Rather than having the default error page come up when a visitor types the address improperly, a custom error default page allows the visitor to continue navigation within your website instead of having them continue to the next site in search results.  This may aid your website visitors by giving them the option to continue on to other sections of your website instead of continuing on to another site indexed in search results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A custom 404 error default page can have the same look as the other pages of your website to keep visitors from exiting right away.  By using a custom error default page that has the same links across the top, your visitor can continue naviation within your website.  It's always better to have one more potential customer staying on your small business website instead of losing them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By making a custom 404 error default page you'll increase stickiness, aid potential customers in navigation on your website on improper links, and hold the interest of your visitor with your own custom website page.  This can keep small business website owners from losing visitors, and turn them into potential customers instead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://coderepair.com/errordefault" rel="tag"&gt;See My Custom 404 Error Default Page&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/business+website" rel="tag"&gt;business website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/custom" rel="tag"&gt;custom&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/custom+404" rel="tag"&gt;custom 404&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/custom+404+error+default+page" rel="tag"&gt;custom 404 error default page&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/default+page" rel="tag"&gt;default page&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/error+default+page" rel="tag"&gt;error default page&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/error+default" rel="tag"&gt;error default&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/potential+customer" rel="tag"&gt;potential customer&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/small+business" rel="tag"&gt;small business&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/small+business+website" rel="tag"&gt;small business website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website" rel="tag"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-7731968367357409532?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/7731968367357409532/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=7731968367357409532' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7731968367357409532'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7731968367357409532'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/11/benefits-of-using-custom-404-error.html' title='Benefits of Using a Custom 404 Error Default Page'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-4709774401646731310</id><published>2009-11-05T13:05:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-05T13:05:00.368-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='websites'/><title type='text'>Color Reference Tools for Website Design</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/color-finder.html"&gt;Color reference tools for website design&lt;/a&gt; can be useful to come up with color schemes for a website, names for hexadecimal values and vice versa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finding out HTML color values in hexadecimal notation, putting together color themes and identifying color names is necessary for coming up with website templates.

You can spend less for a website, but you need the engine to drive a &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/obtaining-winning-website.html"&gt;Winning Website&lt;/a&gt; and get to &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/how-i-hit-google-page-one-in-two-months.html"&gt;Google Page One&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Custom small business CMS website design is all about giving the customer the ability to add pages in plain text, translated into perfect XHTML without code errors, and invest time instead of money hiring a website designer to add, edit or delete pages.  By letting  Coderepair handle your website design, you'll find you're getting a website worth $5,000 to $10,000 for a fraction of the cost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Related Blog Posts I've Written on Custom CMS Website Design:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/ideas-for-creating-sticky-website.html"&gt;Ideas for Creating a Sticky Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/02/website-design-quality-vs-cost.html"&gt;Website Design Quality vs. Cost&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/02/comparison-of-static-and-dynamic-sites.html"&gt;Comparison of Static and Dynamic Sites&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/03/small-business-website-home-page-advice.html"&gt;Small Business Website Home Page Advice&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/obtaining-winning-website.html"&gt;Obtaining a Winning Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/how-i-hit-google-page-one-in-two-months.html"&gt;How I Hit Google Page One in Two Months&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/05/7-best-website-optimization-techniques.html"&gt;The 7 Best Website Optimization Techniques&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/05/advantages-of-cms-in-website-design.html"&gt;Advantages of CMS In Website Design&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/08/custom-cms-website-design-advantages.html"&gt;Custom CMS Website Design Advantages&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/custom" rel="tag"&gt;custom&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/business" rel="tag"&gt;business&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/cms" rel="tag"&gt;cms&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/design" rel="tag"&gt;design&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/perfect+xhtml" rel="tag"&gt;perfect xhtml&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/small+business" rel="tag"&gt;small business&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website" rel="tag"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website+design" rel="tag"&gt;website+design&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website+designer" rel="tag"&gt;website designer&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website+design+service" rel="tag"&gt;website design service&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-7895580497189362545?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/7895580497189362545/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=7895580497189362545' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7895580497189362545'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7895580497189362545'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/11/custom-small-business-cms-website.html' title='Custom Small Business CMS Website Design'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-6962044851100136166</id><published>2009-10-30T13:00:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-30T14:03:03.858-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reviews'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blog'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><title type='text'>Wordpress Advantages Over Blogger</title><content type='html'>Wordpress has advantages over Blogger for a variety of reasons.  