The Tech Crusaders

Welcome Back !!!

Web has become the most popular way of selling anything whether it’s a product or any kind of services. Also it’s one of the fastest and easiest medium to communicating any information to the whole world. So, putting up a website is an obvious choice from people if they want to sell anything or provide information. But if you think that just publishing a website in the web is going to be enough, then you’re absolutely wrong. It’s just the beginning of a long process.

Web designers and developers are just people who design and develop a website. What goes on with the website in the world of internet is none of their concerns; frankly not even in their hands. You website has to compete with millions of other websites of similar niche. Your website has to be convincing enough for people to buy what you are selling. But for that also first of all your website has to attract visitor which is the toughest part of all. For this you need to effectively do the marketing of your website and the product or service that you are selling. Design and look and feel of your website also plays an important role. SEO specialists and Internet strategists spends years seeking the answer to “How to attract traffic” to a site and still it’s a big mystery.

A few days ago I struck upon TheWorkingWeb.com, Internet Strategy Consultant cum Web Architect. They are selling and e-book “Website Development Best Practices” which is said to be the findings of decades of knowledge, efforts and experience. I read about them, went through the bio, checked out their services and resources, found it pretty convincing and I am thinking of purchasing it. The original price for it was $749, but they are offering a special price of $449 for a limited time being and you also get “PHP Coding Standards” as a bonus. If anyone else can suggest me any other best practices in web design related stuffs, then it’ll be highly appreciable. Till my next post, so long.

I browse over the internet quite often. Well, more than just often. I tend to surf more than 12 hrs in a day. I go thru all kinds of web sites and blogs and I bookmark those which I find informative and also those whose designs I find appealing (this helps me out when I design my own sites).

Lately, I landed upon mp3musicringtones.mobi as I was stumbling. Their design was quite tempting. I really liked the color combination and the layout; it was useful at the same time too. I wanted to know who designed the site and check out their other designs too. To my luck there was this footer saying “Web Design / Development & Maintenance by Exclusive Web Limited”. I went thru their site and checked out their other designs in the portfolio section for CoolToon.tv, CanYouTrustThem.com, Helluvit.co.uk, just few designs I liked from their list. Then I thought why not write about this site because it has been useful to be and so can it be to my readers; not in the way it has been to me but can be in a different way though. After all they weren’t just selling web designs; they were selling services and sharing knowledge with their clients which is their motto too. Exclusive Web isn’t some agency that hands over a project to some other company and makes profit as a middleman. It’s a group in itself run by people specialized in IT sectors (Professional web designer and developer). So, if you order a project you talk directly to the people who work on the project. That is one of the advantages over other web designing companies.

Anyways, here are the services it offers:

• Web design (logo design, branding, layout design, photo editing)
• Web development (CMS - content management system, shopping cart, forum, photo gallery, companies directory, social networking etc.)
• Web flash development (video & music player, modern animation, uploading files system etc.)
• SEO (Search Engine Optimization)

Also they have a full package that includes domain name registration, hosting account and email management. So, if anybody not just looking to buy web designs Exclusive Web is the place to go.

Once upon a time, the term web meeting invoked images of jerky video, out-of-sync audio, sky-high prices, and system crashes. Slowly but steadily, however, technology has been improving and prices falling. Then came the terrible events of September, 11. In the months since, technology that links people electronically - for example, collaboration solution or online video conferencing - has been gaining popularity, even among people who were critics just a short time ago.

Viewed in light of workers’ reluctance to travel, such technology seems like the knight on the charging white steed come to rescue companies from the dilemma of how to continue with business, while understanding people’s anxieties. Are we sure technology can rescue us? First, we must know how to use it effectively.

Online collaboration solutions allow your employees, customers, and partners to share critical business information with each other from anywhere in the world. Shared collaboration spaces allow participants to perform online collaboration by working together over the internet, sharing applications and documents and even viewing each others desktops with a full control.

So that’s how it works. The technology that saves the World. The brand-new solutions, which can rescue the tragedy. And when you feel secure, you’re ready to work hard. Now it’s clear, that online video conferencing has brought us to the whole new level of collaboration solutions.
