Please give us a short summary of your website?
We're a lighting showroom that has just began offering our great prices and services online.
What inspired you to launch your own website?
It seems more and more people are beginning ro do their shopping online. We had already begun doing much of our sales and contact over email so this seemed like a logical step.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
From 1994 until about two months ago we had a very simple single page.
How did you decide on a name for your website?
Village Lighting has been a well known showroom in WA for years. We're just bringing our reputation with us.
What makes your website different from other, similar offerings?
We plan on focusing on service. We offer design help and free layouts. We still bring the family owned values to the table as we go online, and that's becoming harder and harder to find in the online world.
What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)
We hope to make this an integral part of Village Lighting.
If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
We would have a full team of web designers on staff.
If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?
I really hope that becomes a problem. Yes' we would find a way to keep up.
What method has been most successful for promoting your website?
We're just beginning the promotion.
How long have you run the site already, and how long will you continue to keep it up if you don't enjoy big gains in traffic, income or popularity?
We've had the new ecommerce site up and running for about 2 months.
