I did another yesterday and will be doing two more this week. You can find recordings of past evaluation sessions, as well as schedule of those yet to happen here:</p>

<p>If you&#8217;d like to put your name in the hat to win one these insightful critiques of your home page, enter this week&#8217;s <a href="http://twtaway.com/lsoic4" target="_blank"><strong>Twitter contest</strong></a>. Full instructions can be found here:</p>
<div align="center" style="margin-bottom:20px"><a href="http://twtaway.com/lsoic4" target="_blank"><strong>http://twtaway.com/lsoic4</strong></a></div>
<p>Evaluations will be recorded via conference call and a live chat will be available for audience questions. Two evaluations will be awarded during this week&#8217;s contest, which is the final such contest.</p>
<p><strong>What is a home page evaluation?</strong><br />
I&#8217;ll take a look at the winner&#8217;s home page and assess whether or not it is helping the owner achieve their goal for the page. The winner will gain valuable &#8230; and actionable &#8230; advice on how to improve the effectiveness of their home page.</p>
<p>In addition, those listening to the evaluation will also pick up on juicy bits of information they can apply to their home pages, as well.</p>
<p><strong>What is the value of this prize?</strong><br />
I could say priceless &#8230; but that might be tacky, and this isn&#8217;t a VISA commercial. I provide full <a href="http://www.homesweethomepagebook.com/links/home-page-evaluation/" target="_blank">home page evaluation services</a> for between $199 and $249. This prize is a sub-set of that service valued at $75.</p>
<p><strong>What if I can&#8217;t make it?</strong><br />
I&#8217;ve scheduled two dates for the live evaluations. If you are the prize winner and can&#8217;t make either of those times, then I&#8217;ll have to select another winner.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a spectator, then you can always pick up the mp3 recording later, which will be made available.</p>
