Website experience

By focusing on the visitors experience, web designers can make sure the visitor searches and navigates the site to find the aspects of the organization that interest that visitor the most.  If your organization helps different organizations fight for their rights, it would be good to separate parts of your site that address issues that differ from hunting activist rights vs. animal activist rights.

Expanding the image of the organization and reaching more prospects can be part of the webs design.  Having content that peaks the interest of the visitor enough to have the visitor return will generate more opportunity to receive donations.  Keeping the site up to date and reaching back out to the visitors can keep the visitor in touch with the topic and keep them emotionally involved.

Take advantage of your domain name

Seems pretty simple but advertising the domain name might be able to do more for your business than advertising the phone number or address. If you have a vehicle with your company name on the vehicle, make sure you have the domain name too.  Your domain is part of your business branding, and part of your marketing strategy should include getting it out there for everyone to see.

  • Use your domain name e mail.  ie. mark@wewebbuild.com
  • Vehicle decals
  • Phone book listings
  • Business cards
  • All signage

What is HTML

HTML (hypertext markup language) originator Tim Berners-Lee developed further upon SGML, making electronic document input language easier to learn and more developer friendly.  HTML uses tags to provide formatting that web browsers or web client software understands. The first standards for HTML were established in 1991 and today we are in the middle of the emerging HTML 5 version.

HTML developers write tags like <h1>header size</h1> to identify certain aspects of the document layout.  These tags create a layout for the content of the document, including images, tables, paragraphs, backgrounds and much more.  There are also tags called meta tags which help search engines identify the content on a particular page.  HTML developers create and edit layouts and upload the files to a server which gives access to the document to the clients which it serves including the Internet.
