Forget the music.
   Unless you’re with a band or iTunes, people are not coming to your website to hear music. If you must play something, make sure that there is a volume control and an OFF button.

Forget the ads.
   Unless they are really necessary for your business. People did not come to your site to be sold something else. Hopefully people came here to use your site, and maybe do a little business with you.

Forget the blinking and rotating glitz.
   Unless you want your visitors to be distracted. Aren’t they here to get some info about your company? Use the unusual sparingly and for a specific purpose.

Forget the fancy fonts and wild colors.
    Sure it’s pretty, but can the visitor find what they need? Black backgrounds are cool on a music website, but just don't work when you use a lot of text.

Forget the bells and whistles.
    Don’t be talked into spending a fortune on new technology that will be costly and hard to edit. Stick with what works, clients will trust your website and therefore you if your site shows a solid face to the world.

If you sell towels include not only towels in your keyword list, but add washing-up and drying and bathrooms and kitchens. Add linen and cotton and fluffy to the list too. Why? SImple, your visitors who use search engines might just browse your site if it pops up during a search. One more visitor might just mean more sales, and that, after all is said and done, is the whole idea.
