Webmasters Excuses 101

Englesos’ BELIEVE IT……OR NOT!

Does size matter?

Probably the most anxiety provoking issue for any webmaster - and a bone of contention among web mistresses too I hear.
Sadly I am here to argue that the answer is yes - it still matters and is likely to matter for quite some time to come.

My Mother Never Had a Website.

It's the one question that sets the average webmaster's teeth on edge - Why do I actually need a website?

It always strikes me as the internet equivalent to "what is one plus one?"  Yes, I do know the answer, but when someone asks you to explain exactly WHY one plus one equals two, then you have to stop and think about it a little more yourself.

Why aren't I rich yet?

A common misapprehension with more than a few clients is that website ownership is a three-stage process.

1. Get a site.

2. Get lots of money from site.

3. Transform your life due to massive cash injection.

Somehow the assumption is "build it and they will come", and in their coming they will bring massive success. Obviously, if this were true then there would be no such thing as a poor webmaster. Trust me on this - there is

Web stats - Where its at!

Web statistics are one of the surest ways of tracking down a poor webmaster – because under no circumstances will that webmaster let you see them.

Where'd he go? I was talking to him...

Many websites give the clearest message to people who view them – and the message is “this site is not for you”.

Are you a Dynamic Kind of Guy?

I have found that there is an increasing fashion in web design - among clients - to seek dynamic solutions to their web design needs.  What does all this mean?

Internet Magic & The Final Reel Solution

It’s pure Hollywood. However bad it gets, you know that before the credits roll someone will fix everything and peace, order and harmony will be restored to the universe – all within the space of the final reel of the movie.

Y'what?

A few useful definitions you wanted to know but were embarrased to ask.

Perfectly Formed?

Recently I have found myself chewing over the pros and cons of on-line forms....

Is your site Infectious?

Viral marketing is defined a little differently by everyone - so now its my turn!
At the end of the day its like this - is your site worth talking about?

SEO - The truth behind the Myths

Obscured by a dense and clinging aura of marketing “hype”, the essentially simple process of search engine optimization is one of the least understood and most exploited facets of the internet

The Deanimator

Evolution or irritation in web design - depending on how you look at it.

Dynamic, Flash, Java or HTML - HELP!

Web technology offers a range of powerful options for you to choose from - galleries, blogs & booking systems, interactivity, audio and animation.

Choosing a website's name and the Horlicks factor.

The name you choose for your company website is something requiring a deal of thought - at least a great deal more than most people seem to spend on the problem.

Read it and Sleep? Writing for advertising and for the Web

This was written for a magazine.....did it really require a different approach or is there no such thing as web writing?

Searching, Sort of Searching and Finding

A Google search for the phrase “Property in Cyprus” at this time yields 2,000,000 hits. A few months ago, it was 1,600,000.
Thus, we deduce (unsurprisingly) property in Cyprus is booming at time of writing, as is the demand for property websites. As a webmaster working in Cyprus – this makes me happy. :-D

Kentucky Fried Syndrome
