Quality Web Design at Atomic Shops.com


The purpose of Quality Web Design is to get a website built by a professional web site designer at a fraction of the cost that one would normally expect to pay and then be able to do the maintenance and make changes as needed without having any knowledge of HTML.

Pros: Most websites are completed within two weeks. There are five pages included in the package.

The subscriber can furnish up to ten photos of his own making or choosing. There are also over 1000 images that are available to be used by the web design team.

The product catalog that can be included in the original website design can include up to five different products and more products can be easily added by the customer later.

Websites are built using host.title technology so they are very easy for the customer to update and expand after the initial 5 page website has been built.

Cons: Quality Web Design would not likely be of any value to those who are HTML proficient and have the ability to build and design their own websites but it would be very valuable to those who are not experienced in web design.

Guarantee: There is no guarantee. There is, however, a free trial that can be used to assess the quality and the acceptability of the work before any payment is made.

Value for money: Quality Web Design is an excellent value for the price that is charged. The same quality would cost as much as $5000 dollars if it were done by a web designer.

Your Business Blog’s Name and URL Matter

If you are blogging and pinging to get a website spidered, the name and address you choose for your blog is not terribly important. However, if you are using your blog as your main site, the name definitely matters – A LOT!

You will want to use keywords for both your title and your address. In fact, here is a little tip: you may eventually want to add Google AdSense to your site so it is better to pick a name that will place the right ads on your site.

Finding the Right Key Words
In order to use keywords for your title and URL, you have to know what they are. Effective keyword research for blogs requires knowing your audience.

Before starting to develop the blog, you need to ask yourself the following questions:

• Who do I expect to read my blog?
• What do I expect them to get from it?
• What are myr audience's "hot-button" keywords?

Answering these questions will help you create your keyword list. In fact, the answer to the last question will certainly provide a few keywords. Finding others is easier than you think. We will discuss two different tools in this section.

The first is Results Generator. Results Generator lets you know what words are being searched for on Overture.com. Start by going to http://www.resultsgenerator.com/overture/.

Next, put your main topic in the GO field and click on GO. In the example, I am looking for key words that have to do with the kidney stone blog.

The left column will show you how much people are paying for different words on Overture.com. Although interesting, this is not as important as what you will find in the right hand column. Here you will see all the related searches done in the past month and the exact words used for that search.
