» Graphic design and text content of your website
Once you have set up your hosting package, got your url and have thought about how you are going to tackle the whole process of your site you will be ready to get your textual content and graphics ready for publishing on the net.
Below we have listed some key factors to think about when gathering and writing your content.
You may or may not be aware that the text written on each of your pages has an effect on how you are seen by the search engines as well as the end user. These effects can vary based on how much content you have to how it is worded and layed out.
There are no set rules but be aware that these things can either make or ruin your web site.
» Textual content of web pages
Page Size - A general rule of thumb to aim for with the majority of your content pages is that they have from one hundred to three hundred words per page.
Obviously a contact page or maybe your home page would have much less than this which is why the statement above is only a guide.
Originality - This is the hardest part of getting the content you are happy with it will require a fair amount of time and thought. You will be kidding yourself if you think you can just produce quality content in an afternoon.
The biggest mistake is to think that you can just copy the content from one of your competitors, this is because your competitors are ranked in the search engines where you want to be and copying their content would be very easy to spot as you gain position near them in the search engine, besides this it is also illegal.
Layout - Probably the most important factor in your content is that it is original, easy to read and generally well layed out.
The other mistake commonly made by website owners is to write massive paragraphs with bad punctuation this can cause all kinds of problems with the end user actually understanding and staying interested in your site.
