I am not a cowboy or anything, but with the National Western
Stock show in town, I just had to wake up this morning and let
out a big:

YEEEEHAAWW!

One of the beauties of living in Colorado is being at the
crossroads of cowboy culture and internet culture.
Seems like half the people in Colorado are left over from the
old west, and the other half have moved in from California.

Well, this one today is for those cowboys and girls out there.

Did you know that visiting a website is a lot like riding a bull?
Think about it.

When you’re riding a bull you’re trying to stay on for 8 seconds.
When you own a website, your website is the bull, and your
visitor is the cowboy.

That cowboy has 7 seconds to decide to stick around.  YOU only
have 7 seconds to keep a visitor on your website.  Or else they
leave.  Simple as that.

Think about it.  You surf the web like you’re riding a bull.

When you visit a website, you might dart left and right, just
like the bullrider would.  You might rear, you might hit that
back button.

You might spin, you might kick, you might jump off.

It’s your job as the website owner to lasso that reader in, to
keep him there.

Well partner, you need to provide interesting content that you
update regularly.  You gotta make sure that you capture some
information from that person, so that you keep reminding them to
come back.  Finally, you best have compelling copy written on the
website.

If you don’t have any of these things, you’re visitors are going
to be bucked right off of your website.  What a bunch of BULL!

Get your website from someone who has you yelling GIDDY UP!
Yup, that’s us.

Happy Computing,

P.S. – Have you been thinking you need a website, but just don’t
know where to start?  Let’s start by talking about it!  Get in
