Felicitations on the birth of a new year
In 2008 I began my business. Through 2009 – 2010 my business grew slowly and steadily. Now it is 2011 and I want to consolidate my ideas and direct my business along the paths which will give me the maximum satisfaction.

Read MoreSEO – what do I need to know?
When I started out as a freelance website creator I realised I did not want to be a ‘jane of all trades’, I wanted to concentrate on giving my clients an affordable and attractive website. Therefore I specifically state I do not offer SEO services apart from some very basic information.

*Part of a series of posts that will eventually become an ebook to help small businesses understand more about web design and the process of getting a great website. HTML Hyper Text Mark-up Language is the coding language used to create the content of your website. It includes tags which define the various elements of your website.
