Designing the Navigation System -- Most of the people coming to your
site are looking for content. Most of the time a search engine will delivered them to one of your web pages. It is very important
to make the content they are looking for as easy as possible to find.
Search Engines and Directories -- Most of the visitors to many of our web sites arrive by way of the search
engines (perhaps 80% even 90%). For that reason it is important to understand how search engines work. Making your site navigable
by the search engine robots should be a very important priority as you set out to design your navigation system.
Cleaning Up Broken Links -- Often enough links don't work because they
were not wired up correctly in the first place. New sites get hosted, old sites die off or simply become stale and need to be
weeded out. Link checking tools are available at no cost and need to be used on a routine basis to help clean out the inevitable
link rot that accumulates.
Mouseovers -- Bill Aumack's newsletter comments that rollovers are a
frequently asked topic of other webmasters. Rollovers (some call them mouseovers)
are what happens when you move your mouse over an image (or hyper text) and the image changes.
