If we could pool 8 people, each with their own aspect

Ill do some SEO for it:Keyword Analysis would be a good start for a site.

reguarding interest in website design and tweaking im sure i wouldnt be the only one willing to grab some quality work done by some of th eexcellent designers on here

can we maybe have a list of examples

ie: site design you say £1500 to £3000'ish
whats approx cost on some other things


as i need a person to add products and content for example as i have had a few emails about this with lee but had a wedding to sort out in the middle

i then need the main pages Seo'ing

so guideline prices would help im sure

if 8 people or so would do as suggested, how many pages how many products?

count me interested

We can donate some software or paper.

If we could pool 8 people, each with their own aspect to do on a new site and bring all 8 areas together all within one 24 hour period, i think that'd be great. We might even be able to wangle someone some money out of Chris Barling towards it.

Count me in if there's stuff I can do - love this idea.

I'm also happy to run a 24 hour design and problem solving service

Think that's a great idea - though have feeling you may need to extend it to cope with the demand!

I think lee is on about building a NEW site from scratch in 24hrs - correct me if im wrong Lee??

[Cheapprices4u]

how about a "pimp my store"

goddies and desgin, seo etc

That's the idea Gareth, you get some quality work done at reduced prices, designers do something good and CiN get some valuable funds into the pot.

I guess at this early stage it's a case of gauging which site owners would like what and which designers/actinic users would like to join the team. I understand all cannot do a 24 hour period, but that is what i will be doing i hope and we could then have shifts through the day/night.

A live commentary on proceedings in the forum would be good too, hmm i wonder who never shuts up and needs something to keep her quiet, yes bumpsy i am referring to you. In between you setting up hidden products for stock control.

We also need a leader to bring things together and control proceedings otherwise we will earn about 3 quid and duplicate stuff about 14 times each.

hey....my ears are burning

Not sure I can be much help but hey, if I can do nothing else, I can talk/type

Pimp My Site - sounds like a good idea to me. Perhaps Actinic Towers would get in on the act and offer a software upgrade for the winner or a page about the event on thier site so it would bring in some traffic.

You would need to watch if the winner was a V7 site upgrading to V8 - 24 hrs would certainly be a chalange

Lee was offering to do a V6 to V8 in 20 minutes earlier!

I'm flexible Mal, that was certainly my original thought, but if people would prefer a workshop type affair, i am happy with that too. I just have a real desire to do something this year, i read and saw something recently and something flicked a switch inside and told me that it must be 'this' year, not one of the 'next' years if you catch my drift.

I am happy to do more than a day if the work was there, i would happily do a 48 hour no sleep kind of thing. This forum is like home and i would like for one day in the year to bring us all unconditionally together and do some good.

I think to build a new site in 24hrs would be better as it will be easier to see what has actually been acieved rather than a site make over where the end result will not be as noticable.

A 24hr site will also be more marketable for the luck winner

[RuralWeb]

Why not get Actinc to advertise it for us - you could perhaps bump the price up a bit then to say £1000 which is still a bargin

Err no i was saying i would convert to single product per page across the site and include the price in the section link layouts in that time.

Good points and more of a legacy left also. More of a challenge too i guess.
