Make a Fortune - Most
'built for profit' websites never make their
owners a dime... and are proof that no amount of
technology can compensate for an ignorance of sound
marketing concepts. This article explains what you need
to know to make your web site a 'selling machine'.
Design Concepts
and Compatibility - This 'Must Read' info should
be considered before you begin. Not every computer will
see the same thing as yours does. Considering the
'do's and don'ts' of compatibility issues
before starting will save you a lot of time later when
you have to modify your entire web site for
compatibility with everyone's computer system.
Put your
Graphics on a Diet - Graphic files MUST load fast.
When a web page takes too long to load, your visitor
will click away to another site. If you don't have
graphics, your web site looks bad. Either way, it
means lost sales! Here's how to put your graphic
files on a diet. Some of these methods will really
surprise you.
How to Use Tables - MUST
KNOW INFO! Every good web site needs them. Tables
will allow
you to position everything exactly where you want, such as
centered check lists and the side bars on this web page. Almost
every web site uses them. Tables are an absolute
necessity for any good web design. This article explains
how to use them.
How to Use
Frames - Do you need them? Frames
allow you to anchor parts of your screen when you scroll
down the page and speed up page load times by
only loading the parts of the pages which need to be
changed. Frames will allow you to create a menu on the
side of each web page by using only one easy to change
menu file. Also, to be compatible with search engines, you
will need to copy and paste this short JavaScript code
into the header of each 'body' page.
