effective communicationA smooth experience for the client requires Effective Communication, web designing from a distance through email can cause an irritation for both the client and designer. I hear many complaints from clients who are offering us a project to fix their site after dealing with a designer that lacked effective communication, and slow at finishing the project. I mostly refuse over complicated thesis sites that need the wrench.

What style of communication can you expect from hiring DIY Theme Designer?

Effective Communication is crucial for a web design project to progress smoothly. Without communication on both sides, a web design project can slow down to a crawl.

Using an instant message program can greatly speed up the web design project and provides effective communication. Currently I use Skype or Yahoo Messenger to accomplish design details. No need for video or voice talk, but instant messaging helps with fast transfer of information. If timing to connect is not doable, then comprehensive email lists can also accomplish much.

There are some clients who want to learn how to customize Thesis. I do struggle at teaching web design; yet screen sharing can benefit the client to understand the prime elements of using the Thesis Framework and learning how to blog on WordPress. Screen sharing enhances the ability to show the client certain aspects of WordPress and Thesis. I use a small free program called Join Me, a lightweight program delivers quality screen sharing and is not CPU hungry. Effective communication during a design project increases from using Instant Messaging and Screen Sharing.


Working within a Fair Level:

I strive to work within an area of fairness. Coding and Web Design are not easy work, yet, it is a skilled work. I believe that integrity walks the long distance path. Sometimes it can be difficult to quote prices. I do mostly offer an initial price for the start of a project. I time my work using a program called Vitamin R. The Mac program Vitamin R allows pausing of the timer, it can shut down or hide programs that might cause a distraction. It is an ideal program for web design.

Without indexed in Google, your site will not be moving far into the web world. You want to get your site indexed and start blogging immediately after your site is set up and designed. Web building should be gradual process after the essential layout is designed. After WordPress and Thesis are set up and the settings adjusted correctly, it is important to add needed non-java script plugins that included security, image optimization, database backup, and Google site-maps. Adding three well writing posts according to your niche will help, even if your site is not designed at this point. Your site is not ranked or even indexed in Google within the first month.

We believe in building functional fast websites and blogs at DIY Theme Designer on the Thesis Framework. With the correct tools and, effective communication your experience will be smooth and satisfying.

Web Design can be a daunting project for the novice who has a strong need to blog or to set up a static website. Coding PHP, CSS, and HTML calls for a major learning curve and the reality is that most people are not wired to code. Using the Thesis Theme from DIYThemes.com also challenges many users who are using WordPress because customizations require coding despite what is taught in the sales pitch on DIY Themes. Blogging has become so popular that there are countless varieties of themes available, yet many themes are slow and not SEO friendly.

Shawn of DIY Theme Designer sets up blog sites and static sites so they run fast and are clean. I am against adding java script plugins that will only slow down your site. I get many job requests to fix sites that are running multiple heavy java script plugins. Instead of adding a social share plugin that is built in java script, it is more efficient to use social share links by using php code, text or image links can be added.

I believe in the simplicity of building a blog website. Building a site is progressional, yet many prospective website owners want to build every little-complicated element into their site before they even start blogging. I think this is a complete mistake. I know several people who abandoned their sites because of an over complicated web design. Complicated elements can be added after the foundation of blogging, yet a complicated site will not draw traffic or increase your page rank.
Also, there are many prospective clients who contact me to fix their site because the designer they hired did not understand the Thesis framework and add complicated php unneeded code that slows down the site.

Clean, fast, and non-complicated sites will run dynamic.

effective blog writingBlogs have become very popular over the last five years, and for good reason. Blogs are able to bring advice, tips, and tricks to people who are like minded and interested in similar things as the author and the other readers. Furthermore, most blogs also offer readers the chance to comment on the blog posts. Blogs are also able to bring in a little extra income through advertising. So, with all of the blogs out there, you need to do something to really stand out in order to get readers and people who regularly follow your posts.

You need to have a topic that you want to write about – something that will mean something to your reader, add value to your business by offering sage advice or new information for your existing clients, also a topic that you anticipate will be worthy of people using search engines trying to find useful information about what you have on your mind.

Effective blog writing starts with knowing your audience and targeting a specific group. Say you are a proud parent and want to share your successes, and trials and tribulations, with other proud parents. You need to write in a way that will interest these parents, but also make this blog unique to your own situation. You want to have a blog that these parents can not only relate to, but also get something from. If you only tell of the problems you encounter, nobody will want to read it, unless you also share the solutions you have come to find work for you. You need to imagine not only who you want to attract, but also want you want to get out of the blog and what you want others to get out of it. If you want a blog that really engages your audience, you should ask questions at the end of your posts that the readers can answer.



keywords for your blogAn effective blog offers cutting edge news and information. Say you are interested in a model airplanes. If you want to create a blog about such a hobby, you need to appeal to others who are interested in model airplanes as well. Say there is a model airplane expo coming near you, you should be there and you should be writing as much about it as you can. If you were writing a blog on cycling, for example, you should have information about the newest best thing in cycling. Being on the cutting edge of your topic is key to really getting people to want to visit. If they do not think you have information for them, they are less likely to read your blog. Consider this, most of the time spent “surfing the web” is to answer a question. When people use Google, they are searching for an answer. If your blog is able to provide that answer, you will attract more guests and create a much more effective blog.

Blogging can also be very healthy and a form of expression all individuals

An effective blog uses the knowledge and tools of others. If your blog is about crafts, you would want to have links to other craft blogs and websites that you are partnering with, If they do the same for you, you are increasing your visitors, and also grouping yourself with others who may be recognized as effective blog writers and knowledgeable in the chosen hobby. People love to click things if they think they are going to find something interesting on the other end of the link. Having your website on other people’s blogs and sites is great publicity for you, and by including them on yours, you are increasing your likability with them and encouraging them to do the same for you. Furthermore, if people come to rely on your blog to point them to more about their hobby or interest, they will choose to visit your blog first and make it a habit. Really, writing an effective blog is easy, just make it interesting, appeal to your audience, and always remember the big picture.
