New Theme, Same Great Stuff

by John Kolbert | Posted in: Site News

I’ve just activated the new theme for my website. It’s a nice HTML template that I’ve converted to a WordPress theme. You’ll notice there is a much larger emphasis on services I offer and my portfolio. Please leave any feedback you have regarding the layout, broken links, etc.

Here’s a few highlights of the changes I’ve made.

Display My Services

The largest change is that the homepage now displays services I offer prominently and de-emphasizes the blog somewhat. This change is to allow me to focus more on client work and to have potential clients recognize the services I offer.

Portfolio

I’ve finally added a decent portfolio. Right now the portfolio is displaying ten recent projects I’ve worked on, minus the non-disclosures (obviously).

Dedicated Donation Page

I’ve also added a dedicated donation page to allow people who have enjoyed my plugins and/or services to donate anytime they like. The form processing is handled through PayPal.

Updated Plugin Pages

I’ve also updated the plugin pages for plugins I’ve released. They use the same graphic as the donation page with a different text overlay.

    Since you're certainly using web analytics, you should see results (more requests for quotes) immediately. Just guessing, but if you put the "Request a quote" in bold, this might increase the RFQs even more.
