In my last post, Search Engines and SEO, I discussed how search engines crawl, index and serve results to end users as it relates to SEO. With this information you now know that search engines must find and crawl your website in order for your site to rank for specific keywords.
However, how do you ensure search engines find your website if it’s new? As you can imagine it’s awful hard to rank high within search engine results pages if the search engines never find you to begin with. The good news is that there are a number of things you can do to make sure that search engines find your website. Let’s take a look at three of the most common ways to ensure your site is discovered.
So you are in the process of learning CSS and you have come across two fundamental CSS properties for keeping space between box elements, CSS margins and CSS padding. They sound like they accomplish the exact same thing so what’s the difference? Are they interchangeable? Should you use one or the other?
Content is one of the most valuable things you can focus on during development of your website. Consider each page of your website an opportunity to capture or lose your audience. If a web page has paragraph after paragraph of text, many visitors won’t bother to begin reading.
Rounded corners are quite common these days across lots of websites. They are definitely appealing and help change it up from the normal square boxes a browser renders by default.
Arguably one of the most important elements with regard to web design is navigation usability. Recognizing this, a great deal of consideration should be put into making sure your website is easy to navigate. After all, if your customers cannot easily navigate your site and find what they are looking for you will risk losing potential new customers and in turn revenue. Can you afford this?
Most designers are just as particular about the way their code looks as they are about the way their page looks. Good thing Dreamweaver offers a tremendous degree of control toward shaping your code just the way you like it.
Looking for a simple date stamp? Use Dreamweaver’s Date object from the Insert bar’s Common category.
When developing websites it’s always helpful to add content to your design so you can see how a site will look as a finished product. To accommodate for this there are many free lorem ipsum generators available, which simply create fake text for use in filling the content areas of your website. This is particularly useful when you demo a website you are working on to a client.
