Recommended Books for Webbies

Leave a comment

I have limited knowledge about web but after some videos and reading some articles I know that there is a big scope of improvement for every website. My top 3 recommendations to create a better user experience for any website:

  1. Don't make me think
    A must read for everyone. To make life simple for users is the theme of the book.
  2. Web usability
    Again simplicity is the main attraction.
  3. The Big Red Fiz
    What is definition to a good website?

The name of the book says it all. You can also go through  amazon’s review about these books. These are considered as  the top #3 books in the web industry.

Hope it helps :). Have a happy Monday.

[I will be posting my other reading recommendations very soon. That will be a huge list]

Why am I happy?

2 comments

While I am penning down my thoughts tonight I am extremely happy, but if you  ask me “what makes you so happy?” I don’t have any answer. Because I don’t know the reason. Someone has rightly said that happiness is a state of mind, you can experience it anywhere and at any hour of the day. And the best part about it is you don’t have to break your head to come up with a reason “Why am I happy?” May be you are happy because you are sitting near the windowpane with a cup of coffee watching the raindrops. I know it is weird but it is what makes you happy.

And at present I’m happy because I’m blogging 🙂

Me, Sunday and my Lunch

Meta Descriptions – Almost imp

Leave a comment

I never thought that I will be starting my blog with a Search Engine topic but while reading some regular search engine stuff I stumbled upon a post by Jill Whalen of Highranking.com (One who has written a lot of great SEO posts).

One of her post thats been taught to me was how to write meta description (Meta means about, Meta description means description about description). Read her latest post (a revamp of the early post) “7 Ways Your Page May Be Described in the SERPs“.

Meta descriptions are very tricky, one that is hardly visible but still can be used as the entry point for your website. DON’T SPAM, RESPECT META TAGS. Meta tags are almost useless from search engine rankings point of view but still very important from Search engine experience point of view. Those description can be the first sentence a visitor see about your website, which might prompt them to visit or reject (which indirectly is all about SEO). So use it efficiently for a greater return and experience. Happy meta addition!

This is my first post
