©2005 Start your year off with a professional bang by sprucing up your web site! More than ever before, potential clients and buyers who hit upon your web site judge it in the exact same way that they would judge your product or service. Does your web page pass muster? Unless it underscores your credibility, you may be losing business before they even call you for a consultation or email you about an order. Tip #1: No flash allowed That's right, no splash page, no flash, and nothing that moves. Yes, it's fun to play with all the Internet toys, but viewers are looking for information, and the more gimmicks you have, the less credibility you appear to offer. Tip #2 No long blocks of text Customers who surf the web "skim" rather than "read" -- usability studies have proven that three lines of text work best. Separate long paragraphs by bolded sub heads, and leave plenty of white space. Tip #3 Email links should link to a bio, not an email address Two reasons exist for the above statement. First, if a customer prints out your page they will only see the appearance of a hyper linked name. If they want to get hold of you, how will they reach you? Second, it's become the convention in the Internet world that hyper linked names lead to one's bio. Tip #4 List your privacy issue We all know we are credible and would never sell names - but how does a casual visitor to your site? Spell out what you will do with the names (i.e. used only to send them the newsletter or ezine) and if you would ever sell or rent your list to others. Tip # Realize that colors have a psychological value - choose carefully! Color has a tremendous psychological value. Blue inspires trustworthiness. Red can incite agitation or passion. Too many colors can tire the eye. When you have perfected your site, check for spelling, outdated links, and then get someone to preview it and share their thoughts. Ask them to be honest. After all, it took tremendous energy to get traffic to your site - you want to keep them coming back for more! You have just read "Top 10 Tips For Effective Web Sites" © Copyright Marisa D'Vari.
