How Many Have Websites

I have a website. I had a lot of fun creating it too! I can see how many hits I get each day and today 20 people have looked on my site. I am having trouble getting spots filled and I havent had any emails or calls for a while. So it makes me wonder what I am doing wrong.
Either way I think having a website is professional and can be another way to reach potential clients. I have my website printed on my buisness cards too.
I hope things start turning around for me soon..either way I dont think my website can hurt me.

I have a website. I would say about 1 out of every 10 inquiries I get comes from my website. I have my website listed on my business cards, my flyers, my online advertisements, etc. Since my hit counter keeps going up but my calls don't seem to be, I am wondering if there is something on my site that is turning parents off. I don't have my rates listed so it's not that:confused:
Since most of my calls come from craigslist and my state's website, I can't say for sure that my site is generating more business for me but since it's so cheap to maintain, I'd rather have one than not.

I just saw the post after I asked. There are some really great sights out there.
Most of my calls come from our local child care council referral agency. But I did invest in a sign for my yard that has gotten alot of attention. Sadly most calls are for babies 2 and under. I have these spots filled. One with my daughter.
I've been thinking about a car magnet too?! (On my husbands car tho since mine never leaves the driveway)Last edited by Michael; 10-23-2010, 10:27 PM.

I have a website. The only time I see visitors is if I've posted it in a forum or on an ad. I don't think it's generated any more business for me. I did enjoy setting it up though.
It's sad, I've put sections for members only where I can post pics of the kids so only the parents have access to them and they haven't been viewed once.

I had a parent once asked me (months after I stopped updating it) if we had a website site. I told them yes but I was deleting because it was a waste of time etc..So I went home and thought I would check it. I had a whopping 18 views!
I deleted the site right then and there and I never worked on it again.

I have a website but I don't show up in search engines. I advertise it when I apply for jobs/business cards, etc.
ALL my parents have given me major compliments on it. Not to mention even if I'm not offering (or too far) from certain parents, they always say "your website is fantastic". I don't think it's something a lot of providers think about in my area. They all seem super impressed. I spent quite a lot of time on it but it was easy.
I used www.webs.com
