Subject: Testimonial

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."

"Working with Paul as he developed my website was such an easy and pleasant
process. What struck me most about Paul was his commitment to producing a
website that I was 100% satisfied with. He certainly goes “the extra mile” in delivering his services. Paul is knowledgeable, creative, efficient, patient and friendly. I will continue to highly recommend him to my colleagues, friends and clients."

Anne Romano, C.P.A.

"We have found that Paul's advice, expertise and professionalism far exceeded
our expectations. His knowledge of business, especially marketing separated him from most web consultants. If you want your business to move forward in the Ecommerce
world, you should definitely consider Following Seas."

"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."
