Web Design - Write A Press Release To Increase Your Web Site Traffic
A press release (PR) is one one the many tools available to you to draw more visitors to your web site. Granted, it is not a direct method since when someone comes across your press release and clicks on it she is taken not to your own web site but to the PR site where the release is listed. However since the release also has your links and web address, the interested reader can still find and visit your web site. With enough interesting press releases on the web containing your keywords, you can rest assured that surfers will eventually hit your release within the first page of search results.

A Few Insights on Web Design
Maybe it's just me, but I doubt it. I go to some, okay, most websites and they are so busy and poorly laid out that I just get lost in all the text and graphics. And I'm not even getting into how the site navigates. Was there some class in web design school that said white space is bad? Let it be known, I'm not formally trained in web design. And I don't consider myself a web designer. I would consider myself a web developer. I build sites in basic html. I have built quite a few sites for myself and for others. I have also viewed tens of thousands of other people's sites. It is from these experiences as both a designer/developer and a consumer/user perspective that I have come to find most sites missing the mark.
Designing a Web Site - Part 1, Choosing the Right Web Design Company
Recently I took on a new customer through a referral. In discussing their needs, I found out that a very well known web design and search engine optimisation company had not been straight with her. When we were able to tell her what we could do for her and at what price, she realised that she had previously been misled. The hourly cost of some companies might seem attractive, but the number of hours they claim they need to do the job is the ugly side of the coin. Cases like this prompted me to write this article. People need to be aware of certain essentials when looking for a web design company.
What Is In A Website? Or Isn t But Should Be
Designing a website that is user friendly is equally as important as designing it neurologically friendly. Imagining how others would feel and react to the content, and creating an "easy on the eyes" experience is essential to building a website with broad appeal. Our life experiences and the use of our five senses dictate our reactions. We all use our nervous system differently to learn and absorb information. Some learn visually, while others prefer hearing or feeling. When designing your website, it makes perfect sense to try and balance the content to satisfy as many visitors as possible.
Just Say No to Splash Pages
A splash page is an introductory page to your website, usually containing an enlarged version of your graphic or logo, possibly an animation or introductory movie, and perhaps some site requirements or a choice of how to view your website. Splash pages are a popular request web designers get from their customers, and one many designers still concede to since it can be an opportunity for them to be a bit more creative using tools like Flash that they may not get to use as often as they like. I'm here to tell you today that in just about every case splash pages are a bad idea. If this is even a question in your mind, if you can't prove that you need a splash page for a specific reason, then I intend to show you why that's a sign to just say no.
Web Design - Be an Architect
Architecture is a word often used to describe the execution of knowledge-based content in web design. "Architecture" is actually a very good term to use because when you work at developing content for your ecommerce site you can either throw it together in a haphazard way or you be very deliberate about how you "construct" your knowledge-based web pages. A Common Mistake One of the mistakes that seems to be repeated most often is thinking your web pages need to function in much the same way as an ebook. In this scenario the web pages are difficult for casual viewers to use because there is so much information.
