Website Tactics
1.
2. A website is a set of related web pages typically served from a single web domain.
âą A website is a collection of Web pages, images, videos or other digital assets that
is hosted on one or more web servers, usually accessible via the internet.
âą The pages of a website can usually be accessed from a common root URL called
the homepage and usually reside on the same physical server.
âą The URLs of the pages organize them into a hierarchy, although the hyperlinks
between them control how the reader perceives the overall structure and how the
traffic flows between the different parts of the site.
3. A web page is a resource of information that is suitable for the World Wide Web
and can be accessed through a web browser.
âą This information is usually in HTML or XHTML format and may provide
navigation to other web pages via hypertext links.
âą Wed Pages may be retrieved from a local computer or from a remote web server.
The web server may restrict access only to a private network, e.g. a corporate
intranet or it may publish pages on the World Wide Web.
âą Web pages are requested and served from web servers using Hypertext Transfer
Protocol (HTTP).
âą Web pages may consist of files of static text stored within the web serverâs file
system (static web pages) or the web server may construct the (X)HTML for each
web pages when it is requested by a browser (dynamic web pages). âą Client-side
scripting can make web pages more responsive to user input once in the client
browser.
4. The World Wide Web is a powerful tool for communicating ideas, facts and opinions
throughout the world.
âą The World Wide Web (WWW) is an open source information space where
documents and other web resources are identified by URLs, interlinked by hypertext
links, and can be accessed via the internet.
âą It is simply known as the Web. The World Wide Web was central to the
development of the Information Age and is the primary tool for billion of people to
interact over the internet.

7. There are two things that every website must have:
1. A Domain Name (Your Websites Address).
2. Web Hosting (A computer to host your website that is
connected to the internet 24/7 and has super fast access
speed to keep your website available at all times.
8. The first thing you need to do is to choose a domain name for your website.
Your website visitors get their first impression about the website based on your
domain name.
This is why you want to make sure your domain name:
a) Is relevant to the content of your website, b) Is simple & easy to remember
(preferably a catchy phrase), c) Is short and descriptive d) Has the right extension
(.com, .org, or .net)
Once you have an idea of what you would like your domain name to be, you will
need to check to see if it is available.
You can do this at any of the big name domain registrars, such as:
Godaddy.com NameCheap.com Name.com
9. The second thing that all websites must have, is web hosting. A Web host
account is a server that holds the files that make up your website and makes it
available at high speeds online 24/7 for the world to see.
When looking for a webhosting company there are a few things you should
consider:
1. Their server location. (is it located in your country)
2. How much Web Space & Bandwidth they offer (preferably unlimited)
3. Price â Always important.
4. Uptime â look for a min of 99.9% Uptime.
10. It is most important to define a purpose of your website that why you are
going to make a website. Are you designing it for the business purpose, or for
providing information to your readers about your product or you are going to
develop an e-commerce website? It will make you easy for the selection of
your technology, in which you want to develop your website. You can use
HTML5, any CMS like WordPress, Joomla, Magneto, Drupal or anyone else.

you best web design services on his best level.

appropriate keywords in your content to rank high in a search engine. The types
of content like language, Video, Picture etc. have an influence of how fast and
slow that website will load. The Quality design represents your capability and
professionalism. So, both have the equal importance.
13. Navigation helps the user to navigate from one page to another page. Only a
good navigation can provide the better user experience and if your website have
not a good user experience, people will not come back to you. So it is necessary
to make an easy navigation on your website. One of another factor which affect
your website success is load-time so make sure loading time of your website is
good. To increase your website's loading time avoid to include unnecessary
scripts, ads, heavy images, flashes etc.

Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari. And as you know there are also have your
competitor website about your niche so make sure your website stand out
from others and keep your website regularly up to date to keep visitors

your content. Social media marketing helps you to get success and
make a positive appearance in your competitive market. You can say
that social media is the great source to reach your potential audience
and interact with them. To get the benefit of social media, you just
need to utilize this source in a perfect way.
16. Security is must necessary especially when you are collecting the
user information like bank account details, login details etc. Make
sure you are using the best security system on your website while
you are building a website. Even you need to make your domain
name secure with the SSL certificate.

with a well-designed footer can attract visitors.
18. These are a basic point to keep in mind while developing a website. While
