Some people love the thrill of creating a new condominium information site, but are very disinterested about maintaining the site. Yet, if you don't keep your information current and there is nothing appealing about your website, you will lose viewers and probably won't attract very many new ones. What to do? Put the following tips to good use!

Images can be an incredible asset to a condominium information site when used effectively. The dull text will be livened up with them. The effect on traffic could be damaging if they are not "lightweight" so keep them as light as you possibly can. It takes larger image files more time to load than smaller files. Pages that are slow to load turn people off.

As you write your article, keep it short and to the point. If people wanted a long and drawn out explanation of something they would read the book, not articles. Keep the page neat and clean so that it doesn't make the reader lose focus on the content. Also, keep the paragraphs short enough that it's to the point, but long enough that it's informative. By making the articles clever and full of useful information, people will come back for more.

For users to have the full user experience on your condominium information site, they have to get through to where they want to go without anything blocking their way. This also includes the "Register" or "Sign up" button. If your website requires users to register, place it where they'll be able to find it easily. For most it's usually placed where users are required to log in, so that may be the best spot. Otherwise you may lose users rather than gain more.

Having a high Alexa ranking is critical to obtaining large advertising revenues. The higher your rank, the more you can charge for advertising. You can improve your Alexa rankings by writing reviews on Alexa's top 100 sites.

Internet users will only give your web page a couple of seconds to load before they leave and find somewhere else to go. On top of that, search engines also incorporate loading speed into their algorithms, so the faster your site loads, the higher your ranking will be. Your condominium information site needs to load and perform quickly!

When users want to access members only areas, providing a clear link to signing up or logging in is vital. Including the username and a logout link on the top right side of the page while the user is logged in ensures that the user knows when they are logged in.

You don't want your users to think that your condominium information site is cold and impersonal. To get them to be drawn in and feel like they're making a personal relationship through your text, don't be afraid to show some of your personality in your content. Make it conversational and use words that are easy to understand. It will be easier for them to read and could be fun if you use a little humor.
