Dear Paul,
I just wanted to send you a note expressing
my gratitude for the hard work you have put into our web site.
With your help, our web site www.chem-quest.com
is now a useful tool. You have added a touch of professionalism
that we were unable to get from other web site developers.
Since you have redesigned our
web site we have seen an increase in our sales. We are now
able to share information with our customers, that in the past
would have created more work for us on a day-to-day basis.
One of many things that really
stood out was that you were always available to speak with,
so that we are able to make necessary changes as needed. You
have become an asset to our company.
Thank you for all your hard work!
Sincerely,
Jeffrey A. Long
Co-owner
Chem Quest, Inc."

Re: Letter of Reference
Paul,
I am writing to let you know the great things that I think
you do for your customers!!!
I own and operate a computer network consultation business….and
share numerous customers with Following Seas. Our business
relationship began in 2002 through a business networking
group. I started
referring Paul Forman of Following Seas soon after that initial
meeting.
Paul Forman possesses qualities that have become rare today….especially
with many “website companies”
making so many empty promises. I often hear many complaints
from businesses regarding their past or
current web service company. Paul Forman of Following Seas
definitely stands apart from the rest!
- Paul seems to always be available!
When I have ever sent Paul an e-mail or left a voice mail
it is always answered promptly. He is
always within reach.
- Paul will go above and beyond!
In the technological world we live in today it seems to be nearly impossible
to install computer
technology without some sort of problem….big or small. Whenever I have
brought a problem to
Paul’s attention it has always received prompt attention. I rarely have
issues with his hosting
service….but it is reassuring to know someone is available to help when
you need it.
- Paul brings quality without all the “fluff”!
Paul designs websites with functionality in mind. Today this is important as
so many websites are
difficult to navigate due to annoying sights and sounds that make visiting the
site unpleasant.
Websites are developed by Following Seas utilizing technology that brings the
best total value to
the customer.
Following Seas offers services like hosting, development,
maintenance, positioning and consultation. I
would strongly recommend that any business talk with Paul
before embarking on any sort of web project
from registering a domain name to building an entire site
from scratch. Every customer I have
recommended to Paul at Following Seas has had great words
to say about the entire experience.
Should anyone like to discuss Paul Forman or Following Seas
please feel free to e-mail or phone me."

| "I wanted to write a short letter to express
how pleased our company has been with the job that Paul Forman
of Following Seas Web Design has done serving the web needs
of our company.
Paul stepped in and took over our web needs in record time
when our last service provider left us in a jam. He designed
a great looking website for us and got it up and running
very quickly including flawlessly switching over 25 email
aliases.
Paul was always very responsive and made any requested changes
to our site within just a few days or hours depending upon
the complexity of the request. All of my phone calls and
emails were returned in a prompt and professional manner.
I would highly recommend Paul and his company to anyone
looking to have a website built or hosted.
Please feel free to contact me if you should have any questions.
Sincerely,"

have found that Paul's advice, expertise and professionalism
far exceeded

"I
wanted to share with you our thanks for a job well done this
year. Since you took over regular management of our web site,
both traffic and the quality of our leads has steadily improved.
This is not an easy task especially in light of some search
engines dropping our listing and the difficulty in getting
re-listed. Your ongoing, persistent efforts are what have
helped us maintain high visibility on the web. Here are some
highlights:
As of
our most recent monitoring reports, we have 18 new listings
in a search engines' top 30 search results for our keywords.
This is terrific progress. Overall we now list in the top
30 for 70% of the search engine keyword combinations we monitor
weekly. Nearly 50%
(48.7%) are top ten listings. For our most important search
word "viscosity" we show up in 13 out of the 19
search engines within the top 30 listings, which includes
two #1 listings (with NBCi and Snap) #3 with Excite and a
very impressive #8 with Yahoo Web Sites (the largest engine
and our most important keyword).
In addition,
as we have had site changes, text additions, added new content
etc., your work has been timely, and caused little or not
interruption to site availability which is not always easy
given the volume of content improvements. Moreover, the site
remains friendly and
useful and we often receive comments from our customers that
they really like how easy it is to use.
I wanted
to also mention on a personal note, that it is really great
to work with someone that is as easy to work with and takes
the worry out of making sure things are done right.
We look
forward to building on our recent successes and to accomplishing
even more this year."
