GreatHoney.com, your source for pure honey on the Internet.
Each month NetObjects recognizes the most outstanding Web site created with NetObjects Fusion. We present the winner with our Site of the Month Award as well as many other prizes. Congratulations, GreatHoney.com! Visit their site at www.greathoney.com.
What Makes a Winner We selected GreatHoney.com for many reasons. The site is simple, personable, clean, and friendly, as well as refreshing in its honesty and simplicity. Here are a few more reasons we like GreatHoney.com:
The site name identifies the site’s purpose—to sell honey.
It’s clear that it´s a small, family-owned business. There’s a picture of Chris Sauer, the owner and Webmaster of GreatHoney.com on the Home page with his child.
You know where the business is located—the site provides links to their historic town, and community.
They readily identify the products they sell.
They provide other resources of interest to their customers, such as selling books about bee keeping. And they link to MapQuest for driving directions to their place of business.
It’s obvious they use a NetObjects SiteStyle.
They are very passionate about beekeeping and honey, made obvious by their audio links to radio broadcasts with Real Player G2, and links to other online bee and honey resources, as well as honey recipes.
About Our Winner Chris Sauer, owner and Webmaster of GreatHoney.com, had this to say about his business and why they went online:
“Colesburg Apiaries is a small, family-owned business in the rolling hills of northeastern Iowa. We started with five hives in 1996 and have expanded to 50 hives in 1999. Our goal is to stay small enough to retail most of our honey directly to our customers, maintaining a high level of personal service.”
“We wanted to increase our direct marketing of honey. Feeling we had saturated our local markets, going online gave us a chance to reach many more customers.”
Why Our Winner Prefers NetObjects Fusion Chris Sauer says Colesburg Apiaries chose NetObjects Fusion to build GreatHoney.com for three reasons:
You can easily create and manage a hierarchy of pages on the site.
It’s easy for a new Web designer to customize the site using NetObjects Fusion templates and built-in features.
NetObjects Fusion enables you to easily create a professional look.
