The newest professionally designed custom website completed by Tom Rumish Website Development is a Vacation Homes by Owner website, for a vacation rental home in south central Wisconsin.

The owners of the Wisconsin vacation rental property were paying a fairly large sum of money each year to have their log chalet listed for rent on a vacation rentals’ website. In addition to the recurring cost to have the vacation rental home listed on the website, the owners of the vacation rental property were restricted in the amount of information and photos that they could be included in the listing.

For slightly more than what they were paying for one year’s listing, the owners were able to have their own website. There are, of course no restrictions on the amount of information or photos that they can display of their vacation home rental property now that they have a website dedicated to their own property. A rental availability calendar was incorporated into the website which can be updated by the owners from any computer with internet access. A Google map and driving directions were also placed on the vacation home rental website, making it easy for potential clients to visually see exactly where the rental log chalet is located.

VIDEO FOR YOUR WEBSITE
In January of this year I wrote a blog posting about the advantages of adding video to websites. Within the past 30 days Tom Rumish Website Development has edited, published and embedded four videos into the Gunflint Trail resort website of Hungry Jack Lodge and Campground.

All of the 4 videos for Hungry Jack Lodge were edited and then uploaded to YouTube, to take advantage of the additional exposure that YouTube can provided for the Hungry Jack Lodge website. The YouTube versions of the videos were then embedded into the Hungry Jack Lodge and Campground website for viewing on various pages of the website. Three of the videos were “presentational” in nature and one of the videos is instructional. All of the videos are in Hi Definition (HD) and include company logo overlays and embedded music or narration.

The instructional video on the Hungry Jack Lodge website was created from scratch by Tom Rumish Website Development. It was done using the same process used to create various video tutorials. The video shown below is the instruction video which was created by Tom Rumish for the Gunflint Trail resort.




Website video editing of your videos for your company website has the potential to turn someone who is just a website visitor into a new client. Custom edited website video on your website is a great way to inform your site visors about your company products and services. Generally speaking, people are lazy. Just as most people prefer watching the news on TV instead of reading a newspaper people likewise are drawn to website videos as opposed to actually reading the text on your web pages.
