Aug 29th 2009

Well selected images and Stock Photos placed on each of your web pages enhances the overall look to your web site.  Images can cost as little as $1 US for web site purposes from fotolia's web site.

We often use istock for images but recently came across fotolia which has a fresh range of imagery to search through.

You can create an account within 1 minute and put $20 US on your card to buy 20 credits which will get you 20 very good photos suitable for most web site applications.

Check out the fotolia web site here



Click to Call Technology. Convert More Visitors to Sales

Aug 11th 2009

Another way to increase conversion rates of web site visitors to calling customers is to offer a FREE CALL button on your web site

It works like this

1. Your visitor clicks your free call button
2. A Window pops up and asks for visitors phone number
3. They enter their number and click call me
4. The visitors phone starts ringing and they pick the phone
5. Your phone starts ringing and you pick it up and talk with your new customer
6. You get the sale or appointment
Note: You can customise at what times you will acept calls and to which phones you want calls directed to at times of the day.

How do you pay
You prepay $10, $50 etc into your account and top up when this is used.
Call rates can be found on the website here

You can sign up to a free trial which gives you $10 credit

GTP will need to embed the code for you on your web site in the appropriate spot. You may be able to drop the code in via an inews page to test it.  Cost for GTP to embed in the right spot is approximately $99 as it takes on average 45 mins.


Internet Explorer Crashing when using GTP iCommerce system

Aug 7th 2009

Does the below happen to you? Microsoft recently released Internet Explorer 8 and while it’s worth updating for the raft of usability and security improvements it has unfortunately caused an issue with the GTP image and file uploading system.

The below image is an example of what happens when you try and upload.



While we are working on a fix for this issue, we recommend using an alternative web browser called Firefox. Firefox is a great alternative to Internet Explorer and will install and import all your favourites and options from Internet Explorer. The interface is also very similar.

Some clients have also reported to us that a big white bar is covering some of the screen while using the editor in IE8, this is a related issue and it does not appear in Firefox or other versions of Internet Explorer.

You can download it visiting  http://www.getfirefox.com. Who knows, you might end up keeping it!
