Buy a .com and forward the address

The first thing you need to do is to buy a dot.com and forward it to the address of your site on myspace.com . You need something that people can remember. Also, to much red. Hurts the eyes.
 
Re: Buy a .com and forward the address

Thanks...I am working on the dot com thing...radio deos not pay very well..

Or you could buy a dot-FM (.FM).

There's a banner link near the top of the Radio
News file linked in my sig.

I just checked...

"Congratulations DAVEKELLY.FM is available... "

73s from 954

Dave, You posted this on at least 7 other cities' boards. What did you really hope to achieve with this? Quit spamming.

PS- Stupid forced topic, fake laughter, cheesy production, annoying self-promotion...you are perfect for 99X. I'd send Leslie a tape immediately.

Start with using correct grammar. "What can I do different-LY?"

As both a radio professional and a web designer I'll offer you this:
- re: the dot.com or dot.fm, I agree with the poster who suggested a better domain name. And they ain't expensive. You can own your own domain name for about $15/year, so cost isn't an excuse.
- The red on black is awful. #1: if you have a black background, you need LIGHT html, such as white. Red is also a psychological sign of danger or warning. Your site looks dark and ominous. The red on black is exceptionally difficult to read. As a web designer I always have to ask: "Didn't the CLIENT look at this and try to read it?" Dave, did you not find it hard to read?
- Because your site is almost nothing but html, and way too much of it, it looks cluttered and boring. Much like http://drudgereport.com/. A great site filled with tons of info, but so utterly cluttered and boring to the eye no one wants to take the time to read thru it. You're in a creative profession. Your website should be creative and attractive! One other aside... because it's all html and ALL of html is underlined (why is that?), it all looks like it should hyperlink to something else, and none of it does. Very frustrating.
- WAY too many links at the top. Look, any visitor to your site is going to give you, MAYBE, 2-3 minutes of their time. They're not going to pore thru all that clutter and info.
- What are you selling? Your voice? Your show? Your services? Then cut thru all the clutter and tell the visitor that! I have no idea what you're trying to sell me on your site.

Let me self-promote now. For whatever it's worth, here are radio related sites we've created for other pros:
- www.reevesvoice.com
- www.creativesoundconcepts.com
- www.davidpierce.com
- www.voicebyscott.com
We did the former sites for Wendy Templeton and Steve Mitchell also, as well as the former J93.3 website, but they've all since moved on from the original sites we created some years ago.
If you want help creating your site, let me know and I'll e-mail you to talk about it.
Good luck, and please know that the above comments, while perhaps a bit harsh, are meant to help you come up with a better and more effective website.
 
They blocked you from the Canada board, So, I'll say this, you sound too much like Rick Emmerson, without the attack on the callers, but still too much like Rick, and not enough like you.
Treating the caller like your friend will BEST seperate you from Rick.
Next time, pick one market at a time to ask, and spamming may go undected.
The Canada board covers all of Canada, so lurkers there may have interest.
If you don't want input from them, why did you post there?<P ID="signature">______________
"If you never say NO, How much is your YES worth?"
</P>
 
And let me tack on to 'Blobster' here. He knows what he's talking about with regards to web design and does a GREAT job.

Make sure you check out other shows on the web and hone your skill. You'll find your 'voice', but you have to cater to the audience you're desiring.
