Rating 4.00 out of 5

from cyberdesignz.com

  1. Know the purpose and goals of a website before starting to design, perhaps the audience.
  2. Plan the website layout according to the client’s perspective and interaction.
  3. Choose colors and color combination very carefully, go for browser safe colors.
  4. Keep the font style and size consistent throughout the website, maintain typography.
  5. Keep navigation and menu structure simple and clear, properly organized with sub-menus if any.
  6. Websites main header is the first impression, so make it stand out. Speak a bit louder.
  7. Divide content into sections and paragraphs using headings and bullets. This increases the content’s readability and impression.
  8. Use interesting images that compliment the website and integrate with its whole theme. Induce call to action.
  9. Each page of the website should have appropriate title and Meta tags to help rank well in search engines.
  10. Search box option is a must to help user find relevant information on the website.

IE7 is no longer the most used Browser

Rating 4.00 out of 5

Great news, according to StatCounter’s numbers , IE7 is no longer the most used browser. The initial numbers are deceiving as they show all versions of IE (IE6 though to IE8. If you choose the Browser Versions stats you can see that FF3.5 has bypassed IE7. CSS programmers will surely utter a sigh of relief world wide, finally they are able to use standard W3C approved CSS on sites, without having to worry about the majority of users seeing their creations through MS eyes. Another (overdue) nail in the Microsoft coffin?

Say hello to Wibiya

Rating 4.00 out of 5

After a little trial of the ShareThis feature here on linkbizkits.com we now switched to something entirely new, and improved. And I find that the site is well worth checking out too. Let me introduce the Wibiya Toolbar
wibiya

from wibyia.com

Wibiya enables blogs to integrate the most exciting services, applications and widgets of their choice into their blog through customized web-based toolbars.
Our platform offers a one-stop solution for integrating, managing and tracking third-party applications.

Currently we offer a fixed set of tools such as creating a blog community via facebook connect,
enabling twitter alerts on your blog and enabling post navigation but there is a lot to wait for as we will be adding more and more application through time.
