The phone rings and I pick up and this guy named Hanoch Teller introduces himself. I am thinking, is that the famous Hanoch Teller or some other guy?
He then describes that he has a web site at HanochTeller.com that gets virtually no traffic. I take a quick look and quickly see why.
To make a short story shorter, he is coming to meet with me Friday. He will be in America and can make it to my office this Friday. I feel bad, his site is in bad shape - very bad shape - hopefully we can help him out.
I do see that he has a Wikipedia entry, so that is nice... I told my wife that he is coming and she said, "Get out!!!!"
Here is a bio I found on the web - it may or may not be accurate:
Rabbi Hanoch Teller, renowned story-teller and modern-day maggid, has addressed audiences in 19 countries on five continents. A prolific writer, he is the author of 20 books, including the "Soul Stories" series. Rabbi Teller is also a highly respected instructor in numerous seminaries for women in Jerusalem, and the producer of the newly-released video, Do You Believe in Miracles? Rabbi Teller's talks present a thought-provoking contemporary view of issues relevant to every concerned Jew, featuring heart-warming personal observations on the human condition and Jewish life.

Rusty,
Traffic is as much of a challenge as he has conversion issues. If you would like I'd be happy to spend some time on the phone with both of you to deal with this.

His site is still not in working order. I take it you didn't get him as a client? He will be back in the states next month.

Not that I didn't get him as a client. We were a bit too pricy but I offered him free advice on finding a freelancer.

His site is up. It looks pretty nice.
