Please note that several changes and additions will be added as time permits. (Been extremely busy)

Many sincere Thanks go out to Tony Valentine, and Ryan Valentine for their expertise.

Good Fortune to everyone;

Just looks like a narrow mini house flyer to me, it lacks substance , creativity, the WOW FACTOR, not inviting , & is deprived of important major price and product specials and gimmicks........you should take KleenKuip as an example of EXPERTISE as well as MagicWandCo......

Just my marketing opinion Ed.......don't be insulted.......you're the one who started to promote this thing.......................sorry this gets a c-

Jack, you are probably right with most of your comments, but everything is relative. Compared to Ed's earlier site I find this one much improved. That is not to say it is like Ted's site which I consider the Gold standard in websites to which all others fall short. I still consider it the best in the industry. If you are comparing to that, then I must agree.

I thank you Gentlemen for all your comments. And,

I do not feel in the least, insulted in anyway. The reason is that the "Web Page design business" is really in its early growth stages. And, whenever one has to hand over a project like this to someone else, you lose a certain amount of control as we all realize.

And, ofcourse, my good kind hearted friend, The Carpetologist, has always been "The Wizard" of inventive advertising for sure. Therefore it is natural that he always pulls a rabbit out of the hat in this regards. He has always done a wonderful job.

However, on the other hand, I find it just a little different when it comes to web pages of a manufacturer and/or a distributor sales outlet. Close, but there's still a fine line and big difference.

Anyways, we will be making improvements as time permits. In the meantime, I hope that all interested will find it somewhat convient.

Good Fortune to all;

Ed Valentine

Much improved. The organization makes more sense. The product pages are more focused, such that they don't scroll down so far anymore trying to describe related products. Long scrolling pages have been a pet peeve of mine for awhile.

Web design is frustrating. My page is still very weak, more because I haven't added the content I want. It's way easier to critique a page site than it is to make one, I find.

Marketing a business is much like real estate..........DON'T SHOWCASE YOUR HOUSE IF IT ISN'T FINISHED YET..........people don't usually return if the first experience is less that inviting................
