Hi there,

I have great placement on search engines and some very targeted traffic, especially for the Canadian market.

For example:

On Yahoo: #2 "canada web design companies"

On Google #1 "webmaster Canada"

On MSN #2 "website design canada"



But it's hard to convert into actual sales.

Could that be because:

- no clear pricing structure?
- the design is not good enough?
- no portfolio?
- no specific sales strategy or promotion?

I'm starving and need some work! Any feedback would be appreciated, any designers that would like to partner with me and maybe cooperate are welcome, especially if you can actually convert my traffic into sales...

The site in question is anonsolutions (dot) com

Cheers!

Out of the list you supply of possible causes for your lack of customers I think the 'lack of portfolio' one is the most critical!
Best of luck /Sunaj

EDIT: also, I think your posting is in the wrong subforum by a pretty far margin!

there are two types of portfolios, things that you have done and things that you are capable of doing.

if you do not have a large "have done" portfolio, then focus on what you are capable of doing, and show your designs and maybe offer a discount or extra benefits to get clients to start off...
