1. Introduction

Before we get down and dirty into the actual construction of your web site, let’s get some things out of the way. I know you want to get this done in ASAP, so I’ll make this as short and sweet as possible.

1.1 #1 Web Design Rule

Designing a web site can be a bit of a headache sometimes, especially if you’re thinking of creating a web site with more than just the 1-5 simple web pages. There is, however, one rule that you should stick to, to make your web building venture as straightforward as possible.

Your aim is to create a professional looking, fast loading web site in, preferably, as little time as possible.

What’s a fast loading web site?

Have you ever been to one of those web sites that seem to take forever to appear? What do you do? Do you sit there and do nothing for a whole minute waiting for the page to take its time loading? Or do you just click away to another site?

If you’re like majority of web surfers, you’d click away. One minute is a long time to wait when you’re on the net.

So put simply, a fast loading web site is one that will fully load into your visitor’s web browser before they have a chance to click away.

And to make sure that your web page is fast loading, you need to make sure that your web page is as simple as it needs to be. You’ll be able to create your web site much faster and without any unnecessary ‘technical’ glitches. With the time you save, you can devote your time to more important things like building traffic to your web site.
