    Whats needed is something like m e r c h a n t c i r c l e . com simple 1 page that is geared towards getting businesses to add there company. My company name for logo will be ServicesListed , if its possible to not use a person even better but as there is not much text or anything like that then you may need to as there may be no way to fill up the space...

    You can use the text that is on merchantc****.com to fill up the design as long as i can change that later as i still am not 100% sure how to put the words together so its not so similar to there site.

    1 thing to add is 10 featured listings, somewere small within the design, and they would look like this

    Featured Listings
    Joe The Plumber, 2127 My Street, Rochester, NY 14605
    Jasons Electrical company, 2127 My Street, Orlando, FL 34787
    Joe The Plumber, 2127 My Street, Rochester, NY 14605
    Jasons Electrical company, 2127 My Street, Orlando, FL 34787

    if you need anything else let me know

    I'm a bit confused as to what content you need on the site,
    do you need any forms? navigation? testimonials?

    do you have any examples of site you like?

    no navigation, a form were they input there phone number and click submit yes , pretty much a splash page, there will not be much text, please use the text found on merchantcircl*.com to make mine example of what text im talking about below....

    example...
    "Free Online Advertising for Your Local Business
    Join the 650,000 businesses across the country who get customers with Internet Marketing from ServicesListed.
    Best of all, it's FREE!"
    this text should be in html so i can change it later


    a clone of merchantcircl*.com if youd like to call it that



    contest includes logo

    Basically remake this, with a logo for ServicesListed instead and with your own design skills or idea so that it doesnt nessarily look like a copy of there site + add 10 Featured company Listings into the design which should maybe help make it just a tad bit more different then theres

    looks very good willhaynes.... you pretty much got the entire idea right off... one thing i would like is the logo to be changed... i dont like the squares or something about the logo just doesnt look right, maybe try to use 1 more color on the logo and change the squares to something else? also should say ServicesListed :)

    seems nobody else is entering this contest, i do like willhaynes design enough to call him the winner if he redesigns a better logo for it.

    Looks too similar to merchant circles website, a laprop along with a rounded rectangle just looks too similar, the little cartoon guy is cool.


    gsmile
    looks good, nice and clean, i do like the design but because willhaynes design doesnt look as similar to merchant circle id say hes ahead.

    i prefer it looks as least possible to merchantc and even though all 3 designs that have entered the contest look somewhat similar im in a way leaning towards the one that looks the least to it.
