			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>eCommerce</strong> websites are typically very different from other website designs.   They have but one objective &#8211; to get someone to make an online purchase.  <strong><a title="Carrollton Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com/Carrollton-Web-Design.asp" target="_blank">Carrollton Web Design</a></strong>, a dba of <strong><a title="North Texas Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com" target="_blank">North Texas Web Design</a></strong>, takes into consideration a number of principles when building an eCommerce website.</p>
<p>First, why are eCommerce websites different?  Don&#8217;t they still require simple and intuitive navigation?  Don&#8217;t they need to take into considerations good color combinations, just like any other website?  Don&#8217;t they also need to attractive &#8211; like any other website?</p>
<p><strong><em>Sure they do!</em></strong>  Listed below are some critical elements <strong>Carrollton Web Design</strong> always considers when building any eCommerce website.</p>
<p>An eCommerce website should provide visitors with a pleasant experience during online shopping.</p>
<ul>
<li>An eCommerce website should offer a clear and obvious <strong>Call To Action</strong> for all visitors.</li>
<li>An eCommerce website should be easy to use and provide easy to understand product information.</li>
<li>An eCommerce website should provide sufficient information about who owns the website and why they can be trusted.</li>
<li>An eCommerce website should provide shoppers a clear sense of <strong>Trust and Security</strong> when processing online credit card or PayPal payments</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><em>No &#8211; these principles are not new.  </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Yes &#8211; they&#8217;re more important than ever!</em></strong></p>
<p>A good eCommerce website will lead the shopper to the correct page in one or two clicks at the most.</p>
<p>An effective eCommerce website is also all about the layout. One important aspect is where the shopper&#8217;s eyes go to first.  Most web research indicates the upper left portion of the web page is the most important, followed by the top/middle portion of the page.  By understanding how people look at a web page, your website effectively draws the shopper to the most important part of the web page.  An experienced web designer, like <strong>Carrollton Web Design</strong>, knows how to create an effective eCommerce design following these simple principles.</p>
<p>Lastly, most eCommerce websites have some sort of &#8220;store&#8221;.  At <strong>Carrollton Web Design</strong>, we typically use one of three &#8220;third party&#8221; shopping cart applications.  These shopping cart applications are licensed for use on a specific website for the life of the site.  There are no monthly or annual charges associated with using &#8220;third party&#8221; shopping carts, which over a long period of time can save the website owner lots of money.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking to launch a new eCommerce website, or if you’re old eCommerce website is outdated and in need of a &#8220;new coat of paint&#8221;, please consider <strong><a title="Carollton Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com/Carrollton-Web-Design.asp" target="_blank">Carrollton Web Design</a></strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ll bet that just about everybody has seen the movie <strong>Field of Dreams</strong>, starring Kevin Costner.  In this movie, Ray, an Iowa farmer, hears a voice saying <em>&#8220;build it and they will come&#8221;.</em>  While this made for a very entertaining movie, nothing could be farther from the truth from a web design perspective.  In the five plus years that I&#8217;ve been involved in web design, the rules pertaining to increasing Page Rank and gaining visibility for your website on the first couple of pages with Google (or any other search engine) have changed at least five time.  Sadly, too many of my customers believe all they must do is launch a new website, then watch as it attracts visitors to their new website.  Nothing could be farther from the truth.</p>
<p>At <strong><a title="Dallas Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com/Dallas-Web-Design.asp" target="_blank">Dallas Web Design</a></strong>, a dba of <strong><a title="North Texas Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com" target="_blank">North Texas Web Design</a></strong>, we believe most website owners should consider advanced <strong>Search Engine Marketing (SEM)</strong> once their new website is launched.  However, and unlike many other web design companies, <strong>Dallas Web Design</strong> doesn&#8217;t believe <strong>SEM</strong> should costs thousands of dollars monthly.  Depending on how much time you as the website owner are willing to put into <strong>SEM</strong>, your costs can be as little as a few hundred dollars a month, with strong and proven deliverables provided to you every month, demonstrating how <strong>SEM</strong> is working to promote your website.</p>
<p><strong>Advanced Search Engine Marketing (SEM)</strong> &#8211; Listed below are some of the major elements of <strong>SEM</strong> as offered by <strong>Dallas Web Design</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Complete website analysis, to include:
<ul>
<li>Page analysis</li>
<li>Reputation analysis</li>
<li>Bookmark analysis</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>On-page optimization, to include:
<ul>
<li>Meta tag and ALT tag compliance</li>
<li>Optimized robots.txt</li>
<li>Use of sitemap.xml and ror.xml</li>
