HTML5 video is set to become the next standard for displaying videos on the web and naturally, you should offer both a way in which users can stream your content through an HTML5 format as well as another format such as flash for those who have an older browser version.

Do some keyword research. While your main focus should always be on providing your customer with relevant and current information, you first need to work on gaining a customer base.

Learn the basics of HTML and CSS. Although there are many templates that allow you to just fill in the blanks, in order to create a web page, these templates provide only limited design possibilities.

When designing your website, you should utilize cascading style sheets, or CSS. These style sheets can be applied to every webpage on your website, and will ensure that the user experience is consistent throughout the website. They are also effective for making quick design changes to your website due to the fact that you only need to change the style sheet as opposed to making alterations on every webpage.

Organize your links and avoid putting too many links in one area of your site. Doing this can confuse visitors and make them leave your site. Emulate the "blogrolls" seen in many blogs and tuck them away in a column on the right side of the page if you do have many low- to mid-importance links.

Make sure everything is easy to locate on your website. Spend some serious thought on how everything on your site will be laid out. When content is randomly thrown on your site with little thought to the layout, you are making things harder for the people whose use of your site ensures your online success - your site visitors.

Having a website counter at the bottom of your page is really an unattractive feature. While you might think that it's adding something to your site, it's really something that your visitors don't want to see. Do away with that visitor counter and rely on other means to tell you how many people are stopping by.

You need to find out exactly how things look in all browsers and then code in a way that leaves your site looking the same on every popular browser.
