- Going Interactive: Website
"Contact Us" Forms by Steve Watkins
" Communication. It's the essence of the Internet,
and the whole reason it exists in the first place. By publishing your
website you are communicating to your visitors the ideas and
information on it. The natural progression of this concept is allowing
your visitors to communicate back. Generally this is done over email,
or by providing a phone number for them to contact you. There is a
better way. Forms."
- Allowing easier website
maintenance with a structured page naming style by Steve Watkins

developing your site is vital. Ignore them now and it will cost you in
maintenance time later."

is, how to create it, and how it can bring more repeat visitors to your
site. As well, by creating one you will remove those pesky errors that
may appear in your logs. Pretty impressive for a five-minute tutorial."
- Using a robots.txt file to control
which pages are seen by search engines by David Fitzgerald
" As mentioned in previous articles, search engines
can be a great source of traffic to a standard business or personal
website. What would happen though, if you didn't want to appear in
them?"

10 ranking. The advice I provide here consists of general tips that

choosing the right web developer by Steve Watkins

how you operate. There is simply no "cookie-cutter" solution that will
do you justice."
- Best methods for promoting
your site online by Rebecca Case
"The advantage in doing online promotion is that
visitors are already sitting at their computers, ready to visit within
seconds. It is far easier to convince people to visit your site when
they are already online."
- Best methods for
promoting your site offline by Rebecca Case
"Most businesses create sites to compliment
existing promotions for their products or services. Their target market
is already established offline, and further branding and efficiency are
major goals for this captive audience."
- Improving usability with
customised error pages by David Fitzgerald
" There are a few major things wrong with the
standard error page. It doesn't really tell your visitor what went
wrong. They usually don't understand what the error is. It doesn't
match the rest of your site. It's ugly. It doesn't let the visitor go
back to where they were, or continue on to try and find the right page.
"
- Reducing page size for
happier visitors by Steve Watkins
"For each second after those times, you can expect
to lose at least 5% of your visitors (who are potentially paying
customers). That's a pretty heavy price to pay if you are two or three
seconds slow."
