Business of Software

The *business* of software

Good morning all,

I hope it's okay to post this here, but assumed it would be of interest to many of the forum's participants?

When it comes to our own websites, we tend to see them far more than anyone else. We get used to seeing them not as a visitor might see them, but as we hope they are seen. These two versions of reality are often quite distinct from one another.

Sharon Housley - http://www.notepage.com - and Dave Collins - http://www.sharewarepromotions.com - have been running a live website critique for many years, both at the Software Industry Conference and European Software Conference. The session has always been extremely popular, as Dave and Sharon offer their many years of experience to dissect, criticise and sometimes rip apart a website's appearance and setup.

Subjects covered include the initial impression created by a website, structure, navigation, communication, SEO setup and more.

On the 29th of April at 5:00 PM UK time (12:00 Eastern, 11:00 Central), Dave and Sharon are running a 40 minute live Website Critique Webinar - where participants can choose to sit passively and enjoy the show, or if they're brave enough, can offer their own website for dissection.

Please note that availability may be limited, and we will only have time to critique a limited number of websites.

I hope you can join us on the 29th.

I'm overwhelmed by the response :-)

Is no-one interested in improving how their website performs? People who've attended these sessions at the conferences have found them to be very useful indeed.

I've signed up. I'm curious to see if they'll look at my site.

I've signed up. We have scheduled a web site overhaul for www.software-acumen.com but if you have time it will be interesting to see whether we have missed something - I don't want to bias your critique by giving you our thoughts on this...

Thanks for organising this Dave and Sharon. I certainly found it worthwhile - both looking at our own site's deficiencies but also at others...

Will aim to take part again when you do it next time.

Thanks Mark,

I'm just dealing with the follow-ups this morning - lots of very good comments and feedback to deal with!

I'm glad you found it useful. We're already thinking about a second website critique webinar - probably around the end of June. I'll announce it here when we do so.

I hope to 'see' you there.

I echo Dave's comments, I'm glad you found the Webinar useful. The popularity and response has been great!