Doing a conversion from Blogger to Wordpress may be tedious depending on how many posts need to be converted, but it just may be worth the work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Blogger, should your account accidentally get wiped out there is no way to recover it.  The database to recreate those pages is gone even if you publish posts to your own site because it lives on Blogger's servers and you'll have to recreate the content manually.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When it comes to administration and customization, WordPress offers a lot more flexibility over Blogger.  Wordpress supports open source modification of the core files, categories instead of labels, and Wordpress plugins for even more features. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another key advantage of Wordpress is the ability to have categories, the same way you have labels in Blogger.  This way you can sort your blog posts efficiently and organize them by topic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Should you consider keeping your blog for the long term, Wordpress is a better choice, and since Wordpress is hosted on your own account, you regulate your growth and expansion over time.  Sure, Blogger is much easier to use, but it's good to learn how to use Wordpress to it's full potential.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Read my blog post on:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/blogger-to-wordpress-blog-conversion.html"&gt;Blogger to Wordpress Blog Conversion&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href="http://jackmasterson.com/"&gt;Jackmasterson.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/blog" rel="tag"&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/blogger" rel="tag"&gt;blogger&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/conversion" rel="tag"&gt;conversion&lt;/a&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/wordpress" rel="tag"&gt;wordpress&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-6962044851100136166?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/6962044851100136166/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=6962044851100136166' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/6962044851100136166'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/6962044851100136166'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/wordpress-advantages-over-blogger.html' title='Wordpress Advantages Over Blogger'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-3901393478586221933</id><published>2009-10-28T00:03:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-28T01:31:21.720-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><title type='text'>Turn Pictures Into Artwork</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/uploaded_images/Rog-758808.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 140px;" src="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/uploaded_images/Rog-758804.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Turn pictures into artwork at &lt;a href="http://www.befunky.com/index.php"&gt;Befunky.com&lt;/a&gt; for interesting effects to your photos.

The &lt;a href="http://www.jackmasterson.com/blog/"&gt;general contractor matching WordPress blog&lt;/a&gt; has been converted and launched.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;During evaluation of the blog content it was decided to enhance the seo, or search engine optimization, of all the posts going back two years. Post headlines, URLs, and on page content was changed to improve the seo value. To maintain rank value of these aged pages, custom 301 redirects were included in the htaccess file to forward external links pointing to old file names to the new file names created in the redesign. In addition to posts, labels became categories, plus archive file names all required redirects to maintain the existing seo value, as well.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Moving the existing blog to WordPress provides ease of use and near perfect xhtml code quality, plus optional plugins that were easy to install for added functions of social bookmarks, seo automation, and automatic database backup operation. While Blogger is fine, and my choice for a blog platform, WordPress is considered superior especially for site owners without advanced technical skills.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Related Posts:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/custom-cms-website-conversion-of.html"&gt;Custom CMS Website Conversion of Masterson Construction&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/06/custom-cms-website-conversion-of.html"&gt;Custom CMS Website Conversion of CodeRepair&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/07/florida-aluminum-awnings-website-launch.html"&gt;Florida Aluminum Awnings Website Launch&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/07/custom-cms-design-llc-family-sites.html"&gt;Custom CMS Design LLC Family Sites&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/custom-cms-redesign-project-launch.html"&gt;Custom CMS Redesign Project Launch&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/blog" rel="tag"&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/blogger" rel="tag"&gt;blogger&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/design" rel="tag"&gt;design&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/wordpress" rel="tag"&gt;wordpress&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/conversion" rel="tag"&gt;conversion&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/web+design" rel="tag"&gt;web design&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/news" rel="tag"&gt;news&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/launch" rel="tag"&gt;launch&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-7980356902275753741?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/7980356902275753741/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=7980356902275753741' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7980356902275753741'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7980356902275753741'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/blogger-to-wordpress-blog-conversion.html' title='Blogger to WordPress Blog Conversion'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-9182377827783752486</id><published>2009-10-20T02:51:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-20T20:09:57.525-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reviews'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='promotion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='news'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><title type='text'>Custom CMS Web Design Budget Tips</title><content type='html'>This recent article written by expert author Jim Degerstrom on a wide variety of &lt;a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?id=3019071"&gt;Custom CMS Web Design Budget Tips &lt;/a&gt;could come in useful to have a great functional website and feel good about the price you paid for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some excerpts from Jim's recently published article:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Budget funds for as much quality as you can afford for the initial development and launch of your custom CMS web design."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Evaluate your options for a source to create the custom CMS web design based on their quality and experience."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Plan to add original quality content often to your new custom CMS web design to attract repeat visitors."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finding the right website designer to handle your project for your small business may not be as easy as it sounds.

