imageSome general tips

  • Don't make the Home Page link active on the home page!

  • Avoid "click here". . . Use a more descriptive phrase (More about Hamlet)

  • Put full contact information on every page

  • Don't assume that users will scroll to the bottom of the page unless it's clear there's something there. Only about 10% of users will scroll automatically.
    • Put a table of contents at the top to jump to particular parts of the page (plays, for example)
  • Make sure you get details from your ISP about who visits the site, how long they stay on the different pages, and where they are from.

  • Use "meta-tags" to assist search engines in finding and categorizing your page
    • <META NAME="Keywords" content="Web design, theatre, theater, Shakespeare">

Red check marks highlight points that will be of interest to established sites as well as new ones.
