| Q |
DOES
STONECLAVE HAVE A "HISTORY?" Stoneclave's
"history" is currently being written in novel form in the guise of a
science-fiction/fantasy work. But don't expect to see it anytime
soon - this is a project we're working on in our spare time (which
there's precious little of!) However, we ARE putting the finishing
touches on a short work called INSPIRATIONS FROM THE BOOK OF
STONECLAVE, filled with daily inspirational quotes and passages
which we hope to publish
soon! |
| Q |
WHAT IS
"THE BOOK OF STONECLAVE?" The Book of Stoneclave
is a collection of thoughts, quotes and contemplations on life that have inspired and
guided us through difficult times. You can see many of the quotes from the book featured
in our Quote of the Day section. |
| Q |
DOES YOUR SITE
PROMOTE SPECIFIC BELIEF SYSTEMS? No. Stoneclave is not affiliated with any religion or
similar practice, and does not attempt to promote these beliefs. We created the website in
more of a self-improvement type of vein, and try to communicate the message that everyone
has the ability to create the life they desire if they so choose. |
| Q |
WHAT PROGRAMS DID YOU USE TO CREATE YOUR WEBSITE?
We've used several
different programs that serve different purposes:
Microsoft's Frontpage
- for basic web design and layout;
Site Build-It!
- a great all-in-one program that lets you design your site and
optimize it to generate traffic through search engines. Highly
recommended.
Adobe Photoshop - for graphics creation
Terragen - for generating Stoneclave landscape images
Macromedia Dreamweaver - web design, programming and layout |
| Q |
HOW DO YOU PROMOTE AND
MARKET STONECLAVE?
The list of techniques
we use would fill up a small book, but here's a few of the basic
strategies we're using effectively to generate traffic (and income)
from our website:
Ken Envoy's online
marketing products are priceless (and priced right!) By far the best
has been Make Your
Site Sell! You can try many of his
products for
free as well!
Corey Rudl's
Internet
Marketing Course is another gem that covers a wide range of
online strategies. He also offers a
monthly newsletter jam-packed with marketing tips. Highly
recommended.
JDD Publishing offers a value-priced book,
Insider Internet
Marketing, that'll get you started on the basics of internet
marketing and promotion. For more advanced training, you can try
their Make A
Living Online course. |
| Q |
HOW DO YOU
GENERATE THE SOUND AND AUDIO FOR YOUR SITE? Most of the streaming audio you hear on the
site is produced using SAW-32 Sound Editing software, which allows us to combine many
different audio sources into a single file or "show". Once each show is
completed, we encode it in RealAudio using Real.com's
RealPublisher software. |
| Q |
CAN YOU CREATE
AUDIO FOR MY SITE? Yes
we can. We've got a well-rounded background in the radio and voiceover industry which
allows us to create pretty much anything you're looking for, from online
"commercials" and promos to musical stories and more. We can also produce audio
using vocal or audio tracks that you provide. |
| Q |
CAN I USE YOUR
GRAPHICS ON MY WEBSITE? Most of the graphics you see on our website are
Stoneclave-specific, but if you'd like to use any generic buttons or other images there
isn't usually a problem. all we ask is that you request our permission first and send us a
link to the site where you're using the image. |
| Q |
CAN I LINK TO
YOUR WEBSITE? Absolutely!
But first you'll want to visit our free banners page and download a banner to use on your
site. Once you've chosen one, simply link to the following address: "http://www.stoneclave.com"
and you're set! |
