Praise for Joan Holman
"Joan Holman's skillset is one in a million and worth every penny!!" (Christina Schulz)
"To not use Joan Holman on any project, whether it be marketing, creation of a web site or developing a book you’ve been meaning to write would be a HUGE mistake. Joan Holman is first class all the way. Saying WOW about what she will do for you would be the understatment of the century. I thought I had a pretty good handle on what I needed to make a great online impression. Little did I know that my vain attempt at putting together a marketing website was futile to say the least. I look at where I started and where I am now and am so grateful that I had the good fortune of bumping into the likes of Joan Holman.
Joan Holman not only created the most fantastic web site for me (www.christinanetworkdiva.com), she took charge of developing it into a very powerful marketing tool. She took time to understand who I really am and what I am really trying to accomplish with my business. She also determined what my specific market is and then created the most perfect impression to help me achieve my business goals. I totally feel like I have the winning edge because of her insight and expertise.
Joan is also a fantastic marketing copywriter and great at naming and branding. When it comes to making words sing and jump off of a page, Joan Holman is the master!! She took a simple idea I had for a tag line and turned it into a sizzlin’ phrase I can use on all of my marketing, including my business cards, letterhead, email and more!! Thank you, Joan, for helping me look great!!”

Why You Need Web Site Development & Internet Consulting with A CyberMarketing Edge
Design alone and computer programming alone do not make an effective Web site for a business. The site design and development should be based upon savvy cybermarketing expertise. This is a specialized field of marketing, which is unique and continually evolving. Remember that your Web site is a powerful marketing tool, and that there are different rules for creating marketing materials on the Web that in traditional print media.
There are design limitations on the Internet (including limitations on colors, sizes of graphics for download, etc.), and many elaborately-designed web sites are not designed to work with lower level browsers.
Many Web sites do not give visitors the information they are looking for, or make it hard to find the information visitors are looking for. Or the Web sites use special programming that requires a special plug-in, or that requires the newest version of a browser, thus making it impossible for some visitors to access and/or use the information on the site.
You need to design to the lowest common denominator of those visiting your Web site, remembering that visitors come from different kinds of computers and different versions of browsers. Also, be sure to break up your text into small sections and have lots of subtitles to make your page easy to read on the computer screen.
Other Web Site Development Considerations include:
The importance of titling the home page and other pages correctly in order to maximize the opportunity to be listed in search engines
The use of keywords in your page content to attract traffic to your site through the search engines
Including your web site address on your web pages in case people print out those pages and keep them for future reference
Being careful about reverse type since it has been determined in studies that reverse type is very hard for the eye to read. And, of course, if someone wants to print your web page and it has reverse type, it may not print at all. Once you get your web site up, you need to properly promote your web site, not only on the Internet, but to the extensive media contacts that focus on Internet news. You also need to try to get other sites to link to you. So, be sure to have in your Web site development budget some marketing dollars to promote your Web site. So many people develop a Web site and think that the traffic and business will just automatically come. This is not true. It takes marketing, both online and offline, to get traffic to your Web site.
