The new lame website

Promises promises.
When one of the best web designers in the region promises to build you a website at no cost, that's an exciting day. But when it's at no cost, you are powerless to push for that day to come. It never did.

So for 6 months Ultimate Aquariums had no website. We launched a Facebook Fan page, which has done incredibly well and served as a great way to communicate with our customers. It will continue to do so.

In the meantime, I learned the value of Google sites, and created a new website for the business. I am a bit of a writer, photographer, video producer and social media junkie. My REAL job is public relations executive, and small business owner. I really don't have any business "designing" websites.

But I did, and if you are reading this you likely passed through. (Thanks) If you are like me, you found it to be a place that showed how Ultimate Aquariums is a true aquarium specialty store offering a wide array of stuff you really can't find anywhere else around here. That goes for the advice that comes from our dedicated staff too.

If you are like my son, the college student, who also works in the store -- you thought the website was, "lame" or as a friend of mine used to say, "Bo-Bo."

So be it. We have a Bo-Bo website. No fancy cross faded pictures, no depth to the style of the text, and a very basic design.

Over time, however it will be more about the content than the Bo-Bo-ness. It will be your portal to our YouTube page where we do better than average videos, to our Facebook Fan page where customers meet to talk about their tanks, and yes, this -- The Ultimate Blog.

So welcome to the blog, welcome to the website, and welcome to Ultimate Aquariums. The website design may be "lame" but I promise the content won't be.
