Present Content First


In my Web Tips Class titled: “Web Site Improvement; 60 Ways in 60 Days”, I actually present about 168 ways to improve your site because I always want to offer “more”. You can also use much of these techniques to improve all types of your Internet activities such as blogs and advertising.

Within this blog I will elaborate on each of these 168 ways and invite you to leave your questions and comments after each post so I can reply either to your comment and/or in a future post! If you’d like to be a part of the Virtual Online Class just visit www.terscott.com/webclass and register for just $49. The class offers the pdf manual, and the tips sheet, plus duration for email access to me for private question and answers. On this page you can also order the tips sheet for only $10; you can use each tip on your own and come to this blog for more about each of the tips. On this page you’ll also see how you can order a 90 Minute (approximate) Audio of a live class for only $19.
However, you'll get tons of great tips right here by visiting this blog often!

Now let’s discuss the first tip: Present your content on your webpage first.

“Content is King” and I will discuss this further in this course/blog. Our goal is to have our sites rank high in the search engines so we want to have good content, refresh it often, have it to be relevant with our site’s topic.

People (in the Western world) read from left to right. Search engine spiders who visit our site (who will hopefully find our site exciting and all the things I’ve mentioned) are emulating people; so they are reading the site from left to right and top to bottom.

Just like in using the inverted pyramid formula in writing a news story or article, we need to put the most important details first in the hierarchy of information.

So to accomplish this task, simply place your content as early as possible at the left and to the top of your site’s page. Robots (in a sense; more on this later) don’t “read” photos etc., so you can have photos and banners there but pay attention to your content and position of the content.

Always experiment; try new things. Have an overall format or structure to your site to keep it uniform and consistent but don’t be afraid to change things within the overall look and design of your site!

Make it a great day!
