at least half of the people who watch it only watch it for the famous Superbowl commercials. They’re usually pretty good, this year, the familiar faces signed on for large sums of money to advertise their products: Budwesier, Bud Light, Coke, Go Daddy, Doritos, Monster.com, Snickers… etc.

Companies spend millions of dollars (between $2.5 million and $2.8 million for a 30-second spot) for their commercials to be aired during the Super Bowl. Last night wasn’t the exception. Humor dominated the Super Bowl commercials, animals and underwear were recurring themes.

In case you missed any of the commercials, you can view some of them below.
Be sure to leave a comment telling me which one was your favorite.

Before start creating your website you will need to identify what you want your website to achieve.

• Do you want to sell products?
• Advertise your services?
• Or just be a point for potential customers to gather information?

It would also benefit to know who your target audience will be. Once you have your goal(s) you can start to plan your website.

Do you need updates?

Dependent on your websites purpose, you will need a rough idea of how often you will need to update your website.

If your website doesn’t need to be updated regularly, then it would be more cost-effective if the is site updated by the company that built it – this would also save you time.

If you plan to change your website frequently (adding new products, updating your news feed etc…) then it would be in your interest to have your website with a content management system. A CMS will allow you to easily add and edit information on your site without having to have any technical knowledge.

How to choose a domain name?

One of the most important steps to take when creating your online presence is choosing the correct domain name. Your domain name is your online identity and will represent your website and business.

Finding a good domain today has become a lot more difficult, with over 168 million domains registered worldwide and increasing each day. But don’t panic, there are still many domains out there that can benefit your company; you will just have to be more creative.

Some of the most important factors when choosing a domain name are:

• Keep it short and simple.
• Make sure it is easy to spell.
• Make sure it’s easy to remember.

I would recommend trying to keep your domain under 20 characters with no more than 3 words.

If possible, you should consider using a keyword in your name, e.g. if your website is about computers, then having “computers” in the domain name would be beneficial. Not only would it let potential visitors know what your website is about, it would also have a positive effect when it comes to search engine optimisation.

Now we know what to look out for in a domain name, it’s time to start brainstorming ideas.

• Create a list of possible domains just using your business name.
• Create a list of possible domains from the services you offer .
• Now try and mix the above together.

Now we should have a reasonably long list of potential domain names which we need to see if they are available. There are many websites that let you check a domain’s status, search your domain here.

Who will be hosting your website?

When choosing a company to host your website, there are a few things to look out for:

• Amount of web space – How big is your website? Do you have hundreds of pages? You will need to choose a package that will support your needs.
• Data transfer / bandwidth – Make sure you will have enough bandwidth.
• Reliability and speed of access – A web host should not only be reliable and fast but they should also guarantee their uptime.
• Technical support – Make sure the company offers 24/7 support, as problems could arise at any time.
• Features – Most hosts nowadays offer a fully featured control panel, which allows you to control your server easily (setting up email accounts etc…).
• Get your hosting here

Do you have a corporate identity?

If your company already has a brand, then this should be incorporated into your website. I would suggest giving your designer some off your literature and explaining the colours you want the kind of layout you like and any other comments you feel will help the designer.

By now you should have a strong understanding of what your websites purpose is and what kind of questions to ask your web designer.

I’m pretty settled on this logo, but as always, comments are welcome … especially if you see some glaring error or whatnot that would require my attention. Any feedback – constructive or deconstructive! Bring it on!

Provide your customers with easy to digest information and not tall claims. Use simple, concise and easy to understand language, and minimize the use of overly technical words and industry jargon, that can be understood only by a small section of people. All your ideas must be well thought and clearly expressed in the content. Ambiguity in language or expression can negatively affect the image of your site and company.

Your design should be clear, simple and fresh! Your target market should not have to wonder what you do or how to contact you. There is a fine line between keeping it simple and not giving enough information.

RED, is claimed to be the most commonly used color in logo design as it easily grabs attention of the viewers. However, red should not be only used for its arresting quality because it says a lot more. With the soon approaching Christmas, I clicked with the idea of collecting some logos from the internet. So, let’s join the Christmas celebrations with these inspiring “Red Logo Designs”

Of course I’m in the business of designing Web sites, so naturally I’m going to encourage you to hire me for that important job. In answering your question, “Do I need a Web site?” I simply can’t think of a single reason to say “no.”

But instead of just saying “no,” we’ll ask you six questions.

• Do you actively market your business?
• Do you have more to tell customers and prospects than space allows in a brochure?
• Does your competition have a web presence?
• Is serving your customer in every way possible a key value in your organization?
• Are you spending too much time on the phone, answering questions and explaining things to people who just want general information?
• Do you spend too much time making a sale?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, a Web site would be beneficial to your operation.

What can you Do with your Web site?

• Describe your products and services in as much sizzling detail as necessary
• Use brilliant photos to empower your selling message
• Inexpensively convert prospects into customers
• Motivate people to call for more information
• Get readers to come to your place of business
• Make people comfortable and familiar with your unique brand
• Tell the whole world all about your company’s who, what, when, where, why and how
• Collect payments
• Communicate with vendors, suppliers and staff
• Screen potential employees and accept applications
• Post revolving news about your newest products and services
