Re: I need some ideas of what to put on my site             Go to Top

mmm. Pancakes. Makes me want to buy some insurance!

Looks ok. Hard to read home page where you have shading/ I would go for box instead. Also, I would highlight the three lines starting with "What's more." Perhaps bold key words on each line.

What software did you use?

The chopped off heads on the left are giving me the willies!

From an SEO perspective:
  1. The title tag should have your keywords in it. Right now you have the word "home" there.
  2. There is very little text on the page. Search engines can't read pictures. The first piece of text appears to be: "Indiana Medicare Plans © All rights Reserved"

Looks good.

The font on your contact us page near the bottom is nice and dark and easy to read. The rest of the site has a font that is too light.

Let me know if you generate any leads in Southern Indiana. No sense burning up all your gas!

I did not put it together. I just supplied the text. I do not know squat about web page design or seo. TheNEwGUy helped me out with it.
Thanks for the feedback, I figured the feedback would be worse than that.

NEWBY,
You can have all the southern IN leads if you send me all your northern ones. I doubt I get too many leads from this site though. I just wanted a web presence.

They're leeches for bloodletting. Don't you know nothing about insurance benefits?

Sorry, Rick. We do not have leeches here in Pennsylvania! BTW, what insurance company covers bloodletting by leeches?

Pretty much any of the mini-meds. They cover virtually nothing else.

Re: I need some ideas of what to put on my site             Go to Top

In a previous life as a marketing manager, I learned that you sometimes have to allow a customer to communicate with you through the channel they originally chose. If people find you on the internet, it could be that they were trying to get Superpages for a phone number or something and just having a number is fine. But, you really need at least a contact us form. Maybe they were online b/c they have call reluctance and reaching out online is less intimidating.

Just a thought. If I missed the form, sorry.

Let me give you some real advice. You wanted to know what to put on your site.

Put my picture (in a speedo) and phone number on the site. It won't help you but what the hell? I'll even throw in a membership in a very exclusive association - Chumps chumps.

No website is complete without this:



And maybe a links page with some resources for seniors. Links to local Senior Centers, libraries, maybe some local services like Massage Therapists, Web MD or another medical site, Cracker Barrel.

And of course, Ernest Borgnine's fountain of youth
