ANYTHING!!<br /></div><div>You can sort by any field, print any or all records, copy and past to another page... ANYTHING!</div><div></div><br /><div>Where to use this? You can use this as a link from your website (probably on every page!), in emails (like in the signature block), or we can even create a separate web address (URL) that you can include on your letterhead or business card.</div><div></div><br /><div>The registration screen includes a greeting and instructions from you. As soon as someone fills in the form they receive a thank you greeting from YOU. You also can receive a notice by email after every registration or on a daily/weekly basis.

It even sends tham a Thank Your note for registering!<br /><br />Click the <span style="color:#009900;"><em>RESERVATIONS </em></span><span style="color:#000000;">icon at the top right of our front page and take a look. Please enter a pretend reservation and we'll send you a copy of what the spreadsheet looks like.

Maybe your franchise offers the reservations system. Your internet provider may already offer secure, profitable WiFi (wireless internet for your campers).<br /><br />Pick and choose and we'll either build it for you or provide through your existing web service.<br /><br />Happy Friday, and enjoy the day!<br /><br />Jeff Kurtz<br />570-401-4843<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7546155912920553774-3514818579188892914?l=campsitewebsites.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jeff Kurtzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16143630042893510727noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7546155912920553774.post-39390743450845971152008-05-29T08:58:00.001-07:002008-05-29T09:20:54.074-07:00So why do campers look to your website?<br /><ul><li>Why is your place desireable?</li><li>Activities, services, features/benefits</li><li>Photo Albums</li><li>Location - maps - directions</li><li>Accomodations: RV hookups, tent sites, cabins, rentals</li><li>Internet access, game room, laundry...</li><li>Events: Weekly, special events, events nearby</li><li>Rates</li></ul><p>OK, so it's going to be pretty much the same for every campground... give or take having gambling and slots... ( go figure)</p><p>As far as I can tell, this can all be covered in a simple one page website, but there's something to be said for your webistes with LOTS of copy and interesting things to look at. Readers Digest Clearing House has proven that "long copy sells". You don't want shortcuts to create the image that you cut corners everywhere.</p><p>Make a list of things you want to tell folks that will make a difference... do some searches on the internet to see what websites you enjoy and would be good examples of how you would be comfortable appearing. Maybe even tear out pages from camping magazines that have images you like. Then we'll start cutting and pasting to create a site for you!~</p><p>More as time permits, </p><p>Jeff</p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7546155912920553774-3939074345084597115?l=campsitewebsites.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jeff Kurtzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16143630042893510727noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7546155912920553774.post-85842095783675109922008-05-29T08:35:00.000-07:002008-05-29T08:52:52.211-07:00We've created this siteto help independent campsite owners learn more about simple websites that have most of the features of the big guys, at a fraction of the cost and/or effort.<br /><br />Most of the techniques we will present can be done by anyone with access to the internet, with the simplest tools we can find for you.<br /><br />Yes, we'll do a website for you, or give you a hand with the sections you have dificulty with. We'd like to make a living, just like everyone else. However, our premise is: If you can do it yourself there's no reason to charge you for that! ( you may also enjoy our other website <a href="http://www.sowhoneedsawebguyanyway.com/">www.sowhoneedsawebguyanyway.com</a> ) <br /><br />Don't hesitate to call with questions, or shoot us an email if we can give you a hand.<br /><br />and,<br />Enjoy the day!<br /><br />Jeff Kurtz<br />President - Reykur Associates Inc<br />570-401-4843<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7546155912920553774-8584209578367510992?l=campsitewebsites.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jeff Kurtzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16143630042893510727noreply@blogger.com0
