If you have ever spent any amount of time customizing a wordpress theme just to lose it to a wordpress upgrade then this tip is for you.

Before installing an update to wordpress and risk losing any of the customization you may have done try reverting to the default theme. Do the upgrade and then switch back to the customized wordpress theme. (Remember to always do a backup on your WordPress before updating)

Have you upgraded your WordPress lately?

Website designs should be creative and with e-business in mind. But the users should be considered throughout the entire website design process. Write down the overall goals and use the information to make strategic recommendations.

(1) Design:
Design plays a competitive advantage but simplicity is just as important. A bad design can confuse and drive that customer away.

(2) Logo:
A good, eye-catching business logo design will attract more and more customers. With your logo you can also have business cards, flyers and letterheads. Find a good quality, low cost logo designer.

(3) Color:
Use color sparingly. Color can distract. Choose two or three colors and stick with them.

4) Speed:
Slow design can steer customers towards your competition. Reduce the size of your graphics as much as possible without loosing quality.

Web design plays a key part in your online identity. Your website will be your online business face. Remember the KISS method.
