Will You Add? - Web Design for the Professional Magician Part I - Selecting the Perfect Domain Name
Alternate medicine finds its own place in the hearts and minds worldwide and has a separate following to back its existence. There are many subcategories that could be added to the modern and alternate medicine website directories. Although the list below is not exhaustive it is a good start. After looking at multiple directories in the web that just places everything into one big category “health related websites”. I thought it’s time to present some categories in this vibrant segment of the web; there are lot’s of websites in this category which need a separate home in the directories. Even in the High PR and traffic rich directories finding the right websites
This example shows another common strategy. Magicians will use a less common extension such as .org , .biz or .tv. It is my belief that a weaker name with ".com" is better than a stronger name without the ".com". Most people don't understand about domain names. The general sentiment among your potential clients is that .com appears more professional than .biz.

Pros
The age old question, you want to start a business but have little capital available. So how do you do it?First of all have a look round for sources of borrowing money. The first obvious step is your bank. They are unlikely to lend money unless you have at least a deposit of 20%. Similarly if you approach the Small Business Bureau and ask for a guaranteed loan – they are probably going to want a similar deposit.They may be able to offer you some advice though. Your best bet is to get together a realistic business plan with what you wish to do and what it will cost in quite detailed format. Also include details of whom you expect your market to
The first issue I have with magician web sites is the improper use of domain names. Examine the following list of URLs and select the most professional one:
- www.freewebspace.com/users/losers/reallosers/Hire-me.html (Example 1)
- http://www.Kooool-Magic-2day4U2.tv/ (Example 2)
- http://www.WebToastyHosty.com/234asdkjfd/No-hire-me.html (Example 3)
- http://www.TikiMagic.com (Example 4)
Unfortunately the first site is too common today. It is too long to be remembered. It is also too long to be accurately typed. Who knows what site your potential visitor may end up loading into their browser. More importantly it is unprofessional. With the low cost to register domain names and host web sites, there is no longer any reason to use this type of web site as a professional magician.
These URLs are usually found on business cards with perforations around the edges. If this applies to you, then please listen to this simple advice. Please spend the small amount of money it takes to look like a professional or don't pretend that you are one. Your potential clients are not impressed. They will not hire you. This advice applies to both the web sites and the business cards. Let's review the pros and cons.

Pros
- It's free
- It's free because your visitors are bombarded with ads (Viva Cialis)
- It's unprofessional. You look cheap because you are. Don't Be!
- It's too loooooooooooooooooooong.
- It too hard to type out without mistkes.
- Too many limits on designs and script usage.
Example 2
The second example shows another trend. The good domains are often taken. Magicians look to claim some Web real estate by getting a domain name with cute names by substituting numbers or misspellings to find a "suitable" domain name. The main issue is that potential visitors may not remember your "cute" name and never find your site. It is better than the first URL, but not much.
This example shows another common strategy. Magicians will use a less common extension such as .org , .biz or .tv. It is my belief that a weaker name with ".com" is better than a stronger name without the ".com". Most people don't understand about domain names. The general sentiment among your potential clients is that .com appears more professional than .biz.

When was the last time you did not pass a certain interview? Have you tried recalling what you told the interviewer that made him give you thumbs down? For job hunters, do you usually prepare what to answer for the undying questions that these companies ask their applicants?Let me give you an overview of my experience as an Interviewer. In 2002 until 2005, I worked as a Human Resources Assistant for a Networking Company where I handled both the Recruitment and the Benefits and Compensations of over a hundred employees. It is not easy being the Interviewer as well as being the Interviewee.Whenever I interview applicants, I use different approaches site is too common today. It is too long to be remembered.

Pros
While there are a lot of areas in a restaurant business which needed scrutinizing, there are areas of primary concern that an owner or manager should always look after. The good service, food and affordability are just one of the few restaurant concerns.Nobody really knows what are going to be the major changes that await restaurant owners and restaurant businesses but the trends with food are certain to grow and improve and even evolve in the next coming years.Today, there are about 4 out of 10 restaurant diners each day. That means; more and more people find it easier, comfortable and fast to dine at restaurants at least once a day. Because of thi this simple advice.

Pros
Like any business, a home business needs to be nurtured in order for it to be successful. You can't just sit back and hope that it is going to take care of itself, and that the single action of having a website and submitting it to search engines to allow potential customers to find it is going to do the trick. No matter what you may have been told, there is no business that is going to make money for you without you having to do some work to make it happen. Yes, they teach you about residual income in network marketing, but even that residual income in based upon hours, months, and possibly years of very hard work promoting, training, advertising, and learning il. You look cheap because you are. Don't Be!

Pros
A very wise Winston Churchill is renown for having stated: "I am going to give a long speech as I have not had time to write a short one." I often find it far harder to create a simple and intuitive website than to develop a complex, cutting-edge one. Think about the last time you purchased anything on the internet. What was the site? Why did you buy there, and not somewhere else? Chances are that you purchased online because it was simpler and more convenient, otherwise you would have taken the effort to drive down to your local shopping mall and buy your item of interest there. In order for your business to be successful online, your website needs three things,your "cute" name and never find your site. It is better than the first URL, but not much.

Pros
- It's slightly better than the prior example
- It contains some keywords (mostly misspelled and numberized)
- It's your own domain name
- Doesn't use .com
- Words are misspelled
- Numbers are substituted for words
- It uses too many hyphens
- Too long
- More cute than professional
Example 3
The third example shows the use of a web host without a domain name. With your own host you will have maximum flexibility over web design. The ability to use server side scripting and databases make this a good approach. The main problem is that without the domain name it still looks unprofessional. Even with the great looking web pages, it still appears to be DIY (do it yourself). A weak domain name is better than no domain name.

Pros
- Full control over design
- Can use server side scripting languages
- Can use databases to dynamically create web pages
Cons
- Lacks your own domain name
- Looks unprofessional
- Hard to remember
- No keywords in URL
- URL has no tie to your USP (unique selling proposition)
Example 4
The final example is the best of the lot. The domain name ends in .com. It also has the keyword 'magic' in it. It is reasonably short and memorable. It doesn't have any misspellings, hyphens or number4word substitutions. The "tiki" is part of the magician's character concept and is utilized in other marketing efforts. It helps differentiate him from other magicians. The web site is a retro sixties tiki lounge approach. Very unique and very cool. :) We will examine this site in more detail in later articles dealing with effective web promotional strategies.

Pros
- Professional looking URL
- Domain name uses keywords
- Domain name uses USPs
- Easy to remember
- Full control over design
- Can use server side scripting languages
- Can use da
