Web Site Designer Questions
Graphics
We've covered the use of graphics briefly above, emphasising
the importance of using an Alt tag containing the relevant keyword(s). Although
the use of images can be nice and very appealing to a website, it is also important
to bear in mind that they shouldn't overpower the textual content of your page.
As a general rule of thumb it is best to stick to a 70/30 ratio (70 text/30 images).
Web Site Design Tips
Unlimited advertisement
If you ever advertised in a local newspaper, you know the costs. You
are being charged per line, per inch, and per color. On the Web, there is no limit
to how much you can put. You can add pictures, articles, newsletters, rates, product
images and so much more! With just one web site, you can have almost unlimited
advertisement for the same low monthly cost (under $25 a month!)
Improve communications
If you have employees or suppliers, your web site is the best way to communicate
between you and them. Changes take effect as soon as you post them on the Web,
and everyone can see updated information without having to wait for a new database
of products, and without contacting you directly.