<li>Review of h1-h6 tags as it relates to keyword relevance</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Monthly Work Plan, to include:
<ul>
<li>BLOG articles</li>
<li>Weekly Meta-analysis</li>
<li>Checking internal links</li>
<li>Update Page Rank stats</li>
<li>Update BLOG posting</li>
<li>Directory submissions (250-300)</li>
<li>Bookmarking submissions (50-75)</li>
<li>Search engine submissions (50)</li>
<li>BLOG posts (4)</li>
<li>SMO on Twitter, Facebook, Stumbleupon &#8230;</li>
<li>Article submission</li>
<li>3-way link exchange</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>If you&#8217;re interested in advanced <strong>SEM</strong>, <a title="Dallas Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com/Dallas-Web-Design.asp" target="_blank"><strong>Dallas Web Design</strong> </a>will gladly provide you with a detailed plan designed to increase your Page Rank and visibility on the web.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Is your current website out-of-date and/or needs a “new coat of paint”?  Is your current website not producing desired?  Did you know that 40% of all businesses don&#8217;t even have a website (according to Google)?  With Smart Phones, PDA&#8217;s, Notebooks and other similar smart portable devices more commonplace than ever, <strong><em>every business must have a website</em></strong>.  You don&#8217;t agree?  When was the last time you looked at the Yellow Pages?  <strong><em>Point made!</em></strong></p>
<p>Of the 60% of those businesses who do have websites, 75% of them are obviously very old in design style as well as exceptionally poor in quality, with poor navigation, obvious template designs with missing robot instruction and/or way too much Flash (which neither Google or any other Search Engine can read).  In addition, many websites are missing even basic web page optimization.</p>
<p><strong><em>All businesses today must have a well designed and well optimized presence on the web, a website that is designed to have a high trust factor with Google.  </em></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whether you&#8217;re looking for your first website, or you&#8217;ve come to the realization that your current website is either outdated or is not a good reflection of your business, you can trust <strong><a title="North Texas Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">North Texas Web Design</a></strong> with all your web design requirements.  <strong>North Texas Web Design</strong> is located in west Plano and specializes in custom website creation in Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton and Grayson county.  Why is this important?  While we can effectively design websites for anyone, almost all our clients want a &#8220;local web designer&#8221;, someone they know is local; someone they know they can meet with face-to-face whenever<br />
they need.</p>
<p><strong>Understanding the main purpose of a website</strong></p>
<p>In order to build an effective website, you must first understand the business or<br />
organization&#8217;s needs.  Listed below are just a few of the more important questions you should consider:</p>
<ul>
<li>Are you trying to build a brand?</li>
<li>Do your customers ask you for your website, but you don&#8217;t have one?</li>
<li>Or worse yet, your website is not a good reflection of you or your business?</li>
<li>Are you trying to sell a product over the web and you need an eCommerce website?</li>
<li>Or is your main goal simply advertising over the web?</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Selecting a web designer</strong></p>
<p>Once you understand the goals of your website, your next step is probably to find a<br />
professional web designer.  Listed below are some of the more common attributes <strong>North<br />

<li>A passion for providing Great Customer Service</li>
<li>State-of-the-art Search Engine Optimization once your new website is launched</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Create an Attractive Website</strong></p>
<p>Why should a website look attractive?  Why should it look professional?</p>
<ul>
<li>Your website is a reflection of you and your business.</li>
<li>Your website should be easy to understand for visitors.</li>
<li>Your website should offer easy to understand and intuitive page navigation.</li>
</ul>

<ul>

<li>Unique meta tag description limited to no more than 250 words</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Does your website need a do-over?</strong></p>
<p>Many clients who contact <strong><a title="North Texas Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">North Texas Web Design </a></strong>for a re-do of their website do so because of several reasons.  The top three reasons are:</p>
<ol>
<li>They&#8217;re current website is NOT getting the traffic they want</li>
<li>They&#8217;re current website looks OLD compared to many other websites they normally look at</li>
<li>They&#8217;re website simply does NOT project the image they want for their business</li>
</ol>
<p>Listed below are the most common issues we normally see when discussing a website<br />
do-over with a new client :</p>
<ol>
<li>The website is several years old</li>
<li>The website is very narrow in width &#8211; always a good indicator of age</li>
<li>The website is not coded to be compliant with current W3C standards</li>
<li>The website was coded using Microsoft Front Page &#8211; OUCH!</li>
<li>The website was built using one the many &#8220;templates&#8221; advertised on television, which almost always are missing key meta instructions important for Search Engine Optimization (SEO).  These Quick &#8216;n Easy template based websites never produce what a true custom website can produce.</li>
