Developers may hear about Twitter Bootstrap and wonder exactly what it means in terms of designing new websites and building platforms for clients.

Overall, it’s a streamlined version of a regular WordPress blog, focusing on simplicity and modern interfaces.

Multimedia ties in quite a few different forms of entertainment. The good part is that all of these multimedia examples are useful on a website. For example, video works nicely for sharing quick information or for attempting a viral video of some sort. Audio is a must-have for musicians, podcasters, radios and more. In addition, images are pretty much used by every company out there. The only problem is that multimedia slows down your site. It has the ability to destroy site performance so much that people stop coming to check out your content.

If you run an interior design or furniture company, people find your business by searching for the closest relevant option in the area and giving you a call after checking out your website. It’s the way the world works today, and that means you need a solid website to share details about your business and get people to walk through your doors or call you for an interior design quote.

Trends come and go in the web design world, but minimalism seems to be sticking around. In fact, every type of design industry seems to somehow make its way back to the simpler times, allowing for more functionality and less flair. The point of a minimal website is to put most of the focus on the content that matters, as opposed to having flashy animations, 3D-looking web elements, and too many moving parts.

It’s that time. The end of the week, when young people throughout the world drop the suits and business attire to put on more revealing clothing, in an attempt to dance, throw back some drinks and mingle with other people.

The age of the podcast is upon us, and those who have taken advantage of the situation have begun to make a considerable amount of money.

Order up! It’s time to get those tables filled and the kitchen staff working their butts off. A new restaurant requires a fresh look online, and luckily that’s not going to cost you that much.

Sure, you may end up upgrading to a premium theme in the future, but at least this gives you a head start.

We talk quite a bit about WordPress themes on this blog, but this is one of the first times you’ll be hearing about starter themes. I know what some of you are thinking, these must be themes designed for beginners. Nope, that’s not exactly the case. In fact, we only recommend them to somewhat experienced designers. Why? Because a starter theme doesn’t generally have any stylings or configurations just yet. It’s a fully functional theme, but one that typically requires coding.

As the web design world moves towards simplicity, it’s interesting to see all of the new website elements that come out of these changes. From flat designs to one-page layouts, designers are starting to understand how certain simple and clean parts of a website are actually more desirable than items used in the past. A prime example of this is the fullscreen website. It brings focus to call to actions, clears out the clutter, and can improve website conversions.

On the other hand, you can find niche directories for gaming sites, WordPress theme companies, and more. Some of these directories are completely free, while others require you to pay a fee.

Think about how students find information about the schools they’re going to opt for in the future. Whether we’re talking about high school students trying to locate the schools that offer majors of their choice, or if we’re thinking about students who could use an online learning program while working a full time or part time job. Sometimes college websites are merely for information, while other sites are built with huge infrastructures and online course functionality.

Heck, if you turn on Shark Tank, they even have dedicated shows to kids who have created million-dollar online businesses.

Your best first step in picking a venue for your event is to collect bookings through a website. The only problem is that a booking page takes lots of programming knowledge because of its complexity. However, booking pages are nothing new, so there’s no reason to reinvent the wheel.
