Hey, I would love to know some tips on making sites more professional, I mean I know the basics, such as spelling, not using random DHTML ect but I mean wording ect, and layout. Say for a.. search portal? (Not refering to any site, just overall on anything I make)
Make it clean, not cluttered. Layout the text, and setup the site's navigation. Use easy to read fonts and sizes. Then pay and have a graphic designer add their touches to it. Remember the design, is used to support the content and its context... not the other way around. Never over kill with graphics... you make things too busy. We offer graphic design services if you need any. I can post a link to some sample templates if you want.
