The sun has been shining so bright these past few weeks that you do not realize how great it feels until it is gone.  It has been overcast for a couple days now and I really want the sun to come back out!  The weather forecast says that the next couple  of days are supposed to be very hot and sunny, let’s hope they are right.

Our latest contest has come to an end.  Our favicon giveaway has been a great success, with several people entering our contest, it is great to know some people are still thinking about their website in the busy Summer months.  We have randomly chosen the winners and they are:  Bumboosa and Fowler Lawns (website coming soon).  Congratulations on your new favicon win!

Keep your eyes out for our next contest which we will do via enewsletter.  If you do not get our enewsletter, you can sign up right now by entering your email address in the sign up box at the top of this web page.

Many business’s have the impression that because Summer is here, that their website does not need any attention.  This is untrue.  Even though many of the business’s on Cape Cod are at their busiest right now, you should not be leaving your website behind.  This is the time of year when most clients are looking at your website, especially if you own a hotel, motel,  restaurant or any seasonal business on Cape Cod.  Traffic for most Cape Cod businesses spikes in the Summer and this is because people want to know what is going on around town, especially when they are on vacation and looking for something to do with the family.

Be sure to keep your website up to date, even in the busy times of the Summer.  Having up to date events, activities, company news and photos on your website will get you more customers.  Having an up to date website will also let customers know that you are still alive an kicking.  If you have not posted to your blog in more than 1 year and you have outdated news on your website, people may think your not in business anymore.

Be sure to take advantage of your photo galleries and your blogs, especially during the Summer season.  Add photos of your business,  property,  staff and more as well as what is happening in your neighborhood and around town.  Keep your customers wanting to come back to your website for more, the more they visit your website, the more likely they are to remember you and use your services.

Yesterday we were very excited to see the FedEx driver pull up to our house as we new that the hard copy of our new business card would be arriving.  The business card proof looks even better than we had expected and we are very excited to get them out to all of our business colleagues, potential clients, friends and family.

We have been having our business cards printed from an online company called Printing for Less.  They have been delivering a high quality product and great customer service to our business for more than 2 years now.  We would highly recommend Printing for Less to any business or individual looking to have business materials printed regularly.

With the weather being so beautiful lately, it would seem like a great idea to get a Spring party planned.  The first day of Spring is March 20th.  You can rent all of your party gear right in Orleans at Cape Rental World.  They have all the supplies one would need for a great party.  They have tents, grills, chairs, tables, popcorn machines, hot dog machines, chafing dishes, silverware and so much more.  You can even print out their party supply list right now.

Thinking about getting a landscaper to do all of your mowing, seeding and trimming, look no further than Whitten Landscaping or Ethan Poulin Landscaping.  Both located on Cape Cod in convenient locations, they can get your yard ready for the Spring and Summer.

Here at COLEwebdev our clients come first and that is why we promote them as much as possible.  Our clients are located all over the country and most of them are right here on the Cape.  If you own a business on Cape Cod or anywhere in the World we would like to work with you to build a great looking and great working website.

Over the past month we have launched 3 brand new websites and we have more to come!  This Winter has been a cold and miserable one, but we have been busy at work getting some very nice new websites together for everyone to enjoy.

Some of our latest launches include:

Briggs Home Builders

Atlantic Well Drilling

Messina

Mass Data Law

We are counting down the days until Spring and we are at 16!  Only 16 more days and I can start thinking about warm sunny days with new fresh flowers and the smell of the ocean.  It will be nice to get some decent weather to go outside and enjoy with the family.  The snow keeps falling, but then it just melts…..
