Nanci: How about making your Events a page on your blog that you update? Then link directly to that page. ???
Yay for getting rid of the dark background!

Alyson, I am in the process of redoing my website (no more dark background with white text, thank you.) Presently on my site, I have a home page which I already decided was one too many clicks, and was going to have my Portfolio Page of my site as my landing page. Also, while I do have specific events at times, I have to go through my web guy to make any changes or additions- and often do that on my blog or FB.
What do you suggest for artists that might be in a similar position?
Thank you., as always.

Thanks for such a helpful info. It is truth and many of us are not giving importance to such tips. I was trying to make much home page interesting and informative.

Cynthia: I’m glad you found this helpful. And I’m glad you appreciate the “straight shooter” approach. I’m not always subtle.

Just as I was embarking on a renovation of my art website your helpful tips about landing pages arrived. It’s not always easy to know what to include and as a newbie creating a website I have heaps to learn. I always enjoy your straight shooter approach so it’s back to the website to incorporate your advice. Many thanks.

Absolutely, Nina. You can make it a separate post or a static page. You’ll just note the precise URL to send people to.

I was in the midst of building a page for a special sale I was beginning when I got your email. Although re-writing the text took a bit of time I really, really like the way it is presented now! Before I felt a bit like I was begging, now I feel like I’m doing people a favor. 🙂 Thanks for the tips Alyson, I look forward to what you have to share each week!
