It looks nice but until you know an environment you can't give a fair estimate. you need to be cautious though, asking some questions is fine, we all ask lots of questions, but it seems you dont have any sort of plan for what you're trying to do.

well, there aren't any "big box" stores that carry most of his brands. of course Patagonia, TNF, Frye, etc, are big brands carried everywhere, but most of his clothing vendors cater to the boutique scene. Once something hits say Dillard, or stores similar to that, they quit carrying them. Usually because the brand has decided to push volume instead of quality.

and no, no research. was hoping for a super magic SEO answer

I'm a Whiskey/Bourbon type of fellow, other than that, i fell @MattSpeller and I could be related.

i found a decent dell i5 in my pile of computers. gonna whip a ssd, 8-16 gb of ramz, and a cheapo video card in and try it out

i'm gonna build a steam PC. @Mike-Ralston help. $500 or less

What is this steam?

The locals use the store as an online catalog. "oh they have that in stock I want it" and then they take screen shots, show up int he store, show the worker their phone and ask for whatever size lol. I'm trying to figure out how to grow his strictly web sales. I belive most of his potential growth is in this region.

yes. the previous owners of this house replaced their gas unit with an electric flat top....stupid. when a few stars line up we will be replacing this unit with gas.

@Nic um, no. well not any that we've had. they have a pipe out the top of the roof.

over the stove? i know i seem to be making a lot of "The South" comments but we love cooking down here. lots of folk in our circle have nice commercial vent hoods Wolf, Viking, etc. yes, it's overkill, but man it looks cool.

@RojoLoco if used indoors you'd for sure want to use it under a vent hood. we have one that pops up from the counter top that's pretty neat.

yeah, i'm feeling that. how few people are googling "drake xyz jacket" etc. hrm.

yeah, my head was local

bilboards in other towns!

this is what i'm trying to figure out. he's not doing much as far as driving traffic, i know that's what it takes, but i'm not sure how to achieve it. I dont think bilboards are the key as everyone who is willing to spend this type of money on clothing already knows about his store and prefers the in-store experience. i'm talking about how to get this site popping in the US. it's geared kinda southern US. He follows the trends of the southern college kid up to the 30-40 somethings with spare change.

anybody here a SEO expert?

that's what i'm asking you

Do we have any web guru's round here? My father in law has a brick and mortar retail store that does very well and has for 30+ years now. 3-4 years ago he popped up a website in hopes of spreading his success to the web realm to no avail. He's got an in house marketing/graphic/site maintainer guy, but he is not driving much new traffic to the site, and since his main job is site maintenance etc.... it's hard to pay him full time (IMO). I like my father in law, his store is great, his site is okay, i like the fella who is taking care of their marketing, photography, commercials, etc and i want the site to succeed. what to do?

oh.... and how could i forget?! a smoker. everyone likes smoked meat....but the south does it better. i've discovered this thing called Amazin Pellet Tray. I have an electric smoker because i can keep the temperature controller better, but the smoke was not as nice. this thing rocks
