        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.

          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.
