We have a question for all you Clayart readers who have experience with
pottery web pages - do they generate sufficient income to justify their
use? We are considering a web page; however, we do not want to embark
on this venture to just show our pots to other potters. We would really
appreciate your appraisal.

Michael,

Thanks for you info. Do you have specific information about income
generation from pottery web pages? We really want to know cost/benefit
information. No problem generating our web page, plenty of providers
quite willing to do so; however, our concern is about return on
investment.

Best regards,

I think you should look at a web site as a brochure. Keep it up to date
and
continue to promote as you do now, but get that web site address into as
many faces as you can. Make the site better and better as time goes on.
Don't count on business being generated from it without effort, you've
got
to let people know over and over again where it is. Put your web address
on your business card especially. On your car bumper. Your hat.
Everywhere
you can.
