Create Interesting ‘Coming Soon’ Pages

 Create Interesting ‘Coming Soon’ Pages

A website is the face of a business, organization or a person on the web. Having a strong

web presence is an important aspect of a new business to be successful. It can take a while

to design and create a live website even for professional website designers. Therefore,

before the launch of a complete website, it is critical for businesses to give viewers a sneak

peak at what they will be offering. And, believe it or not, having great ‘Coming Soon’ pages

can enhance the popularity of a business or an organization. Here are a few tips for creating

interesting ‘Coming Soon’ pages:

1. ‘Coming Soon’ page should reflect what people need to know in advance so they can

spread the word about the company. Use a clear and concise message that describes

what the business is about. Include a graphic that will grab attention of visitors and

make them stay on the page for at least 2-3 seconds!

2. Give enough (but not too much) information about your company so that viewers

remain interested and curious.

3. This page also reflects the personality of your business or organization. So, using the

company logo and a bit of the same color theme as the complete website would be a

good idea.

4. If you are a business that is allowing people to sign-up for something or pre-order

an item then keep the forms simple and clearly visible.

5. Make the page attractive enough for people to start sharing on social media, i.e.

Facebook, LinkedIn etc. Making a company easy to find on the web is a huge

advantage.

Have fun designing a unique ‘Coming Soon’ page!

touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. However, because it is

customizable and low-cost, its applications extend to media boxes, game consoles and even

cameras! It has gained immense popularity among the programmers community because it

is completely open source. Developers can write their own apps for free using Android

development tools from Google.

To write and app for Android, you need to know Java programming language and, of

course, a Windows PC, Mac or Linux box to compile it. Linux.com is now also offering

Build Outdoor Waterfalls

 Build Outdoor Waterfalls An outdoor natural waterfall is a beautiful addition to your home. It adds soothing sounds, color and another dimension to your garden. A waterfall has 3 structural components: - The pool or basin that catches water at the bottom. - Top of the waterfall where water falls from - Center Rock cascade where water flows down. For ideas on types of waterfall, get inspired by nature. Decide on the size and height you would like. Look for slopes in your yard, if any, or make an artificial slope for smooth downward flow of water. Then dig out a hole for the pond. The dirt that comes out of that hole can be used to shape the cascade. Cover ground with rubber liner so that it will hold water to the desired area. Plan for more rubber liner than you can think of and trim the extra. Position the rocks, at least a few large ones, which will hold the liner. Have a safe electric supply nearby. Use a submersible pump to install in the pond for water circulation from the poo...

Just where do you Start Landscaping when you have a Big, Unkempt, Backyard

 Just where do you Start Landscaping when you have a Big, Unkempt, Backyard If you have bought a home because you just loved its big backyard then you are in for an incredible adventure! It is especially true if the yard has not been maintained properly for a long time. It means that a lot of work is needed to be done to make it usable. Backyard landscaping is a big project that requires close collaboration between you (the homeowner) and the contractor you have hired. It is about making a lot of decisions, big and small. Start with a vision and plan on a piece of paper. Decide which plants and physical structures you want to keep. Clean up any dead trees, stumps and bushes. Then figure out where you want the lawn to be. Lawns consume a lot of water, so if you want to reduce water consumption then keep the lawn small and/or create concrete or brick pathway along the edge. Pathways are great for kids who like to scooter and bike or for your morning walks! The other big decision to m...
