Mobile Web Design
One basic website per business was more than ample to provide your client base with information, contacts, sales or anything else they might need 10 years ago. Today, in a world where technology has made it possible to surf the net from almost anywhere using devices that fit in a hand, website owners have been forced to reconsider the way their websites are designed. Mobile Web Design allows website owners to create websites, or mirror sites, that are designed specifically for the smaller devices consumers use. From iPad to Smart Phones, everything from orientation to touch screens needs to be considered during the design phase.

Affordable Web Design for Higher Search Engine Rankings
Many people do not stop to consider the importance of web design when it comes to search engine rankings, instead focusing solely on the process of Search Engine Optimization (SEO). The fact is that there can be no “separation” between website design and SEO. The two processes are highly integrated.
Optimum7 includes Conversion Optimization in its definition of SEO. What good is it to get a lot of great, targeted traffic to your site if your site doesn’t actually convert?
Website Redesign
If you have been trying to optimize your website, you have likely spent much of your time researching keywords, participating in forums and building a link list. You may not have stopped to consider your website itself. In reality, website redesign is an integral part of Search Engine Optimization (SEO). It isn’t enough that your site is visually appealing to human visitors. It must also be appealing to search engines. Designing a website that attracts both types of visitors will not only improve your rankings, it will typically make it easier to convert visitors – your real goal.
iPad Friendly Web Design
The recent release of the highly
anticipated iPad may just turn web design on its head. Popular technologies used on many of today’s most visited websites simply aren’t supported by the iPad. At first blush, many may think: “so what?” After all, the iPad is really the first generation of usable tablet design. How big of an impact can it really have?
Pure CSS3 Spiderman Cartoon w/ jQuery and HTML5 – Look Ma, No Flash!
Update: 10/11/2011 New Animation; Making Internet Marketing Fun with Wufoo and CSS3
Dont have CSS3 animation capable browsers? Watch a video of the animation.
Inspiration
Searching YouTube for inspiration I stumbled on to the intro of the classic 1967 spider-man cartoon series. While watching I realized that the animation was very basic. It was the paper doll sort of animation that lends itself perfectly to css3. Hmmm… “I could something like that with a little css3″, I thought.

Interactive Web Design and SEO
Interactive Web Design and SEO must be compatible to work together; otherwise they are mutually exclusive. The best known incompatibility is the use of Flash programming to design a website. Unknowing website owners hire website designers who are not aware or are not concerned with the ultimate objective of almost any commercial website … to make money for the owner. So the best looking website won’t have any business success online if the website is unreadable by the search engines; this renders the website and the online business invisible or as I like to say in “online nuclear winter.” The basic fact is that Flash cannot be read by any of the major search engines. So if your descriptive text, navigation, headers and footers are created within a Flash website, Google will never read it.

SEO Website Design Tips
Websites must be designed with SEO (Search Engine Optimization) in mind. After all, what good is your website if you cannot be easily found online? So, there is no better time to get the onsite optimization correct during the design process. Failure to do this will only cost you time, dollars and tremendous opportunities.
The main design of the website is completely focused on human visitors as it should be. Users respond to many different content elements such as text, video, audio, et al. However, the search engine spiders feed best on textual content. Also, keep in mind that the search engines work by users entering text in the form of a keyword phrase; they don’t upload a picture or a video to the search engines. So search engine technology is primarily text-based.

As an online business grows, so do the preferences of its target audience. Websites need constant adaptability to compete against other businesses, so when a web redesign is in order for your own site, it can initially be an intimidating thought. People are naturally reluctant to change; as such, web designers and users alike face many challenges. Redesign does not necessarily mean tearing down an entire site and starting over, but it does involve a very complex approach that addresses not only the visuals but the textual content of a site as well.
Today, many people are turning to the Internet to investigate medical conditions, read about drug interactions and find a new physician or other medical provider. Many medical professionals wish to take advantage of this opportunity but do not have a website of their own or have a website but lack any particular purpose or strategy for their site. Designing a website can be frustrating and time consuming, especially for those with no knowledge of website design. It is these medical professionals who must turn to medical website design services in order to develop a website that is interactive, state of the art and useful.
Many business owners erroneously believe that optimizing a website to obtain top ranking results with the major search engines is all that is required to ensure successful conversions. While it is true that the number of visitors a website has is often a determining factor in the number of successful conversions, it should not be considered the only factor. In fact, the overall design and layout of a site, as well as its content, plays an even bigger role in converting a visitor. Websites that are cluttered or confusing will often see most visitors leave their site within 10 seconds. Studies show that the typical website has less than 10 seconds to convince a visitor to stay. Obviously, the design of a site is of paramount importance. North Dakota web site design, in particular, involves a series of techniques designed to encourage North Dakota visitors to click through a North Dakota-based site and hopefully to convert.
