Principles

At the moment, I am conducting analysis of what this site should do for visitors.  There are different prospects and only time will tell when the final product will be selected.  In any case, this site would be something useful for the viewers or visitors.  Thank you for your patience.

Quotes

... grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference.

More than any time in history mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness, the other to total extinction.  Let us pray that we have the wisdom to choose correctly.  -- Woody Allen.

I never teach my pupils.  I only attempt to provide the condition in which they can learn -- Albert Einstein

 

Notifying Visitors of Site Enhancements

Another idea for my home page's text is notifying visitors about the enhancements I put on my site. For example, I want visitors to sign my guestbook or fill out my survey Form E-mailer to answer questions about my site, my business, or my site's topic.

Sites I visit frequently.

Customizing and Personalizing My Site

I might not want a large amount of text on my home page if I want to guide visitors toward my other pages. Instead of text, I can add photos or interesting links. One of the first things I would want to do is choose a template that reflects what my site is all about. Colors and themes are a great way to reinforce the message and purpose of my site.

Behind the Scenes of My Home Page

Even if I don't put much text on my home page, it's a good idea to include hidden tools that will help me promote my site, so people other than my friends and family actually see it. For example, I could add meta tags, which are hidden codes that allow search engines to find my site. I could also install stats and a counter so I know how many people are visiting. If not many are visiting, submitting my site to search engines will guide more traffic to my site.
