Jeff,

Go to this site's home page.  Look for Memberlist and click on that.

You'll get a list of every member.  On that list look for the Website column and click on members with a website icon by their name.

As Wavie says, that'll be a fiver.

jeff,

take a look at ours http://www.freshwatersystems.co.uk
it's simple so it loads quick, I take most of the pics and then use photosohp to edit them down in size & quality, and I use dreamweaver to edit the pages.

Always ask for permission to use other peoples pics, as they will have copyright on them

Hi Chris,

Do you build sites then?

ProPole

[jeff1]

WOW! Guy's keep 'em' coming keep 'em' coming, some great sites.

The cheapest and best web-site builder I have found todate is JOUK45's  Son (wee Joe) he has built quite a lot of site's for the guy's on here and some very impesive one's to.

I took Tosh's advice and went to the members list to scour your web-sites, I was very supprised how many links never worked, and how few window cleaner only webs there are.

I must admit I have only done the first eight pages. but will scoure the rest of them, if you do have a web-site then can I suggest you make sure your link works to your site, or you could be loosing money.

Hi Chris,

Do you build sites then?

ProPole

Purely on an amateur basis/Hobby

Chris

[P®oPole™]

I have been quoted £100 a page is that any good?

[jeff1]

Hang on Propole I'll find out for you what I can.

[Sarah Sarill]

Can I make a suggestion here guys.

Get your self along to your local Adult education/Learning school. Enrol in a basic web design course and build your own. 

I joined in April, it was FREE.  One of the other candidates even gave me a copy of Dreamweaver to instal.

If you do that you can alter, ammend and update your web pages as much as you like.

If you want it all singing and dancing then do the second course too.

Just a suggestion guys.

Sarah

Heres some web sites he has built, he will work with you to get the standard you are looking for flash banner, dynamic information, good looking layout he is curently building a website porfolio for people to view samples.  heres a few sites which he has done. email him at joeontherun@blueyonder.co.uk
if you need a web site, or anything built,

£100 a page...that's scary. .as Sarah said, its not rocket science, nowadays you have no real need for html knowledge, unless you want a super all singing site,

If you can use a word document, then you can build a site, for a round £30-40 a year(and that's more or less as many pages as you want!!) if you have the general idea and layout, you could build a site within 1 hour.

Hi Propole

Yes i built it myself, just need to know photoshop and a basic html application, i use dreamweaver, can't use flash or anything but then again not fussed as i like simple plain websites with not to much moving on them

£100 a page is a ripp off unless you need some complicated functions, if you need a slick little setup with only a few pages don't pay more than £150 - £200 tops!

i built mysite in about 6 hours, it ain't the best there is out there but is alright for free ennit?

[P®oPole™]

6 Hours not bad my logo took longer than that
 
I do like your Steve, very very profesional the intro is the don. I wouldnt have a clue.

Does that dream weaver software help (do it all for you) what exactly is it?

ProPole

[steveaqua]

where I know Photoshop thats the biggest advantage, create it all there first then chopit up and bang it dreamweaver. i'm a real novice at dreamweaver but get by. you can't create images in dreamweaver just put it all together in that.
