Spudnik! Give your Ning lift off ...
I run a social network for lawyers.
I am also available to hire if you want a clean, modern looking Ning site. I specialise in business/professional sites.
Here are some bespoke projects I've worked on:
- A social network dedicated to bringing entrepreneurs and investors together
- Landscapers Community (with Premium member options)
- A community of Decking Professionals
- Education-based Network in Africa
- Professional Networking Site in Asia
- Leading Tech Platform in the US
- Local Newspaper site in the US
- NaOurOwn.com
- Debt Professionals Network
- The History of the Irish Worldwide
I am also available on retainer if you need someone to help run your site.
Here's what I do:
- Ning network design using Design Studio and CSS.
- Bespoke 'pages' e.g. this 'About' page.)
- jQuery - make your network do things it doesn't do 'out-of-the-box'.
- Graphic design including logos, sliders and icons.
- Best practice advice on running your network (subjective, I know, but I'll assist if asked).
Here's what I don't do:
- Ning API
- Widgets or Apps.
Please message me here on Creators for pricing etc. Cheers, SP.
Here are some of the tips I've posted on Creators.
They're free for you to plunder and use to your heart's content.
Feel free to spoon me with your love in return.
Calls to Action Based on Member Type
Use Social Icons instead of Profile Question Answers
Share your network button - an alternative to badges
Don't be shy, share it on Facebook. Some CSS to encourage posting to FB
Most Read Email Template - encourage people to share
Do you have a Why Use Page? - Template attached
Inbox and Friend Request Alert CSS - next best thing to onsite notifications?
Slicker looking messaging area
LinkedIn Share Button
Blog listings page - Give it a nicer look
Broadcast message template
Insert Social Icons into your Navigation Bar
Simple tip: Save space on Profile Information section
Add "Follow" Icons to Member Account Module
Advanced Featured Member Area for your Home Page
Insert Adverts in Content after the First Paragraph
