Okay, you've got your website on the Internet. Now what? Just
because it's there doesn't mean anyone is going to see it. To
get your site seen, you need to get it listed in the Search
Engines.
A Search Engine is the first place someone on the Internet goes
to look for...anything. So how do you get listed in the Search
Engines? First, ask yourself what YOU would type in a browser to
find YOUR website. Do you have an online gift shop? What do you
sell in it? Use those words AND phrases as your ...Read the rest of this entry »

Ultimate Web Designing 07/09/02

I heard Larry Irving speak recently on the "Digital Divide," a
term he coined while working in the Clinton Administration.
Irving makes a compelling case for the inaccessibility of the
web to the poor. He emphatically demonstrates that business is
ignoring a huge market when they ignore those without access to
the web. That means that anyone without a computer right now and
those numbers can reach up to 85% of the poor. That is not just
those who can't afford computers, because many work where ...Read the rest of this entry »

You've a great web site and it's working well. Sales are good,
the site is listed on search engines, and hits are great. What
can you do now? Well you could sit back and do nothing. But just
maybe you might want to expand your potential market. There's a
big world out there and every day of every week, all over the
world, thousands more people get connected to the Internet.
A relatively small effort would allow many of them to buy from
your site.
I live in New Zealand; it's a ...Read the rest of this entry »

File not found - requested URL not found on this server
It's annoying, especially when you've searched for something and
found what looks like the perfect site. At least the description
exactly matches your needs. You click and boom, a 404 error

When I first started job hunting on the Internet, I would spend
countless hours searching for anything and everything. I would
search one site, then jump to another, and search some more. One
of the most frustrating things about job searching on the
Internet is that most of the same job postings are duplicated
across hundreds of job search sites! It's like having three
hundred Houston Chronicles from the same day on your desk!
