How many seconds do you give a website before you click away in frustration, disgust or simple
misunderstanding? 10 seconds? If so, that’s a long time. Studies indicate the average
“audition time” for a website is about 3 seconds. So if yours doesn’t clearly state its
purpose, provide clear calls to action and provide an intuitive and logical user interface,
your potential customers will remain just that: potential.
Perhaps it’s not surprising, then, that while it’s great if your website looks
attractive, it's more important that it work as intended. There are many possible
goals for a website: generating sales, soliciting leads, getting people to take on a
call to action (political, educational, charitable or otherwise), generating buzz,
creating the feeling of exclusivity among members and more. Sometimes the issue isn’t
even a website itself; it’s about a landing page for PPC or other direct marketing
campaigns. And there are also “internal” issues, such as making the website’s search
engine ranking be as high as possible.
Each one of these objectives requires a customized approach. Form follows function. So I
generally can’t tell you in advance just what your website should or will look like. First, I
have to understand you, your business and your objectives.
All JAJDesign websites include site-wide, page-specific search engine optimization. They also emphasize
usability for text-only browsers, search engine spiders and robots.
Whether you are considering redesigning an older site or you want to start from scratch with a

What is Web Hosting? Like a mall, Web Hosting needs space to build on and roads to get to it. Web Hosting server disk
space is where you store your website files by using a Web Host. Bandwidth is the speed of the
roads to access your site.
If you plan to grow your web business, the JAJDesign Virtual and Dedicated Server
System is for you. Your JAJDesign virtual server will allow you to establish an Internet presence on multiple
high speed OC-192/DS-3 connections at a fraction of the cost of a dedicated server
(which JAJDesign also offers).
Customers range from small businesses to large corporate clients. JAJDesign server architecture is the most
robust and flexible in the industry and is specifically designed to grow with you. Customers use their
JAJDesign server solutions for e-commerce, online auctions, chat forums, virtual postcards, polls and
surveys, live audio and video, secure conferencing, market research, banner advertisements, shopping
carts, email (virtual post offices), classified ads, databases, search engines, online stores and malls
and much more. You simply cannot do all this at your complete discretion with the typical hosting solution
because you do not have "root access" to your own server. With JAJDesign you do.