Jack Masterson wanted a well-designed layout with quality search engine optimization to attract visitor traffic.  My intent is to eventually redesign the blog as well to match the "new look".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Masterson Construction is a licensed general contractor in California for residential and commercial construction, remodeling, and additions.  The conversion of Masterson Construction has recently been completed from static pages to a custom CMS content management system design. &lt;a href="http://www.jackmasterson.com"&gt;Www.JackMasterson.com&lt;/a&gt; has been optimized for better search engine optimization by concentrating on how the competition hit google page one and focusing on what people search for to find this business niche.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Success online depends on a growing website. The benefit of having a custom CMS website design is that you can add content to your website without paying your designer for each revision. This allows Jack to upgrade his website constantly by investing time instead of money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;High quality similar to the revised design is what you can expect from CodeRepair.

Google search functions give your visitor the ability to find exactly what they are looking for on your website without being discouraged by having to hunt for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adding a Google searchbox to your website can make it easier to navigate your small business website.  Visitors will tend to stay longer on your site if they can find what they are looking for easily.  Adding a Google searchbox is as easy as copying and pasting the code into your HTML.  If you don't feel comfortable with doing it yourself, just have your webdesigner do this for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By adding a Google search function to your website, visitors may stay longer, therefore giving you a better chance of turning them into potential customers, and perhaps even clients.  Adding a Google searchbox may be the touch your website needs to keep the traffic that lands on your website coming back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let your users search your website with &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/sitesearch/"&gt;Google Site Search&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Add a &lt;a href="http://coderepair.com/google-maps.html"&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt; to your business&lt;br /&gt;Learn how to &lt;a href="http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_can_i_add_a_google_search_box_to_my_web_site.html"&gt;Add a Google Searchbox &lt;/a&gt;to your website&lt;br /&gt;More about &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/google-searchbox.html"&gt;Adding a Google Searchbox to Your Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also read my blog post on &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/site-maps-for-your-website.html"&gt;Site Maps for Your Website&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/add-google-map-to-your-website.html"&gt;Add a Google Map To Your Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/google+search" rel="tag"&gt;google search&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/google+searchbox" rel="tag"&gt;google searchbox&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/searchbox" rel="tag"&gt;searchbox&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/search+function" rel="tag"&gt;search function&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website" rel="tag"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-8185883478044412411?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/8185883478044412411/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=8185883478044412411' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/8185883478044412411'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/8185883478044412411'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/adding-google-search-function-to-your.html' title='Add a Google Search Function to Your Website'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-5876884611547273985</id><published>2009-10-04T16:41:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-20T20:08:42.246-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reviews'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='news'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><title type='text'>Protect Your Computer With Antivirus</title><content type='html'>Protecting your computer with an antivirus program is extremely important ot insure the security of your system.  Choosing an antivirus which is both safe and secure isn't always easy.  Many antivirus programs are actually &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/what-is-adware.html"&gt;adware&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/what-is-malware.html"&gt;malware&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/what-is-spyware.html"&gt;spyware&lt;/a&gt; which can be more harmful to your computer than good.  Many antivirus programs force you to purchase their complete package in order to continue using their software, and make it difficult to be deleted off of your system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My choice for computer protection is a free download from &lt;a href="http://www.rising-global.com/Download/Home-Home-Office/Rising-Internet-Security-2009.html"&gt;Rising Antivirus&lt;/a&gt;. It’s important to choose an antivirus which is both safe and secure. Many antivirus programs out there are adware, malware or spyware and may force you to purchase the complete package in order to continue using their software. Rising Antivirus is a free download which is adware-free, malware-free, and spyware free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can protect your computer with this free download from Rising Antivirus and keep your computer safe from threats. I’ve been using it for a while and have been very happy with the protection Rising has given my computer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.rising-global.com/Download/Home-Home-Office/Rising-Internet-Security-2009.html"&gt;Download Rising Antivirus here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://coderepair.com/antivirus.html"&gt;Read more about Rising Antivirus&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Review these useful &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/computer-maintenance.html"&gt;Computer Maintenance Tools&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/virustotal.html"&gt;Use VirusTotal to Analyze Suspicious Files&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/registry-cleaner.html"&gt;AML Free Registry Cleaner&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/keylogger-detector.html"&gt;Anti-Spyware Keylogger Detector&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/antivirus" rel="tag"&gt;antivirus&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/rising+antivirus" rel="tag"&gt;rising antivirus&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-5876884611547273985?