Professional web designer, owner of Wordpressrevamp.com, and author of the concise and idea packed book Home Sweet Home Page: The 5 Deadly Mistakes Authors, Speakers and Coaches Make with Their Website's Home Page and How To Fix Them!, Carma Spence-Pothitt, describes how your website home page is your most important internet real estate.

Carma Spence-Pothitt (photo left) has been a writer and educator for almost her entire life. She first started telling … and attempting to write down stories …. at the age of three. Her talent with words was noted by her fourth grade teacher, who pulled her aside one day and told her she should become a writer.
Momentarily side-tracked by her love of science (she has a Bachelor’s degree in Biology), Carma eventually fell into a career as a science communicator. She has more than 20 years experience in marketing communications, as well as writing and editing, in the fields of health care, food and wine, computers, business, television, biology and agriculture. She can research, digest and write highly technical material while making this same material comprehensible to people unfamiliar with the topic. She has built her career on helping people understand something that is new to them, taking information—from dry facts to common knowledge to scientific research—and making it sparkle with life.
Maybe it’s her ADD or maybe it’s her insatiable curiosity, but Carma has developed quite an eclectic background: a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, a Master’s degree in Journalism from the number one public relations graduate program in the nation (according to U.S. News & World Report), and education in video production, science communication and dance. Her hobbies include baking, cooking, reading & watching speculative fiction, and collecting stamps and vintage science fiction movie posters.
A Toastmaster for six years — earning her Competent Toastmaster (CTM) Award and working half-way to her Able Toastmaster (ATM) Award — she has developed excellent verbal communication skills. She also produced a 27-minute video introducing new and prospective members to the Toastmasters experience.
Carma is passionate, enthusiastic, creative and kind. She pours her heart and soul into her writing and believes that everyone has a gift to give to the world.
