Will You Add? - Eight Common Web Mistakes that Website Designers Make when Designing
If you are a hard worker, intelligent and disciplined perhaps a career as a military officer is for you. It will not be easy and you have to prove your worth before you will be accepted into an academy.You must be college bound, good GPA and exemplary citizenship. Perhaps student government classes and sports will be looked on favorably, but most of all you will need a little juice and being no
MISTAKE #6: No or little attention to the use of keywords. It used to be that we would load our meta tags with keywords and a description of what our website was all about. We should still do this, but most of the search engines don’t rely on these today. It is imperative that we use the important keywords throughout our website’s content.
MISTAKE #7: Adding animation for effect. In the beginning, everyone thought this was fun and cute. Maybe for a youngster’s website if
A fascinating eBay case study is the number one seller on eBay, a little outfit called Marie's CDs, but is better known under its old name "1 Cent CD." Jay and Marie, current ID "jayandmarie", are an institution on eBay and are a big part of what makes eBay such an amazingly popular phenomenon.This little company is literally an eBay dream come true. They started small out of their home in Cali
MISTAKE #1: Huge graphic files, along with too many graphics. These are the culprits that slow the downloading of a website. Resize the images and lower the resolutions before uploading to the website. Visitors have no patience for waiting to see your website.
MISTAKE #2: Confusing navigation. If visitors and/or the search engine spiders (that visit and index your website) can’t easily find their way around your website, they will leave as fast as a click of the mouse. I love using roll-over buttons, but also realize that for the spiders I need to post text-based links - usually at the bottom of the pages.
MISTAKE #3: The lack of a unique title for each and every page. I have a search-engine-guru friend who stresses the fact that so many pages lack this important feature. Without a title, your website pages will have little or no chance of showing up in the major search engines. When we include keywords in our titles, we increase our chances of top listings. These are super important because no one will find your website just because you have built it.
MISTAKE #4: The use of “Mystery Meat.” Vincent Flanders and Dean Peters in their Web Pages that Suck books compare websites that are confusing - you don't know what they are about or where they are going - to mystery meat (meat disguised by gravy, etc.). Be obvious - most users are not into guessing what it's all about. They may surmise that we don't know either.
MISTAKE #5: Using Flash Intros for the home or landing pages. Even though these can be quite clever and design-rich, most web-surfers I know and talk with, hate them. They take time to load and often produce confusion and “mystery meat.” It is more expedient to use content that introduces you and/or your website to your visitor.

Being a successful entrepreneur takes tenacity, perseverance, and courage. There is a movie playing in the theaters right now that I believe exemplifies this spirit and should be watched by all inspiring entrepreneurs.The movie 300 tells a great story about the battle at Thermopylae between the Spartans/Greeks and the Persians. While the producers readily admit the movie is not entirely histori

Steps to Business Success Be interested in your product! - When you decide to start your own business, it has been well proven that if you choose something you're interested in or have specialist knowledge of, such as a hobby or interest, you are much more likely to achieve success.

Success means different things to different people. Success can involve personal development or achieving financial security. To others, success can be getting that 'dream job'. To others, an achievement can be related to personal life or family. Success basically means the achievement of something desired, planned, or attempted, and this may be in any aspect of one's life.In spite of the vari

The Internet is a practical and accessible tool to build your brand. Here, we list 5 of the easiest ways to leverage the Internet to your best advantage:1. Own your own domain name.A domain name is the “website address” where your website lives, and it is the last half of your email address. You can purchase your own business name, or a variation of it, as your domain name. The cost

MISTAKE #7: Adding animation for effect. In the beginning, everyone thought this was fun and cute. Maybe for a youngster’s website if used cleverly. But, animation gets old fast. It is like having a blinking neon sign outside your motel room’s window.
MISTAKE #8: Not using alt tags. Alt tags describe your graphics. They are especially for those visitors who have either turned off the graphics or who are using a reader program for the visually or aurally impaired. I find them to also be helpful in describing an object you want your visitors to click on.
If you avoid these eight MISTAKES, you will have a good start to a successful website.