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/5876884611547273985/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=5876884611547273985' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/5876884611547273985'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/5876884611547273985'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/protect-your-computer-with-antivirus.html' title='Protect Your Computer With Antivirus'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-2162342008263868644</id><published>2009-10-03T05:47:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-03T05:47:00.597-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='launch'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='blog'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='promotion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='websites'/><title type='text'>Announcing New Website Design Launches</title><content type='html'>By announcing new website design launches or projects for your small business, you can drive more traffic to your website.  This approach could get you more customers because another post adds one more page you can be indexed by search engines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every time I launch a new website I announce it on my small business website blog in order to advertise what projects have been recently completed.  The advantage is that people either in that business or looking for related topics may land on my website and see what I can do for them.  In some rare cases I've found my site even ranked higher for a post I've written than the website I designed for my customer.  My post then links to the customer that it was originally written to promote.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By announcing new projects for your small business website, you can promote yourself more, get more visitors to your website and eventually turn those visitors into paying customers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blog Post Launch Announcements:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/custom-cms-redesign-project-launch.html"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Custom CMS Redesign Project Launch-CDA Alliance&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/07/florida-aluminum-awnings-website-launch.html"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Florida Aluminum Awnings Website Launch-Haggetts Aluminum&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/07/custom-cms-design-llc-family-sites.html"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Custom CMS Design LLC Family Sites&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/announcing+new+website" rel="tag"&gt;announcing new website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/new+website" rel="tag"&gt;new website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/small+business" rel="tag"&gt;small business&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/small+business+website" rel="tag"&gt;small business website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website+design" rel="tag"&gt;website design&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website+design+launch" rel="tag"&gt;website design launch&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-2162342008263868644?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/2162342008263868644/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=2162342008263868644' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/2162342008263868644'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/2162342008263868644'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/announcing-new-website-design-launches.html' title='Announcing New Website Design Launches'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-7070093221109059365</id><published>2009-09-30T05:22:00.009-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-20T05:35:16.733-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='promotion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='design'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><title type='text'>Add a Google Map To Your Website</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/uploaded_images/ScreenHunter_15-Sep.-28-17.24-745763.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 135px;" src="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/uploaded_images/ScreenHunter_15-Sep.-28-17.24-745734.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Add a &lt;a href="http://maps.google.com/"&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt; to your small business website when you want your website visitors to be able to easily locate your business.  Adding a Google map can have great benefits to your customers for your small business website because you will be easliy found when one of your website visitors wants to visit for your products or services.  Not only can Google Maps give your potential customer a map of your business location, but you can show what the outside of your business looks like, aiding your customer in what to look for when they arrive in your area.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Besides adding contact information such as email, phone number and address, sometimes adding a Google Map to your website may be to the advantage to your small business website if your business depends on physical contact with your customers.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adding a Google Map is easy to do.  Simply find a map that pinpoints your business location and surrounding roads, then click on "link" for that specific Google Map.  Then copy and paste it into your website to show your customer how to physically arrive at your business.  &lt;a href="http://maps.google.com/"&gt;Google Maps&lt;/a&gt; can make it easy for your customers to find your small business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let your users search your website with &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/sitesearch/"&gt;Google Site Search&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Add a &lt;a href="http://coderepair.com/google-maps.html"&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt; to your business&lt;br /&gt;Learn how to &lt;a href="http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_can_i_add_a_google_search_box_to_my_web_site.html"&gt;Add a Google Searchbox &lt;/a&gt;to your website&lt;br /&gt;More about &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/google-searchbox.html"&gt;Adding a Google Searchbox to Your Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also read my blog post on &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/04/site-maps-for-your-website.html"&gt;Site Maps for Your Website&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/10/adding-google-search-function-to-your.html"&gt;Add a Google Search Function to Your Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/business+website" rel="tag"&gt;business website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/customer" rel="tag"&gt;customer&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/google+map" rel="tag"&gt;google map&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/map" rel="tag"&gt;map&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/small+business" rel="tag"&gt;small business&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/small+business+website" rel="tag"&gt;small business website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website" rel="tag"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-7070093221109059365?