I Just Got a Revamp and So is This Web Site

I had a corrective jaw surgery to correct my misaligned jaws 4 weeks ago. I created a web site to document my process of correcting my jaws on my new web site, Vince’s Maxillofacial Surgery. I think I look pretty okay at the moment but during the first few days after my surgery, I think I looked really scary.

During my recovery time, I had a lot of time to think and plan my life. It seems like I have been putting my life on hold just to correct my jaws. I kept telling myself, “I will do XYZ after my jaw surgery!”

Some of the things that I have put on hold till after my jaw surgery are:

• Learning to drive and getting a driving license
• Changing my name
• Getting  a  new passport and national ID card
• Taking new photos for my web site, Facebook and other online activities
• Creating videos with my face on it
• Launching my products

Yes, I felt self-conscious about the way I used to look and it did negatively affect my life in some ways. The great thing is that chapter of my life is now almost over and I can move on and focus on other things in my life.

Why is this Web Site Getting a Revamp?

I have improved over the years and so has the social media and general internet world. I don’t feel like this web site is current any more. It does not serve my needs any more and I need to fix that.

Some of the new changes and improvements you will see are:

• Branding focus on me. You will not see words like “we” on this web site again. Expect to see my photo after every single blog post, on the home page and on the about pages.
• Wider sidebar. I need to sidebar to be wider and the overall page width to be wider too. I am getting rid of the blue borders on the side to make way for this change.
• Product showcase on the home page. I want to display my products and their benefits right at the top of the home page. At the moment, I don’t think they are being displayed to the public in the right way.
• I want people to get to know me. I will post content about myself and my thoughts more often. I have avoided doing that in the past and focused mainly on topics that are related to my business. I think that was a mistake.
• Facebook fan page and tighter Facebook integration. I am going to create a Facebook fan page and add a Facebook fan box to this web site. I am still new in this department and I will learn as I go along.

This is an exciting time for me because I am determined to correct the business blunders I made in the past and continuously improve myself and my business.
