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.

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:

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!

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!
