A new blog with daily tips on how to get the best out of the Internet!

We used these in the past but after a while they got a little annoying.

They are good fun however in the right places, and are great for things like FAQ pages and combined with forms to gather leads. You can actually use them to ‘persuade’ people to send you their details. Great for some sites - but not appropriate for others decide for yourself..

One thing to bear in mind is if these things are auto playing - you might alienate the kids of user who might be seaking in a bit of surfing in an open office!

Take a look at the SitePal website and make your own mind up…

There are a multitude of web hosting companies out there - but for the last couple of years I’ve gone for just the one and have been incredibly happy with the service we’ve received. They offer a fantastic package for any serious internet user - a massive amount of space for the money, unlimited domain names, and easy to use control panel and a level of support I’ve not had from any web host in the past. All for just $6.95 a month…

I’d say personally that Hostmonster are a very hard to beat! Excellent value for money all round for web hosting and domain registrations.
