Hey guys let me know what you think of the new nav bar and .gif animation on my website. I know that none of the links work and that there are watermarks on the images. But im no where near done.

Haha yea I know, i saw applelawn in google after I registered applelawnS and I though I might loose business, but hopefully not.


I decided to start the business when I couldn't find a job that I wanted to do over the summer. I didnt like being an umpire, and caddy at a golf course was just not for me. I called the grocery stores and you have to be 16. So i said "well ill just cut grass and get a real job next year" But now that im making a website and doing marketing and stuff I really like it. And i wouldnt get to do that at a regular job. I'm just starting for the first time and I got my first customer the other day. Her husband has a back problem or something like that so I new that I would have a for sure sale. And sure enough, I told her what I was doing, gave her my business card, and she was so impressed that I had actual business cards, that she signed a contract right there. So as of now I only have 1 customer, but I'm working on some designs for flyers right now, and hope to have them out by next week. And if I can't get the flyers to bring in some business, I'm gonna be heading door to door. My equipment. hmmmm. dont know if it deserves the name equipment. lol. But I have a toro push mower (self propelled) a gas weed eater, an edger, a leaf blower, and a snow blower. There all new except the snow blower, and are in good working condition.


Keep checking the website and let me know what you think because I'm gonna be up dating it constantly

What don't you like about the background. Should I put a different background there or just leave it blank?
