Let me tell you, if you’re not doing everything you can to boost the conversion rate of your website – you’re either losing your money or losing your client’s money (and your client should probably fire you). Over the last year, my eyes have been opened and I’ve begun to realize how much power I have over website visitors to squash their fears and nudge them toward making larger purchases. ”

I grew up surrounded by lighthouses, but in warmer waters than yours. The Bahamas is on a shallow stretch of water. There are still old lighthouses on many of the islands.
People who travel a bit usually like lighthouses, whether they are working or not.
