Brads Blog

The next website review I’llbe doing is that of www.ledgerservices.co.uk. For this particular website, I will first review to design and layout, then I will discuss the content.

Layout and Design - First impressions go a long way with me. This site impressed me. With the flash animation in the header, the sleek design of the main page I knew right away that this site was not just thrown together on a whim.

I was put to a strong challenge by reviewing this site. This site offers many different accounting/bookkeeping software packages and services, and I have no experience in this field. It took me a while to read and learn about the focus of this site.

Content - There is a lot of information packed into this website. The amount of different software packages they offer seems to be quite a bit. Here are some of the different areas of the site I explored.

The Sage Software overview page decribes the various Sage Software options available and include Sage Line 50, ACT and Sage Personnel to name a few.

I went on to check out the Bookkeeping tab and learned that Ledger servies not only provides accounting software, but they also have a staff that provides book keeping services.

I could probably on on for hours describing all the different services and software packages they provide, but I will just recommend checking the site out for yourself. If you are in the accounting industry, this is a site you should surely visit.

Today I will do a review of a Sales Forum called www.asalesforum.com. I have done two part reviews recently, where I review the layout and design first, then I discuss the content of the site. I have decided that I will review this site differently, and review the site as a whole.

Upon first entering the website, I was impressed with how well put together it was. My eyes were immediately drawn to the header, where there is some flash animation taking place.

The main page is set up in a easy to read format that is not cluttered with ads or other irrelevent content.

There seems to be four main pages to navigate to from the main page.

The Forum - This is the main focus of the site. The forums are broken up into four categories, including General, Sales, Marketing, Small Business and Other Sales Stuff. All of these are packed full of good information. Anyne can view the posts, but you are requred to register before posting.

Sales Tips - The webmaster takes some of the better articles that are posted by members in the forums and posts them in the sales tips area.

Sales Articles - In this section, you have the option do view arious articles relating to Sales articles, Marketing Articles and Business Articles. You can also submit your own article.

UK Business News - Here you will find the latest business news from BBC and ITN.

If you have not noticed, this site is going to be the Brad’s Reviews site. I will no longer be doing rants, what not here. If you like to read my blog without the reviews, I am going to be hanging out at my old blogger blog for this(until I figure out what I’m going to do next).
