My first thought is that you shouldn't advertise for techs on your public page any more than a restaurant should put "chef wanted" on theirs. I'm not in a position to critique, but ATI conducts a media class that is mind-blowing. Whether you do your own site or farm it out, you need to know what's effective.

Nice sites everyone!

 

Our website gets a lot of traffic, due to engagement via blog, fb, and events.

 

www.trackspecauto.com

 

We feel that the most effective are simple, yet new and modern looking. Why? If its busy on the first initial page, people get overwhelmed and often skim info shown. If you start with a simple home page, they can decide via your menu what they need to see. Which, in my opinion, is more comforting than being shown everything all at once on the first visit.

 

Some people go to your site just so find contact info or location. Some go to see what you're all about, read about the employees, etc. Each person has a different mindset going into it, so it is my opinion that its better to let them choose what to see first.

Gutsy first impression. Not gonna attract a lot of soccer moms. Some people might move on the the next Google search listing in hopes of finding a phone number. Might scare me off if I want my 2005 Honda accord serviced. But cool visual layout.

 

Thanks for the tips! We do have a specific target market, which is very abundant in the San Francisco Bay Area. Majority of our customers are car enthusiasts, not so much soccer moms. They are people that love to take their cars to driving events, such as autocrosses and trackdays, or just car meets and drives. We wouldnt turn down a 2005 Honda accord or soccer moms, but it isnt the type of car or clientele we are going after either.

 

Regarding the phone number, it is in the footer and in "The Shop" page. We deliberately made it so that the contact form is easier to find first because we are still a young shop and very busy. We find that we are more efficient with our time and more accurate with our quotes if we can get requests via email/contact form. We know some people prefer to talk to a human, so our phone number is also on yelp, facebook, instagram, and google.

 

 

I agree. The font is also a little to small and hard to read for us old folks.

 

Thanks for the feedback! That is something to think about.

Its the free site provided by iatn so I don't stress too much about how much income it generates. Honestly, after running an internet company for 10 years and spending $10,000+ and 100 hours a month on my old site I didn't want to have a website at all for my brick and mortar business but I don't like telling people "I don't have a website". Besides, google ad words have to point to something.

 

Repairpal was used for a little bit, and I have a ton of reviews on there, but I disagree with their business model so I stopped linking to it.

Hi all. We just launched a new website 2 weeks ago, would like to hear your feedback please:

 

www.midwestperformancecars.com

 

Also, we are very active on Google+ and it has a big impact on our new customer acquisition. Shoot me a message or reply to this post if you would like to find out how we use Google+ in our marketing plan. It's free, not selling anything.
