With web design tools becoming easier and easier to use,
almost anyone with an idea can create their own website.

guidance miss key elements, which compromise the effectiveness
of their webpage. In order to help understand some of these
mistakes being made by novice designers, we will dissect
the current redesign of and

What is the focus?
This is the most important question to ask yourself before
you begin any project. In the case of www.profitmaker.net,
the main purpose of the site was to promote the client’s
downloadable book. The original design failed to accomplish
this. Not only was the book difficult to find, it wasn’t even
mentioned on the main page! See for yourself:
In order to ensure the downloadable book can be easily accessed
by a visitor, two links were created on the main page to lead
prospects directly to the download page. If the link in the
header doesn’t draw the attention of the prospect, the large
graphic of the book in the center of the page definitely will.
Also, eye-catching text, designed to promote the benefits of
the product, accompanies each link leading to the book’s download
page. This gives the prospect yet another reason to download the book.
