Hi everyone, I just wondered if anyone would consider sharing any photos or reviews on there trips around Croatia on my site, or if you have or know of a business or service related to Croatia you can share this also. It would help me to make new friends on this forum and get to know you all a little better. your support would really help and i would be grateful for any contribution. you can submit here www.croatiavillasonline.com/Croatia-directory.htmlThank you If you want to get to know us better then go read all the zillions of posts on this site. There's a wealth of material, some nutty stuff, maybe a bunch of hot air, but also some gems of information. One thing I would suggest about your site is adding an address, a contact number and company info. You have a flashy video, nice pictures and great text but then it all falls apart with no contact details. Sure, you have a fill-in program (and we'll get back to you ASAP), but if you want people to put their trust in you, you have to put that info on your site (I would never trust a site with no contact details). Obviously if you’re selling villas you are registered right?

Sorry "Villas", I've never met crojoe but I do think he has good advice for you. Any small/medium sized organisation which has a web presence where it is impossible to find out who and where they are immediately rings alarm bells for me.
Put your own name, business address and telephone number right there on the front page or on your contacts page. People will not deal with you if they think you are hiding something. Also, as madgolfer said, if you are operating legally, then say so by showing your certification details. It will help your credibility.
If you want people to send you money for your service then you really need to put them at their ease about yourself, be visible, be open.

It just always raises a red flag in my mind when a really nice looking site with good content, video and stuff has no address, or if a business, then no business contact address or operating number. What good is having such a great site if you can't directly contact the person? I know I don't like to fill in "contact us" forms without knowing to who and where my details are going. Obviously this isn't a scam, but there sure are plenty out there.

I just wondered if anyone would consider sharing any photos or reviews on there trips around Croatia on my site. full details of my registered company, office address,phones numbers,obi, ect , will be made available on my site and on the about us page. just to be clear before this topic gets out of hand, i have spent many years in Croatia, obtaining the correct paperwork, i take on board your comments and will more than emphasize the total legalities of me and my company on my site, i thank all of you for your comments, if i thought for asking for a few photos i would end up in the dock i surly would not have bothered what sort of forum is this. Good for you! That's what friends are for, for the good times and the bad! Who knows, maybe you'll get more business from the free suggestions given? I post on some other sites that pertain to my business and a few times I have posted my site and had people comment on it. The outcome and changes I made from suggestions did me a world of good. Not only that I gleaned a lot of good info on how to use Google to my advantage (and I didn’t even know these people). With your company details shown you're site will look 110%.

If you get offended David. May I call you David? Then maybe you are not going to last in business here, be it Croatia or elsewhere. You asked for our help. That is what we are giving you.
I suggest a page/link along the left hand side of your web page that says about me or about us. Yes, you need to add the contact information that was stated above. In addition I recommend you put a picture of yourself. Who cares what you look like as long as you are presentable. You will do better being who you are. Tell them something about yourself, your background, the reason why we should contact you.
Come on, all the people on this site with their combined knowledge and experience could be tremendous asset to you and your future.
Good God. I'm on a roll today. Nap!!