<li>The website is missing necessary and very important elements which make a website conform to the latest W3C standards &#8230; to include elements very important for Search Engine Optimization</li>
<li>The website contains annoying visual elements, to include too much Flash, goofy<br />
image animations, automatic audio scripts that can&#8217;t be turned off, inappropriate font sizes and/or colors that don&#8217;t work with the website</li>
<li>The website navigation is confusing and not at all intuitive for the average user</li>
<li>The website has poorly written content and does not conform to standards<br />
established by the W3C (and more importantly, considered key by Google)</li>
<li>Any combination of the above</li>
</ol>
<p>While <strong>North Texas Web Design</strong> will gladly discuss options to upgrade code to be more current and W3C compliant, more often than not, we find it easier and far less expensive for most clients to simply scratch the old code and just start over.</p>
<p>Whether looking to upgrade the code on your existing website or simply to start over,<br />
there are several key important things to consider when evaluating website design.</p>
<p><strong>Understanding the main purpose of a website</strong></p>
<p>In order to build an effective website, you must first understand the business or<br />
organization&#8217;s needs.  Listed below are just a few of the more important questions you should consider:</p>
<ol>
<li>Are you trying to build a brand?</li>
<li>Are you trying to sell a product over the web?</li>
<li>Is your main goal simply advertising?</li>
<li>Are you attempting to earn affiliate commissions for sales or leads</li>
<li>Is your main objective to provide customer service or support</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Create an Attractive Website</strong></p>
<p>Why should a website look attractive?  Why should it look professional?  Your<br />
website is a reflection of you and your business.  You might compare it to a sign over a<br />
store in a mall.  If the lettering is crude or homemade looking, this may well project a cheap and less than professional business to prospective clients.  <strong>North Texas Web Design</strong> works hard to achieve a clean, attractive and professional web design for all our clients.</p>
<p><strong>Create a Search Engine Friendly Website</strong></p>
<p>There are several key rules to building an effective website that search engines love<br />
to visit and index.  Every page on your website should be optimized for the web, not just the Home page.  Listed below are the key guidelines followed by <strong>North Texas Web Design</strong>.</p>

<li>A quick and effective Call to Action on the Home page</li>
<li>Effective use of keywords and keyword phrases that are aligned with the text in the body of each page.</li>
</ol>
<p>If you are looking to build a new website, or your existing website is in dire need of a major &#8220;do-over&#8221;, we invite you to consider <strong>North Texas Web Design</strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Does your website need a make-over?</strong></p>
<p>Whether you&#8217;re looking for your first website, or you realize your current website is<br />
in need of a significant &#8220;make-over&#8221;, you face several major decisions.  You&#8217;re not in the business, so you don&#8217;t know who to go to.  You want someone local, because the last web designer was in TimBukToo and you could never reach them.  Listed below are the steps considered critical to web design by <strong><a title="North Texas Web Deisgn" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">North Texas Web Design</a></strong>.</p>

<p><strong>Timing</strong></p>
<p>The Fall is a great time of year to review your current website so you can address any changes that are needed prior to the new business year.  Is your current website little more than a template&#8221; based website you saw advertised on television &#8230; and looks it!  When you compare your website to your competition, are you embarrassed? When you go to your website, is website navigation difficult to figureout?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Website owners who want successful websites must:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Take responsibility for their website on a regular basis.</li>
<li>Employ some form of sustained SEO program, AdWords or both.</li>
<li>Since the first two items are typically not something most website owners do easily, establish a relationship with a trusted web design firm that can assist them in meeting their expectations.</li>
</ol>
<p>In the opinion of <strong><a title="McKinney Web Design" href="http://www.mckinney-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">McKinney Web Design</a></strong>, a DBA of <strong>North Texas Web Design</strong>, you cannot simply launch a website, especially one where the website has lots of local competition, and expect to ever be found on the Internet.  If it ever worked this way, it certainly doesn’t anymore.</p>
<p>Websites compete with hundreds of other web based businesses.   Those websites that are successful do so by investing in some form of sustained Local SEO, Advanced SEO, Google AdWords or some combination of these.</p>
<p>These website owners also understand the phenomenon with the Social Media in recent years, e.g., Facebook, Twitter, BLOGs, etc.  Said differently, the value of the Social Media to website relevance has never been greater.</p>
<p>We also believe that all successful websites today have an “Internet presence” on more than just their website; many posts on their Social Media pages weekly if not daily.  Doing so DRIVES business to their website.</p>
