web design cheap web hosting discount domain names australia

We discount Linux and Windows hosting in Australia and we discount domain names.

Why do registrars and hosting companies like to sell through resellers? Simply because it's easier for them to collect money through resellers. That's why we can do cheap hosting.

If clients change their email address, the yearly or two-yearly invoice from the registrar may not reach the client who may then lose the domain name through not renewing it on time.

Resellers are always closer to the clients. Registrars and hosting companies may have tens of thousands of accounts and so cannot provide the same personal service.

Website navigation

Easy navigation is essential in a website. Your visitors want to find your information very quickly, or they will give up and fly away. They are usually disappointed if it takes more than two clicks from the home page to find information on your website.

Here's some quick advice:

  1. Navigation menus should not be hard to see on your web page. They should stand out from the body text.
     
  2. Menus can be along the top or down the side. Or they can be both. They should be consistant on every page.
     
  3. Images, Javascript, Flash or plain text are all OK. Avoid images of words in medieval English script — they make slow reading.
     
  4. Plain text organised and styled by css looks as good and loads quicker. The navigation on this page is text and css.
     
  5. Text is read by search engines and text with navigation hyperlinks is treated as important by search engines, so put key search words into the navigation menu.
     
  6. For a large number of website pages, break the navigation into groups and sub-groups, keeping the "two clicks" rule in mind.
     
  7. Large websites justify a search box.
