Your domain name is the center of your Internet identity. So what type of things should you take into consideration when choosing the name that will represent you on the Web? 562 Graphix Affordable Web Design offers these 8 handy tips.
1. Keep it short
Although some places allow you to register a name with up to 63 characters, you have to keep in mind that people need to be able to remember it, and easily type it into their browser. Try to register the shortest name that your customers and visitors will associate with your Website. The general rule of thumb is, keep it under seven characters if possible. (Not including the suffix.)
2. Dot What?
There are many different extensions available right now. For businesses, we recommend a .com suffix. It is the first extension that most people try when searching for a Website. Also, since it is one of the oldest extensions, .com shows that your business has been around for a while and that you have a well-established presence on the Web. Read full post...

You’ve seen the sites. They start with loader and launch you into a complete sensory experience. Immersive sounds, fancy effects, dazzling animation. You think to yourself, “I wish I had a site like that!”. I’m gonna tell you why you don’t.
The “WOW” Factor
For most people the main reason to go with a Flash website is the WOW factor. You want to show them how fantastic you are by doing all this crazy stuff with your website. The problem is most visitors don’t want to be “wowed”. They’re usually coming to your site with a purpose. Most of the time that’s to find information about a product or service, or to purchase a product. 95% of the time, the wow factor just gets in the way.

Technology Differences
One of the main flaws with building a website in Flash is that you’re relying on a non-standard plug-in. With traditional web design, there’s a very low technical barrier. HTML & CSS is very well understood and widely supported. Read full post...
