How can search engine optimization help my site?


How can search engine optimization help my site?
Also known as SEO can help your site in many ways! All website design companies should be optimizing your website at least to make to SEO friendly; in our experience and knowledge this basic Search Engine Optimising should be included in the fee for your website design.
However! Most companies don’t do this! They want you to pay for any small change in to make it SEO friendly and rank higher in Google, Bing, Yahoo and other search engines! This is a very costs procedure as many others charge from $1,000- $10,000 per month! Don’t get into this poor circle, always remember to ask your website design company if they make it basic for Search engines! If not I would recommend moving on to another website design company even if it costs you’re a little bit more.
Back to the main topic of, if search engine optimization can help my site, YES it can. This is a factor of creating your website in order for the search engine to be able to index it or not.
Indexing is getting ‘listed’ in the search engine. An un-indexed site isn’t able to be seen in the search engine.
The more pages your website has, the ways you can be found in the search engine. For example, if your website is 150 pages and 80 pages are indexed, well then there are 70 pages waiting to get indexed or was rejected by the search engine/s. visit our seo designed websites
One way you can speed up the way to get more pages indexed faster is by being more active your website, as in update your content on your page or using a Sitemap so that when a Search Engine Spider is viewing your website, it reads the Sitemap file and it sees all the pages your website has, and Cross checks it with what it can access to see if it all works.
If success then the search engine recommends your site if it was successful then the search engine won’t be too happy when it comes back to check back next time!
Keeping a website design simple may looks great and works perfectly fine, but the search engine may not like it!
As a web designer, we like to design great looking websites especially ones that meet search engine requirements, that is what we do at our website design company.

How to add a shopping cart to your website?


How to add a shopping cart to your website?

This can be simply done with a drag and drop method. All it takes is 3 simple methods.

1. You will need a Shopping Cart. There are many shopping carts out there.
Just go to your favourite search engine, hit in “free ecommerce shopping cart software
Just save the folder onto the desktop. 

2. Now that we have a Shopping Cart, We need a Host. The Host is where, your shopping cart or your website will be viewed?
There a Free hosting available out there, so go back to your favourite search engine, hit in “free website hosting”, make an account and remember those details, or write them down to a file.

3. Now that we have a free hosting account, we need a FTP (File Transfer Protocol), this is a program to connect to your hosting account. Now again head back to your most trusted search engine, key in “FTP”, download a version that’s suitable for your computer. Once installed, open the program. It will write (usually at the top), host, username, password, port.
Now go back to where your hosting details are, and type in as follows, host, username, password and the port you don’t have to worry about usually, but the default number is 21 or 22.

Now if you haven’t connected, then retry the host, username, password and post. If you keep getting nothing or an error, contact your host.

It you’re connected (CONGRATS! Well done! Don’t worry, you’re nearly finished!) Once connected, usually there are 2 square boxes! On the left box are the files that are on your computer and on the right box are the file in your web hosting account for your website.
There will already be a list of files in your web hosting account. All you have to do is look for a folder called. “public_html”, this folder is the root location for your website. 

Drag and Drop your shopping cart files into this folder, it may take long depending on how many files your shopping cart has.
Wait for it to finish and once done, visit your URL of your web hosting, and it should come up as a install.
Follow the prompts and youll have a shopping cart online!

How to create a website?


How to create a website?

In order to create a website, you need to know what a website is made out of. To do this. 

If you’re using Internet Explorer, right click on the background (preferably where there’s no text or images) and select “View Source”. You can also do this by Click “view” on the top toolbar and clicking “Source”, either way it gets to the same spot.

If you’re using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, right click on the background (preferably where there’s no text or images) and select “View Source”. Otherwise you can hit “Ctrl” + “U”. This is a shortcut to view the code.

Now that you have the website code up in front of you, it may look like a bunch random characters, you may understand some words if not none.
Most of the code you will see is called a HTML (Hyper Text Mark-Up Language). Websites are mainly coded in this but there are many other web programming languages. You can learn HTML from W3Schools.

To make a website look stylish and easy-to-use, it takes time and effort but also knowledge and experience. So be patience if you’re looking to get become a Web Designer!
