MakeoverMachine.com – Enhance The Design Of Your Site

September 2, 2010

I know no webmaster that is 100 % satisfied with the current design of his site. They can have the most striking site on the face of the Web, and they are unhappy.

Just like a musician is always unhappy with any album he has released, and a painter is dissatisfied with his latest work. That happens because they all can see something that is not being translated into practice. In all three examples, the individuals know that they can do better. But the problem is how to channel that knowledge into something real.

Well, The Makeover Machine is a new application that might let webmasters move one step closer to having better design. You see, here they will be able to submit their sites and receive revamped designs in exchange. These will highlight the aspects that could be enhanced in order to make visitors actually become interested enough as to explore the sites on their own.

The services provided by The Makeover Machine are inexpensive. Yes, that’s right. You can have suggestions for how to improve your site for free. Provided you site is selected from the many that are submitted, that’s it. But it’s worth a try in any case.

GetDecorating.com – From inspiration to decoration

December 8, 2007

Featuring more than 17,000 photos showing decorating and design ideas for the home, this is like getting the best decoration magazines together in the same place. The site is divided into interior and exterior ideas, so you can browse styles based on what you are really looking for, and if you become a member you can create a showcase that you can later send to somebody else, for instance a contractor, so you can receive quotes on exactly what you want, and not on a vague description.

There is also a ‘Tour a Home’ feature, where you can actually see a whole house, and not just bits and pieces of several. However, you have to become a member to see all of the galleries (fees vary depending on whether you are using the site for business of personal research). The site allows users to upload their photos in order to share them with other users, and since most of the photo-uploaders are contractors or decorating firms, it might happen that while browsing you decide who your contractor will be, so GetDecorating.com can turn out to be a very profitable service. The site has a Spanish version as well.

When revamping, sometimes it can be really hard to figure out not exactly what you want, but how you need to have it done: you never know what the advantages of one material over the other are, and the durability and maintenance… It seems like a headache from beginning to end. The good news is that now, thanks to concretenetwork.

com, you can understand the benefits of this cheap and durable material, plus take a look at what other people have done in their own homes and see if you can get some ideas. You can also check out the directory of local contractors and get a quote, and even use their free Design Tool that will allow you to choose colors, patterns, and textures for a patio, pool deck, garage floor, driveway, or entryway project. Interestingly, the site works for end-consumers, but it also suits the needs of contractors, who can get a free webpage from the site, plus find out about forthcoming industry news and training events.
