However, one of the main advantages for social media in businesses is that it has a large user base, making it easier to engage with your target audience. People throughout the world use social media to stay in touch with loved ones, purchase goods, or read the news.

How to create a search engine friendly infrastructure:

Infrastructure Architecture (IA) and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) complement one another.
IA & SEO integrate to make your website as more powerful and useful for your web visitors. They together create a simple content for users and SERPs. Both of these ensures search engines to index your website properly. SEO experts like those at https://victoriousseo.com/blog/google-business-optimization/ map out each feature of SEO for your website. It solves overload problems which may plague websites.

The four main components of IA are
1. Organization system– The team organizes the content on web page by category, subject, location or process.
2. Labelling system– The way in which the content is represented by various links location on each page.
3. Navigation system– This helps the web visitors to use our content.
4. Search system– The users search information on your site with help of specific keywords.

While setting up a site’s search function, few points are to be considered that really work for your visitors.

A good site search system is designed by keeping goals of a reader in mind. A site search box helps your web visitors to find the content. It’s better for websites to plan and then set up a site search box. When a site is smaller, the goal of web readers is easy to find the content.

Keyword or specific phrase section would help you to discover the search of the visitors. This can also be done by reviewing log files or analytic data. Optimized content with specific keywords would increase the search results on your web page.

The web readers may get tired of information overload while browsing. The users just scan your content and don’t read the entire information.

You should always create a search engine within your site. It would have a site search function. This algorithm helps to index all the content on your site. It is better to develop a search engine based on efforts of SEO.

Boost your Call to action button

Posted On Aug03 2011 Leave a Comment Written by admin

“Good call to action button is the one which calls and attracts you to click on it.”

Call to action buttons as per the name are those buttons on a website which are for users to perform some action which most of times may result in deal. It may be like “join now”, “click here” or “apply now” etc. The development of button becomes necessary because it’s the place or an entry gate from where user makes any kind of deal.

Now, the shape, size, color and location of button become necessary as it is closely connected with psychology to deal or not, because not only you are the one on internet who is providing such facilities to the user.

Moreover the user`s sub consciousness will select the button which is convincing and attractive and even he wouldn`t know about it, this is our work to make a user comfortable with such things on website.

Yes, it happens that when a person finds a button on any website, most of the people click those buttons which seem convincing, are of good size and even the color matters most, which is why I wrote it becomes psychological concept.

Small button but big outcomes, well you must read following tips to maximize it and add possibilities to your business.

Tips to design & spotlight the button:

Size in action- Call in action

Very first thing to be discussed is the size of the button; it needs to be big enough in size, so that your users need not to crawl through the whole page to search it, don’t worry; before crawling much they`ll leave the page.

That is why size of the button is very prominent part, make it of noticeable size, and even if they find it easily, most of users won`t prefer to click on small buttons to proceed.

Moreover size speaks about importance of the button; there may be many buttons on your page, so adjust them according to their importance. The biggest button on website automatically says that it`s most important one, the main purpose of site most of the times.

Do not oversize all of your buttons, few are good as left small, but the ones with prominence must look highlighted on page as soon as one opens it.

Place of action

The placement of button may cause the same problem as size; users won’t wait till they say “yes I’ve found it”. You should know this simple thing before researching every corner of web page for location that when will the user go towards button?

Answer is when he will finish going through the content, obviously they won`t read full content but psychologically and habitually they will reach at the end of the content for the button, so the best place is near or at the end of the content of your website.

Color of the button:

This is most important part in button optimization, above all creations namely: the size, placement and message. The color matters most because in other means we can say it displays the button. Contrasting colors like red, black are good while soothing colors like blue, sky-blue and purple also play fine role.

The background and other contents on the page also determine the color the button and the text of the button too.

Click here

What most attracts the user in button is color, many of users are like they can`t just leave the page without a click even which is of no use to them, the curiosity may be, that’s the color impression of the button.

Text of the button:

Text of the button needs to be short and complete; big size does not mean you got space to write more text, but size of the text also increases, exceptions being always there but generally buttons having more words look ugly. And about font:

  • Font: Calibri, times new roman, Verdana etc, Comic sans is also very impressive one.
  • Font color: white, black, blue and green are good colors depending on button colors & fine contrast.
  • Font size: big button and big font.

Few interesting tips about the button:

  • The button edges should be slightly curved rather than pointed, check out difference between the both. The difference what I find is pointed curved buttons do not look more attractive and sometimes they do not seem like a button but are mixed in page design.

 

 

  • Rounded rectangular type buttons with no edge and ovals are also good enough.

  • Perfect square shaped buttons should be taken less in use as their place is limited. While circles should be used carefully; they look beautiful but not at every place.

 

 

The square and rectangular pointed edged buttons are not good enough because they do not look emerged.

A start-up where your passion meets your hunches (for cricket lovers)

Posted On May17 2011 Leave a Comment Written by admin

After spending most of my life in a country where Cricket is a religion, where everyone has an opinion on the game, and people bet millions on the outcome of match results and player performances, it was just impossible to not think about creating a platform where fans can boast about their hunches & predictions on players’ performances, compete with friends and win prizes. After 3 years of thinking and discussing the idea with some close friends and followers of the sport, we finally settled with an idea that I believe has immense potential to grow. (Yes, 3 years is a long time and it ain’t rocket science conceptualising and creating a website, but I had my limitations!)

There are tons of cricket fantasy websites out there and if you follow the granddaddy of all cricket websites – cricinfo.com – it is very likely that you have participated in their Fantasy game at least once. They had over 50k active users during the World Cup. There are other such Cricket Fantasy League sites too, but the core concept of each of them is the same – you select a team of players based on a set of rules. The only question you have to ask yourself while selecting a player is “Will he perform well?” because that is the only way you can score points. The better your selected player performs, the more points you get. But if your chosen player doesn’t score runs or take wickets, he is no good for you. If you ask me, there is no thrill in that.

So we have come up with a fantasy game concept that works more on your expectations rather than just getting lucky with a player. The thought process behind this concept is this – there are many times when you are sure that a player isn’t going to play well in a particular match and will get out for say, less than 10 runs. This game will give you a chance to pick that player in your team and say so. Predict that he is going to score less than 10 runs. The nearer your hunch is to how the player actually performed, the more points you get. But at the same time if you go terribly wrong with your predictions, you can lose points

We’ve also added an extra dimension to the game in the form of “badges”. Members can earn badges based on their achievements. Each badge gives them certain points that we call “CP Bucks”. These Bucks can be redeemed for real money or other prizes!

I believe this concept takes Cricket Fantasy to a new level where it brings more excitement & involvement in the game. It gives you the opportunity to score off failures unlike other games, but you also have to live with a constant fear of losing quickly in case of wrong predictions.

This concept took a long time to take shape. We had been trying to come up with a real business model which is win-win for us as well as the participants. And now that that piece of the puzzle has been solved – we are ready to go live with the core idea. We now look to gain some traction and then pitch it to investors to get funding and complete the product, which should surpass every other cricket fantasy website in the market.

Go ahead and check it out yourself – http://cricketpredictions.com and give us your valuable feedback.

Here is a sample report of how your predictions, results and points may look like –

Another good example is the ‘coats of arms’, which was used in Europe and Japan to depict an army and groups of people with a common cause.
