their customers about events, news, policy updates, changes in leadership, and other significant
happenings within their organization. In fact, some of that communication has
been made mandatory by law—any publicly traded company, for instance, is required to
provide quarterly financial information. Over the years, marketing and public relations
departments have seen the tremendous benefits of maintaining an open line of communication
with the public. On a basic level, this transparency builds customer trust, which
builds brand loyalty, which can be gasoline for the word-of-mouth marketing fire.For years, many modern businesses have recognized the value of communicating with

visually interesting, than symmetrical balance. Rather than having mirror images on either
side of the layout, asymmetrical balance involves objects of differing size, shape, tone, or
placement. These objects are arranged so that, despite their differences, they equalize the
weight of the page. If you have a large object on one side of a page, and you partner it with
several smaller items on the other side, the composition can still feel balanced.Asymmetrical balance, or informal balance, is a little more abstract, and generally more

Later, it was adopted by Gecko browsers (notably Mozilla and Firefox) and Opera, and standardized by the WHATWG on new proposed specifications for next generation web technologies. Novell manufactures an XForms processor plugin for Internet Explorer, which also provides support for the canvas element. Independent efforts to support the canvas feature on Internet Explorer do not require plugins and are based solely on VML and JavaScript. Google has also begun a project to add canvas abilities to Internet Explorer using the same techniques.It was initially introduced by Apple for use inside their own Mac OS X WebKit component, powering applications like Dashboard widgets and the Safari browser. Later, it was adopted by Gecko browsers (notably Mozilla and Firefox) and Opera, and standardized by the WHATWG on new proposed specifications for next generation web technologies.

For American companies, laws exist that demand certain types of filings with the SEC be made public on a company’s website, so this section may be mandatory. For others, the simple desire to communicate avidly with stakeholders (or future stakeholders if the company is ramping up to go public) drives the need for this section.

But they do not always map to common, real-world scenarios. Designers and developers often find themselves following the spirit of accessibility without adhering to every letter of the law, because at the end of the day, common sense will dictate what is in the best interest of your visitors.
Some Priority Level 3 requirements are as easy and useful to implement as Level 1, just as some Level 1 requirements are nearly impossible to objectively quantify. For instance, checkpoint 14.1, required for Level 1 compliance—“Use the clearest and simplest language appropriate for a site’s content”—is an area where many feel the W3C itself falls short. They might disagree, and how could you argue with them if they did? What quantifiable measuring sticks do web developers have to rate content?
It’s important to dispel the myth that accessible sites must be ugly. Too many designers equate accessibility with all-text documents without visual formatting or decorative images. This could not be further from the truth. Ninety-nine percent of accessibility is achieved within the markup (the one notable exception being accommodating the visually impaired with wise color choices), so even the most beautiful sites can welcome all visitors.
The bolt tightening and pipe cleaning that needs to be done under a corporate website’s hood is usually quite minimal. The value that a few pieces of additional markup brings to the table is enormous. If Target had put just a few extra hours of spit and polish into their HTML, they might have completely avoided a costly and widely publicized lawsuit. The rest of this chapter will explore some tactics for better real-world accessibility—changes that will directly benefit visitors without getting hung up on explicit WCAG compliance.

Many CSS properties, such as margins, depend on length measurements to properly display various page elements. It's no surprise, then, that there are a number of ways to measure length in CSS.
All length units can be expressed as either positive or negative numbers followed by a label (although some properties will accept only positive numbers). You can also use real numbersthat is, numbers with decimal fractions, such as 10.5 or 4.561. All length units are followed by a two-letter abbreviation that represents the actual unit of length being specified, such as in (inches) or pt (points). The only exception to this rule is a length of 0 (zero), which need not be followed by a unit.

