; and the most important thing I did was to talk...

    Hello David, If you get a chance give me a call or PM me. The stutter is your achilles heel as you already see it as a problem, therefore it is a problem. Nobody has ever been born with a stutter. As a qualified hypnotist/therapist I can give you some pointers to counter the stutter and...

    new business template help

    Hi Ryan, I would suggest that you take some time to sit and create a list of everything you need to know in order to provide an accurate quote to a potential customer. I am presuming that you know your trade and therefore you must know all the problems that could add cost to a job. Make sure...
