We know everything, don’t we – those of us who have been in this game for years – then you discover you don’t.  Sometimes that discovery makes you feel a fool, sometimes it gives you great joy – that was what happened to me today.   Most people probably know about this – but I didn’t, [...]

Traffic is the biggest issue for any webmaster  – how to get it, how to keep it, how to increase it and any other relevant ‘how to’ you can think of.  As more and more ways of digesting information on the internet are presented to people, keeping up with them becomes more and more of [...]

Johnson Boxes and How To Make Them

February 23, 2010

Johnson Boxes are one of those things that everyone refers to and assumes that everyone knows all about them and how to do them – but in my experience they don’t.

Busy Busy…

August 25, 2008

I’ve spent the last couple of days grappling with a whole new set of skills.  I build websites, it’s what I do and how I make a living.  Anything I can do to make it easier, provided it’s ethically acceptable, is of benefit.  As I have said before I will spend money to save time [...]

The Cost of ‘Free’

June 3, 2008

‘Free’ is a somewhat emotive word on the internet – we all seek the ‘free’ information that will give us the key to success, we look for the ‘free’ tools that make our job easier, we mutter when we discover that something that purports to be ‘free’ actually ends up costing us – even if [...]

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

January 31, 2008

Illustrating your website or blog is always a thorny issue. Do you, don’t you, how many, what, where are just some of the questions that spring to mind. I don’t use a huge number of images on my blog because it’s not always appropriate, but I do use them on websites and lenses. They make [...]
