| It's Not Your Website |
 |
|
Many people design websites from their point of
view. This is a big mistake! Just because you like a
certain color or design does not make it right for your
website. Remember the old saying, "The customer is
always right".
It's not your website anyway. It was built for your
customer and you should be looking at it from your
customer's point of view, not yours. Remember to
focus on your customer's needs.
Put yourself in your customers place.
- Look at your site from customer's point of
view
- Focus on their needs and wants
- Offer a solution to their problems
Do these things and you will see your online business
increase. If you don't take good care of your
customers, somebody else will!

| Web Design - Top 5 Mistakes |
 |
|
By: Mike Marinaro
There are many mistakes that web designers make.
Here are the top 5 common mistakes I have seen.
Too many Ads
It's ok to have ads on your website; however, you
do not want to have so many ads that they
become intrusive. Remember your visitors came to
your site for information not ads. Don't let your
ads overwhelm your content.
Weird Fonts
Just because you found some fancy font that you
think is great doesn't mean that everyone else has
the same font. Stick to the common fonts such as
Arial, Times New Roman, and Veranda. That way you
will be sure that everbody can read them.

| Writing Articles To Promote Your Website |
 |
|
By David Fishman
Writing articles is an
excellent way for you to get free publicity. The
techniques for writing articles are numerous and
beyond the scope of this article. That is why writing
articles are one of the most utilized Internet
marketing media today. Many marketers know that
writing articles are great and powerful methods to
marketing online. Although writing articles are very
easy to do once you know how, getting someone to
show you the tricks can be the hard part. Both the
press release and writing articles are two important
steps on the road to internet marketing success. I
think speaking and writing articles are effective ways
to keep your name out there. Writing articles are one
of the oldest forms of advertising on the internet.
A quality web site should contain at least some
original content. Articles make great keyword-rich
content for your site. Duplicate content is penalized
in the Google search engine results and many other
search engines are following. Creating effective web
content is a skill that is built over time and
experience. Good articles are content rich. The best
kept secret of traffic is still the secret of good
content. Because content is still superior on the
internet, writing articles provides you with a major
piece of leverage online. Providing the content the
search engines need is a virtual gold mine for
entrepreneurs. Content is superior, this will never
change on the internet. Writing web content is much
like writing articles. Many people don't realize that a
website needs good content to work. Try to focus
most of your time getting good content for your web
site.

Flash |
|
|
|
Flash has become a big trend in website design over
the past few years. However, I do not use Flash in
my designs and I would like to explain my reasons
here.
#1 Flash slows down the loading of your
website. Contrary to popular belief, there
are
still many users who use a slow dial-up connection to
browse the Internet. Flash is not bandwidth friendly!
#2 Flash requires a special
player. Many
people do not have a Flash Player installed on their
computer and they are not willing to or don't know
how to install it! #3 Flash can be annoying!
Sure Flash is cool and it looks good, but it
also
can be very annoying. If someone came to your site
looking for information they will most likely get
annoyed if they have to wait for a flash movie to
play before they can even begin browsing your
website. #4 It takes a lot of time to design
Flash files. If I were to use Flash in my
website
designs I would have to charge much higher prices
due to the fact that it is very time consuming to
design in Flash.
