URBaCS Launches New Website for New Focus HR

We, @URBaCS, just launched NewFocusHR.com for Kristen Shingleton. Kristen and I met while serving together on the Big Ten Career Expo committee. When she left her company to start her own venture she approached me about building a website for her. I was honored because I respected Kristen and truly valued her opinion and work ethic on the committee.

Although the design/development took longer than I’d hoped (my fault entirely – sidetracked on other projects) I’m thrilled with our finished product. Her site is clean, bright and effectively communicates what she does. She’s an HR professional that provides consulting, training and speaking services to businesses in Indianapolis and the surrounding areas.

What do you think? I’d love to hear your feedback.

Grade Your Website in 30 seconds

WebsiteGrader and Woorank are awesome tools that can help you understand how your website stacks up against others. I use them both to show clients how they can optimize the marketing effectiveness of their websites.

Simply input your web address and let the two systems generate a grade that tells you how you rank on a scale of 1 – 100. You’ll also get a list of recommendations to make your site better. Some are technical and some are not. Even if you know nothing about HTML, DNS or SEO this report will help you understand what a good web development company can do to increase your online effectiveness.

I’ve added the WebsiteGrader badge for JaysonManship.com to the right sidebar. It started at 68. My goal is to get it over 80 by the end of February.

Posterous = Email…on Steroids

posterous_logo1Posterous.com lets you create a website simply by sending an email. Type and send to post@posterous.com and you will get an automated response message with a link to your new automatically created website. The website will include all information that you provided in your email (text, pictures, movies, music, documents, etc). You can then share the URL with friends and family or use it to solicit feedback from a work or school colleague.

Point blank there is no simpler way to post your files online. You don’t need to know HTML or understand how to get around a Content Management System (CMS). You don’t need to download any software or subscribe to any monthly payment plans. In fact, you don’t even to need to register for an account.

You can create a website by simply sending an email.

That said, you won’t fully appreciate the coolness of Posterous until you create an account and register your email address. You’ll then be able to aggregate your emails together in one website that you can brand. You can also attach your social media sites to your Posterous account to automatically post to Twitter, Facebook and YouTube every time you add relevant content to Posterous via email.

Check it out. Super cool. And super simple.
