Philippa Gamse writes: "Your Website visitor reports are a goldmine of information. If you don't review these on a regular basis, you can't fully evaluate the return on your Web investment. And, you could miss critical clues as to how user-friendly your site is, how effectively your message reaches your visitors, and what unmet needs they may have.

Philippa Gamse writes: "Understanding your Web site’s traffic patterns is a crucial component of your marketing mix. The information in these logs is collected as visitors find and move around your site at their own volition. So, it’s “market research that cannot lie” - and therefore provides unprecedented insights that can help you to strategize not only for the future development of the site itself, but also for your overall business and marketing plan.

Angela Booth writes: "During 2003, a Web site stopped being an optional extra for all creatives, including writers. It's now the expected thing. If I read a book by a writer I've never heard of, I'm not only disappointed if I find that she does'n have a Web site, I feel it also puts her credibility in question. Publishers are well aware of this expectation. Although publishing houses haven't been on the cutting edge of technology, they now all provide Web space for their authors. They know that readers expect and want to get in touch."

Kevin Nunley writes: "If you're going to have a website, you have to have content. Content is a word with a broad meaning, encompassing everything you publish on your website. Sounds pretty important, doesn't it? It is more than important; it is vital. And yet, content has found itself pushed to the back of the line behind technology and design."

Philip Naudus writes: "The Internet gives us a two-way portal to the world. Unfortunately, most of us only use the Internet in one direction (i.e. receiving information). Many people never take advantage of the full potential the Internet gives - some don't even know what they are missing. Yet, we can never maximize the usefulness of the Internet until we take advantage of both sides of the spectrum and join the vast network of people who supply information as well. "

When you begin the design of your web site, one of the first things you need to do is decide on a color scheme. Although choosing colors seems like a relatively easy proposition, it’s not easy at all. In fact, it’s hard."

I can’t even begin to tell you how many times I’ve heard the statement, “I get tons of traffic, but no sales.” It’s normally followed by comments like: “My site is highly optimized for the engines and my rankings are great. I don’t understand why no one is buying.” Let me shed some light on this mystery. "

Mama didn't raise no dummies, so when by some fortuitous stroke of good luck the article "Increase Your Traffic by Recovering Your Lost Visitors," written by Shelley Lowery, appeared in the May 12 issue of SitePro News, this ol' mon jumped on it like a cat on a mouse. "

Mario Sanchez writes: "Heavy graphics cost you money and traffic. They cost you money because heavy graphics require both significant storage space and bandwidth. Since your web host will usually give you a limited amount of storage space and a maximum data transfer allowance, heavy graphics can cause you to exceed those limits, in which case you'll have to pay extra."

From the moment a visitor arrives, your front page conveys a feeling to your visitor. From the look of your site, the wording, and the colors you use, your home page projects a message to your potential customer about who you are. First impressions are lasting. It's very important for your site to project an image of professionalism and invite the visitor to want to know more by gaining the reader's attention, capturing their interest, creating desire, and calling them to action.

If you sell a product online, there’s a good chance that you have a sales letter for it. Hopefully you’ve got a great headline that grabs people’s attention and then sales copy that states the benefits of your product and is designed to convert visitors to customers. There is a good chance that you have an affiliate program for your product and you may even have organized some joint ventures to promote it."
