“In the early days of the Web, there was but one way to browse the Web: one stinkin’ page at a time. The Web seemed to move at a snail’s pace compared to today’s more frenetic pace.

Naturally, your business website needs to be graphically attractive, easy to navigate and quick to load. More importantly, your website needs to offer real value to users. It needs to be functional — that is, it needs to enable and empower visitors to the site to DO things that are of value to them.”
