I am so pleased to announce the completion of a project that has been in the works for quite some time. Not only am I happy to have finished it, but I am so very proud of the result.

In the time since I have arrived here at TatStore, nearly a year ago, I have learned that it is our policy to deliver real value to our customers and do everything we can to make them successful and profitable. Along with delivering industry leading products and services, we also strive to pay-it-forward by delivering premiere free services to our customers, and quite honestly to individuals who may never become our customers. That’s the reason for our blog, or articles, and even this very blog.

It is this goal – to help our customers succeed – that inspired us to explore a relationship with Ekwa.com a leader in the hosted web solutions field which specializes in social marketing. Like TatStore, Ekwa aims to give its members the highest value available anywhere.

We here at TatStore have been working with graphic designers and web developers at Ekwa for the past several months. Together we have crafted a template which we hope will perfectly suit the needs of our customers who are looking to take their business into cyberspace but are not yet ready for a fully custom design. This fantastic template is similar to other the other solutions which were mentioned by our own Brad and Alex in Getting a Website: Part 2, but with certain functionality details which were tailored especially for TatStore’s customers.

Check out what we’ve done at my sample page bennthewolfe.ekwa.com.

This theme provides the perfect blend of static and dynamic elements calibrated for maximum appeal to Temporary Airbrush Tattoo business owners. You will notice that it offers a field for a business overview, services provided, testimonials, news, and a blog… right on the front page. You will also notice that the page is festooned with actual TatStore tats like #6 stars. In addition this solution also provides a contact us section, where your customers can actually get in contact with you without even having to open an email program. This actually gives your site a very nice professional touch. Similarly professional, I am particularly impressed with the built in photo gallery at the top. The interface is much more complicated than those on most professional sites that I have visited.

Now are you ready for the best part? All of this is provided to you, our TatStore customers absolutely free! That’s right, all of this won’t cost you one red cent. Can you believe it. I just really have to thank the people at Ekwa for helping us deliver this value to you. So go check them out at Ekwa.com, and get your free hosted site today. (You will find this theme, labeled TatStore, in the list of selectable themes). PS: I am hoping to have a screencast tutorial on using your new site by Monday of next week.
