Web Facelift - www.DecaturGAHomesForSale.Com - A New Look - Redesigned Web.

I wanted to ask you opinion of a face lift I have just made to an old site I have www.DecaturGahomesforsale.com. I have not updated in about 5 years! Over the years, it was not so compatible with the new browsers, so a redo was in order, I just did not want to take the time to do it.

A few days ago I purchased a Dynamic Web Template DWT for about $79 and reconfigured the entire site. I chose this template because it floats and is more compatible with most web browsers even Mozilla! I would love to hear any feedback you ma have. I was very careful to optimize every page for SEO, and streamline graphics and load times. On interior pages I have placed embedded inline frames for property searches. I would love to have you look at the site, and offer any feedback you may have. This was a very different template than I have been used to working with in the past, but I personally like it. This site took a day an a half to create. It replaces the site below:

It's very nice Jim. I've still a front page girl....a little afraid to go the DWT route...no clue on that LOL. But it's clean and very easy to read.

Jim, Just a question about your template: After you buy it can you use it more than once?

Site looks good.

Maple Valley WA Real Estate Broker/Owner Colleen Fischesser Thanks Coleen! I appreciate your comments. That is what I wanted a very clean and open web page.

Bill Roberts - "Baby Boomer" Retirement Planning Yes you can there is a license agreement, but if you read it it is very open. Here is where I purchased the site for $75:

Nice clean look! Good Job!

Rey "Steak Dinner" Gallegos: Loan Officer Las Vegas, NV Thanks that is just a first step. The next step is to drive and increase traffic, and then closings!

Jim - Looks pretty good to me. Easy to read and not too much clutter.

Bill Gassett Metrowest Massachusetts Thanks Bill I've been looking for a long time for the right template, this was it. I love the structure and global edits. Now all I have to do is get Decatur GA Homes for Sale on top of the search engines!

Hi Jim, I like your new site. It's very clean and easy to read and the layout looks very professional. Good job!

Linda Scanlan Your Fort Worth Realtor Thanks! I've already started on another site.

Good Job! On a side note I grew up in Clarkston so this kinda took me back think I actually recognized some of those homes, lol.

Linda Futral Thanks! We've sold a few homes in that area over the years, and quite a few buyers. Decatur is really such a great place!

It has changed a lot since I grew up in the area that is for sure. I moved from there 25 years ago and mom and dad finally bailed about 17 years ago. Just wasn't a safe neighborhood anymore. Decatur though has that old charm like Newnan and Hogansville do. I miss the little greek resturant on the square that was a fav.

Thanks for adding me as an associate.

Linda Futral You're welcome! I guess change is the spice of life. I go back to New York and it is completely different in the old neighborhood. Good thing they cannot take our memories away!

The site looks good. It has the look of a blog, but I do no see that it is a blog.

2 suggestions to consider.. 1. add a blog. If you host your own site, Wordpress is easy to use. 2. Find a way to get the listings into your site without iframes if possible. Spiders do not see that as part of YOUR page, but if you can use a PHP include to import the info, it would.

Otherwise, great job! Hope you get tons of business from it!
