MIne is total crap but it is orange which excuses everything in my view.

That's funny, mine's crap and orange too!

My firm does. The site is very professional and boring-looking. It does attract the odd unsolicited customer but they're usually not in my league. I agree with the Emperor Dalek (can't believe I'm saying that!) - it's just a reassurance. Kind of like if you're a rock band and don't have a MySpace page people think you don't exist any more.

It is the "our" that I could never get my head around. In most cases it is one man. Once you know that the rest reads like bulltulip.

That's my quandary at the moment. I'm currently putting a site together and have used we/our/us right the way through. I've included no personal details whatsoever, just focused on my products and services. If I'm lucky enough to get any enquiries I'm sure I can do some smoke and mirrors stuff to maintain the fiction. I'm hoping it won't be long before we/us/our is a bit more accurate

It is not a big deal. For a start, 90% of the sites out there for "software companies" are 1-man-bands. Secondly, you can legitimately use 'we' quite easily. I am the only employee of MyCo but I have hired contractors/freelancers and that is my planned model until I win projects more than a few months long.

Blimey, a blast from the past.

Even Fleety RIP posted in this thread.

For much of the time I was a contractor I had a website with a specific email address that was only used there.

That account never once got an email. I did however get some junk mail to the (very slightly) altered address of my registered office.

It may have been down to my poor web skills, but I doubt it.