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/7070093221109059365/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=7070093221109059365' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7070093221109059365'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/7070093221109059365'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/add-google-map-to-your-website.html' title='Add a Google Map To Your Website'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-6992013320463403141</id><published>2009-09-24T16:40:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-24T16:40:00.384-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='promotion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><title type='text'>Ideas for Creating a Sticky Website</title><content type='html'>Some ideas for creating a sticky website can be useful to turn visitors into customers.  In order to get people to stay on your website longer, I've compiled this list of tips to make your website hold the interest of your visitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Add a Message Board&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A message board for customers to share ideas, questions and experiences on your products and services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Audio and Video&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Audio and video make your website interesting and interactive.  Use a common plug-in, standard on most computers, so your visitor doesn't have to download an additional one to view your audio and video.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Change your site frequently&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Update your website with new and unique content to hold the interest of your audience.  Making bi-weekly or weekly updates gives your visitors a reason to return for new information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Checking Online Inventory&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order for customers to check if products are in stock, adding a database could be a good idea.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Don't Clutter&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's important to give your website an uncluttered and unique design.  Keep your website looking clean and organized so your visitors feel that your business follows the same standards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Don't Spam&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sending unrequested mass emails to those that do not know the sender is spamming.  Only send solicited emails that were requested from filling out a form on your website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Interactive Websites&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Add interesting pages to keep the visitor engaged to your website and keep them coming back.  Color choosing pages for products and other interactive pages make the visit more interesting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Keep it Simple&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't use useless graphics that will just lengthen loading time for your visitor.  Animated graphics and personal pictures don't usually present a professional first impression.  Also, keep content suitably categorized into smaller paragraphs rather than huge chunks of written material.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;META Tags&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;META tags are a list of keywords visitors might type in a search engine to look for information.  Using proper META Tags is important for your website to be found by people on the internet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Online forms&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For ordering products and services, give visitors the option to fill out a form and order online.  Payment options such as credit card or paypal could also be an option by setting up a secured website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Provide a Newsletter&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allow your visitors to sign up for a newsletter to inform them about upcoming event, special sales and changes to your website.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Small Image Sizes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Smaller graphics will load faster and keep your website visitors from leaving. Potential customers won't always have the patience to wait for images to load.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Target Your Audience&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Realize who your customers are and who you are trying to reach.

Typically the presence of spyware is hidden from the user, secretly installed on the computer. However, sometimes spywares such as keyloggers may be installed by corporate, shared or public computers on purpose to monitor any activities online.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The functions of spyware extend well beyond simple monitoring of a computer by collecting personal information such as sites visited and surfing habits. Spyware is known to change computer settings and cause slow connection speeds, change in home pages and loss of internet or program functionality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Running anti-spyware software has become increasingly popular practice for computer security users with Microsoft Windows. Many jurisdictions have passed anti-spyware laws to protect internet users to lower the risk of infection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand what spyware is to give you insight on how it can be dangerous to your computer. If you download a file and your computer suspects it to be spyware, the best choice is always to refuse the file.

Shareware is often offered by download on the internet or as a CD included with a magazine or newspaper. The aim of shareware is to offer a program to potential buyers and judge how useful it is before purchase of the full version.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shareware usually is offered as a trial version with limited features, or as the full version for a trial period. The program may stop running after the trial period until the full program or the license is purchased. Shareware usually is offered without updates, support or help menus, and the terms "trial version" or "free trial" are an indication you have shareware.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The term shareware is used in contrast to retail software and &lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/what-is-freeware.html"&gt;freeware&lt;/a&gt;. Retail software refers to commercial software available by purchase of a license and may not be copied for others, public domain software, referring to software not copyright protected. Freeware refers to copyrighted software that the author solicits no payment for, although donations may be requested. Understand what shareware is to give you insight on what the term refers to.