http://ooyes.net/cross-browser-indentation-in-listsDesign considerations for contentinfo@ooyes.net (Website design)Some web designers may think they are perfectly justified in glazing over this chapter. It is after all, about content, not design, or even traditional information architecture. But the reality is that the two elements are fundamentally bound, like hydrogen and oxygen atoms in a water molecule. In fact, their symbiosis is driving many designers to become increasingly conscious of web content—what messaging works and what doesn’t, how people react to typography decisions, how people scan content within a page, and so forth. Every day new research offers deeper insight into how the masses interact with content. Those theories and best practices filter down and permeate the decisions driving how interfaces, navigation elements, body text, and more are actually designed.

http://ooyes.net/design-considerations-for-content
http://ooyes.net/design-considerations-for-contentTo be found, you need to say somethinginfo@ooyes.net (Website design)Here’s the reality: people search with words that make sense to them. For most people, that means plain, short, common words, not the oblique marketing speak so prevalent on the Web.
Too many corporate sites (and the technology sector is by far the most consistent offender) feature marketing messages so pregnant with buzzwords, made-up phrases, and convoluted clauses that it’s questionable whether the original writer has any clue what he was trying to communicate.
The company that speaks in everyday vernacular will simply appeal to a wider customer base. For instance, people will not type “integrated premises-based ECM solution” into a search engine. So if your site says that, you are missing a disproportionately large segment of your target audience. Someone might type in “content management for accounts payable.” Maybe. More likely, that person will search for “software to organize invoices,” and then find the company that solves this problem without talking about all of that ECM mumbo jumbo.

http://ooyes.net/to-be-found-you-need-to-say-somethingWebsite platforms info@ooyes.net (Website design)There are numerous platforms on which to develop a corporate website—some are turnkey (meaning that everything works right out of the box), and others are customizable solutions ranging from small, free, and open source to large, expensive, and proprietary. Some websites are built entirely in Flash, others in static HTML, and others in closed platforms like Lotus Notes and Domino.
HTML vs. Flash
Flash has grown from crude animation software to a mature application development environment. Many design agencies specialize in Flash websites, and their creations are often rich interactive experiences built to wow the audience. While it is possible to build a corporate website entirely in Flash, there are several key disadvantages to the platform: There are numerous platforms on which to develop a corporate website—some are turnkey (meaning that everything works right out of the box), and others are customizable solutions ranging from small, free, and open source to large, expensive, and proprietary.

Redesigning can be a major undertaking. Depending on the magnitude, it can be as challenging as a brand new design. But listing the reasons for the revamp and the goals the site will accomplish, and then selling the whole idea to your management team, can help make your site better than ever.
It can be assumed that any business that wishes to compete in the globalized world market has a website. The medium has been mature for over a decade. College dorm startups, old-world companies (think Ford or Coca-Cola), small businesses, and worldwide mega-corporations have all benefited from and praised the return on investment that a strong Internet presence brings.

Block-level elements generate a rectangular box that is part of the document's flow, and inline-level boxes cause the creation of one or more line boxes that are flowed within their parent element.There are four types of positioning: static, relative, absolute, fixed.

In sports, there are three facets to every successful team: offense, defense, and coaching. The most effective websites have a similar three-pronged approach: marketing to new customers (offense), supporting existing customers (defense), and providing general corporate information that supports the other two (coaching). Let’s examine these three key tiers more closely. Traditionally, corporate websites have been offensive, built to sell. But offense is not enough.

http://ooyes.net/what-your-website-should-doSEO tacticsinfo@ooyes.net (Website design)Once the optimization strategy is defined, it’s a matter of tactical execution. In SEO, there are many, many things that can be done to support the campaign, from internal content tweaking to external link building to continued keyword research and competitive analysis. Successful campaigns are a blend of these channels—relying on any single device is like driving an 18-wheel truck on only one tire.
Methods for SEO can be placed into one of two broad categories: SEO-specific tweaks made to the website itself (internal), and tactics outside the domain (external). Beyond that, it’s just a cycle of research, strategy evaluation, and campaign monitoring to ensure the effort is actually driving desired marketing results, not just upping the number of visitors.Once the optimization strategy is defined, it’s a matter of tactical e
