Who said training can't be fun?
We held a training session this weekend
and used a couple new ideas to get somebody started off
on the right foot. Even better, this is something that
is sure to be fun for all of our readers.

Premium cleaning company web templates
We added
Premium Website Templates this month and used
a 'guinea pig' who was completely new to web design to
put together a purchased package. To our
amazement, he was able to complete the website in 30
minutes less than we anticipated. You can
see his project at:

Location, location, location!
Don't forget that one of the single most important
includes for your cleaning company website should be the
cities you provide service to. We hear almost
daily from people wanting to rank well in their state or
the counties in their service area but remember--most
people who are looking for you are searching at the city
level, few are doing searches by county and even less
will be searching on a state wide level.
Additionally, if it is too much work for people to
figure out if you service the area they are in they are
much more likely to hit their back button and continue
Googl'ing for a cleaning service.
Presentation is Everything
Free email addresses and ISP emails
are great for personal use but look less than professional to
your customers. If you have domain mail but are not sure
how to use it visit our POP mail support forums at:
