|
According to research done by Elizabeth Sproles and George Sproles (1990) in the Journal of Consumer Affairs, there is a significant link between peoples learning styles and their “consumer styles”.

How "Available" are YOU?
By Anna-Marie Stewart Venton
The internet can be pretty scary at times. Do you realise how easy it is to access your personal information? Your phone number, name, address? Even get driving instructions on how to get to your location (if you`re in the USA)??
Did you know that www.google.com works as a telephone directory?? If you`re in the USA, anybody can find you through their search engine. If you`ve got an unlisted number, this won`t apply to you:
Go type your phone number into the search box in this format 555 444 1212

| Article Title :: What Makes A Great Online Ad? |

| Trying to sell your product or service online differs from allother forms of advertising, and very few people seem to realizethat this is completely different from all other traditionalforms of advertising. Print media allows the use of attentiongetting graphics.

| Article Title :: Banner Ads Don't Work, But Non-Banners Do! |
| |
| Make your banner look like text on a page. This is what I call a "non-banner" (close to "no-brainer"). If your banner looks like a banner, it gets ignored. Conventional banner ads only pull less than three percent on average. Why is that? It's because we have learned to ignore advertising.

Something that doesn't appear to be a sales pitch will receivemore attention. Intelligent surfers are looking for information. They want to find out about something and be told h (read full article) |

Designing your own web site is important but we all know that it is the Text that sells not the graphics or fancy scripts.
