Webpage/Design tips of the month

TIP 1 - Is Your Email reaching your website visitors/subscribers?

We all know that Spam is a huge problem, and its only going to get worse. However, ongoing communication is critical for building a longterm relationship with your present and future customers/clients.

Do you know whether or not your email newsletter or other important emails sent to your subscribers or customers is actually getting to their Inbox?

SpamCheck ensures that this vital connection happens on a regular basis -- no more hit and miss! And best of all, its 100% free!

Here's how to check your ezine or other messages RIGHT NOW, FREE!...

1) Paste your e-zine into the body of a new e-mail.

2) Type in the word TEST (capital letters, no quotes) at the beginning of the subject line, before the title of your e-zine.

For example...

Subject: TEST Petunias in the Yukon Monthly E-zine

(The word TEST is critical -- without it, we simply assume your mailing is spam, and delete it outright).

3) Send the e-mail to...

spamcheck-pinsoft@sitesell.net

Within a few seconds (minutes if volume is heavy), you'll receive a report with your score and a brief description of the "triggers." Then it's just a matter of tweaking your choice of words until you obtain a lower, acceptable score. Depending upon your writing style, it may take you a few attempts.

SpamCheck is an awesome free service. It uses Spam Assassin software, which is really strict, so if you're approved by SpamCheck your email should stay out of junk folders.

A bonus - this service teaches you how to write to avoid filters.




TIP 2 - How to accept orders from your website

Well, this year is just about over and a new one is about to begin.

Have you thought about starting your own Internet business? One that produces a couple $100's month to pay the bills and perhaps a vacation?

The first thing you need to do is be able to accept credit cards online. The fact is more than 95% of Internet purchases are made using a credit card. This is vital to the success of any Internet business.

The question I get asked most often is: How do I get setup to accept credit card payments over the Internet? Where do I go?

Today its easier than ever to start to get started.....check out the two sites below:

http://www.paypal.com

http://www.2checkout.com

With either service you could start selling products off your website within 24 hours of signing up.



HTML Code Of The Month

Note: Copy and paste the HTML code into Web Page Teacher to see how it works and what it can do for you. Create a web page with Web Page Teacher (Click here to download)

Cascading Style Sheets

The FONT tag is used to display your text in a specific style. Using fonts within a table requires you to add the FONT tag to each individual cell. This technique will cause your page to be larger than necessary.

By using Cascading Style Sheets, you can, not only save yourself a lot of time, but keep your page size down.
