Good Web Design Hasn’t Changed That Much
There are many things about designing web sites that have changed from the beginning of cyber time and many things that haven’t. I try to point out a well done site every week in my Favorite Site Design category. The truth is that while the look of well done websites has gotten cleaner, easier to […]
Google Is Getting Better At Reading Flash
I probably will still advise not using Flash for making the navigation for your pages, but Google is starting to look at your Flash pages with new eyes. They still probably won’t see your site like your human visitors do, but it looks like things are getting better for them being able to know what’s […]
Make Your Page Titles Outstanding!
I know that I could write better titles for these posts. When I scan through my past postings I know it right away. What I usually do when I write my posts is to write the title first and then start on the post. Sometimes I change the title later, but not very often. Then […]
The Right Way To Use Social Media

Good Deals On Pay Per Click Ads
I was reading an article from the Wall Street Journal on line the other day and it was about how you can find hidden deals on Ebay by searching for misspelled words. The idea being that if you searched for items that were listed, but misspelled that there would be fewer buyers looking for that […]