<p>Too many website owners just expect their website to produce for them without appropriate attention to their site content and/or the html code used on their website as well as text changes that need to be made periodically due to evolution in web technology.  In the opinion of <strong><a title="McKinney Website Design" href="http://www.mckinney-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">McKinney Web Design</a></strong>, code must be continually updated to stay current with the latest expectations from Google and other Search Engines.  The best example of this occurred when Google changed their algorithm in March, 2011.  Websites that were on previously on page one can’t be found today.  Other websites, once difficult to find, now are on page 1 or 2.  One of the keys to successful websites today involves the “TRUST” factor … something new Google has added to their algorithm.</p>
<p><strong><a title="McKinney Web Design" href="http://www.mckinney-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">McKinney Web Design</a></strong> takes a great deal of pride in striving to stay current with the latest W3C standards.  Every new website we create is fully optimized for the web.  But as noted above, this is not enough anymore.  Successful websites employ one or more of the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Routinely update the text on their websites to keep their website current.</li>
<li>Routinely evaluate their website analytics to see which keyword phrases are working well and which ones are not working at all, then make appropriate changes.</li>
<li>Weekly, if not daily, post to their own BLOG as well as Facebook and/or Twitter (a website owner who does not do this is at a HUGE disadvantage to all those sites who do employ this strategy).</li>
<li>At least a couple of times each month, release “Press Releases” (a cute word for Internet Advertising) with relevant text about their business, specials they may have, products or services they offer, etc.</li>
<li>In addition to Press Releases, successful websites also focus on Article Marketing and Forum Marketing at least monthly.</li>
<li>At least monthly (probably with the help of a SEO firm) posts one-way links to appropriate websites and BLOGS.</li>
<li>Lastly, working with a reputable SEO firm, employ a strategy where they focus on different keywords, either across large geographic area, or in the case of a local business, focus on keywords specific to radius of 5-25 miles from a business.</li>
</ul>
<p>There are many, many more tactics used for successful SEO … the ones above represent just a few of the more important tactics from our perspective.</p>
<p>Regarding Search Engine Optimization, there are unfortunately lots and lots of fraudulent and deceptive SEO companies.  These same firms charge unreasonable amounts, and often are abandoned by clients for their failure to deliver what they promise.</p>
<p><strong><a title="McKinney Website Design" href="http://www.mckinney-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">McKinney Web Design</a></strong> uses state of the art SEO practices at very reasonable prices … typically far below those firms that promise things they can’t ever deliver.</p>
<p>If your website is not producing the results you want, please consider calling <strong><a title="McKinney Web Design" href="http://www.mckinney-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">McKinney Web Design</a></strong>.  We promise to be fair, present you with straightforward answers to your questions, and promise to work closely with you to elevate your website on the Internet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the opinion of <strong><a title="Denton Web Design" href="http://www.denton-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">Denton Web Design,</a> </strong>a DBA of <strong><a title="North Texas Web Design" href="http://www.northtexas-webdesign.com" target="_blank">North Texas Web Design </a></strong>(and we think all reputable web design firms will agree with us on this), you cannot simply launch a website, especially one where the website has lots of local competition, and expect to ever be found on the Internet.  If it ever worked this way, it certainly doesn’t anymore.</p>
<p>Websites are competing with hundreds and hundreds of other web based businesses.   We believe that websites are successful do so by investing in some form of sustained Local  SEO, Advanced SEO, Google AdWords or some combination of these.  These website owners understand the phenomenon with the Social Media in recent years, e.g., Facebook, Twitter, BLOGs, etc.  We also believe that all successful websites today have an “Internet presence” on more than just their website; many posts on their Social Media pages weekly if not daily.  Doing so DRIVES business to their website.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, too many website owners just expect their website to produce for them without appropriate attention to their site content and/or the html code used on their website as well as text changes that need to be made periodically due to evolution in web<br />

<p><strong><a title="Denton Website Design" href="http://www.denton-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">Denton Web Design</a></strong> is proud of the results we bring to our clients.  We stop short of promising a client they will be #1 on Google.  If you stop and think about how many firms promise you to be #1 on Google, this is simply an absurd promise.  Not only this, these same SEO firms charge out the Wazzu.  It is our belief they do this because they know they will not keep clients for long.</p>
<p><strong><a title="Denton Web Design" href="http://www.denton-webdesign.com/" target="_blank">Denton Web Design</a></strong> uses state of the art SEO practices at very reasonable prices … typically far below those firms that promise things they can’t ever deliver.</p>
