Thanks yet again!
With our old websites, I aimed to create a balance between information and sales, and structured the sites so that each had a clear information section, and a separate, but linked products section. I believe it worked, and am pleasantly surprised that some our our old heritage pages still get found on Google, despite not being mobile friendly, and lacking quite a few features which Google algorithms now reward.
We also took some advice when revamping our new, main site, that people wanting to buy wanted to get to the sales pages in as few clicks as possible, and did not want, or have the patience to wade through, or past, information pages. This apears to be valid, and to apply strongly to people using their mobile phones. I think much of this is rather sad, but it seems essential to cater for their needs.
Meanwhile, I still believe that infomation, advice, and opinion is well worth trying to provide, but our site design does not make this easy to provide. In the days of simpler website design, I would have banged out the page as soon as I had finished drafting it, hoping someone would proof-read it for me, and adding links and refinements as I went along.
I have noticed that most new members on TSF start off by asking for advice. They generally get lots of it, but don't often get a comprehensive guide. I have found myself wanting to point them to an existing page on any of our sites, rather than compose a new, custom answer. Sometimes we do indeed have pages which answer their questions. We already have some "investing" advice pages, but they are rather disjointed, and this is my attempt to rectify the situation.
Some advice offered by dealers is an obvious sales pitch to sell something they want to push, and I have always tried to give advice which is in the best interest of the customer, rather than my own commercial interest. The payback I hope comes when the recipient realises that we are genuine, have given good advice, and get rewarded with their trade. This fits nicely with wanting to make a modest profit at competitive prices, and do so frequently and repeatedly, as opposed to making a big fat profit once. I still believe this is a good long term strategy, although I do notice quite a few short-termist competitors doing quite well.