Malware includes a variety of intrusive, hostile or annoying software or program code. The common term "computer virus" is used as a phrase to include all types of malware, also including actual viruses. Malware is different from defective software which has an actual legitimate purpose but just contains bugs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Software is considered malware because of the malicious intent of the creator, not just particular features. Malware, sometimes known as a computer contaminant, can contain worms, spyware, trojan horses, computer viruses, rootkits, crimeware, dishonest adware and other unwanted malicious software. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand what malware is to give you insight on how it can be dangerous to your computer.

Freeware is not the same as "free software" in the way that free software can be studied, used and modified without any restrictions.

When potential customers have an existing website created by another company, I like to see whether it was put in the customer's registration information or if it's being withheld by the company they had make the site for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whois.com can be used to find out:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;•The Registrant-the person owning the website&lt;br /&gt;•The company the website is registered through&lt;br /&gt;•Domain Servers in listed order&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many companies who create websites don't give control to the owner for the website, so then the customer becomes obligated to pay the monthly fee that the company charges.  This doesn't let the so-called "owner" have control of the website, and they end up having to pay for changes each time.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The difference with my system is that when I make a website for you, the registration becomes yours, so you own it.  And even better, with a CMS (Content Management System) you can add and change content without paying a web designer each time you want edits done.  Investing time instead of money is a great advantage of Content Management.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Useful Resources:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/website-outlook.html"&gt;Find the Value of a Website With Website Outlook&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/website-grader.html"&gt;Analyze a Website With Website Grader&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Other Website Evaluation sites:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://directory.sootle.com/website-worth/"&gt;Sootle Directory&lt;/a&gt; for checking a website's value&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Written Posts:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/03/review-of-website-grader.html"&gt;Review of Website Grader&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/find-value-of-your-website.html"&gt;Find the Value of Your Website&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/08/custom-cms-website-design-advantages.html"&gt;Custom CMS Website Design Advantages&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/content+management" rel="tag"&gt;content management&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/registration" rel="tag"&gt;registration&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/website" rel="tag"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/whois" rel="tag"&gt;whois&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-6581023655071722945?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/6581023655071722945/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=6581023655071722945' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/6581023655071722945'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/6581023655071722945'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/09/analyze-website-info-with-who-is.html' title='Analyze Website Info With &quot;Who Is&quot;'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6451541905019344744.post-724807979822659695</id><published>2009-09-07T07:27:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-26T11:13:31.264-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='promotion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='websites'/><title type='text'>Website Advertising to Attract Customers</title><content type='html'>When you advertise your website, you'll find more people will find you, giving you more potential customers for your small business.  Sometimes small business owners will launch a site and forget that putting it on their printed material and company vehicle is necessary to attract business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you get a new website, the address needs to be added to business cards, printed material and perhaps even on company vehiicles.

Simple code graphics or file errors can be detrimental to a properly running website design.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One single incorrect character in code can cause validation errors, and even one pixel can throw off a well-planned layout.  Attention to detail is undoubtedly not to be taken lightly because it can be the deciding factor in a webdesign and can make or break a project.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spelling and gramatical errors in a website can ruin a perfectly laid out design, and make even the best structured layouts seem amateurish.  Without paying close attention to detail, files will not be found properly upon website launch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paying attention to details for your webdesign project will play a vital role in getting the attention you need to be indexed by search engines and respected by your visitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tags: &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/design" rel="tag"&gt;design&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/detail" rel="tag"&gt;detail&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/webdesign" rel="tag"&gt;webdesign&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Get tips and advice for small business custom or standard website designs including blogs, cms, or e-commerce.&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6451541905019344744-6995793716189402266?l=www.coderepair.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/6995793716189402266/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6451541905019344744&amp;postID=6995793716189402266' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/6995793716189402266'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6451541905019344744/posts/default/6995793716189402266'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.coderepair.com/blog/2009/08/importance-of-detail-in-webdesign.html' title='Importance of Detail in Webdesign'/><author><name>Roger Degerstrom</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14612752897751278136</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='09129480382268641942'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
