It’s potential has not yet been reached and standardization of key aspects is steadily falling into place, the web is still like the Australian outback, a dessert of digital signals, images, text, GUI’s, SEO and so much more. Millions of pockets of information, media, entertainment and the like, flood in torrents by the nano-second onto the digital platform of the web and users consume it at record-breaking rates on a plethora of desktop and mobile devices.

- Content is KING – Content to a website is like the life blood of a living creature, it is vital that you produce, share/ re-share or circulate content that is reflective of your company or product(s) relevance to the subject matter. Not only that but your content should also have a narrative that is of the professional level you wish to convey and be personable at the same time. Talk to your users in their own tongue, so to speak.
- Usability (UX) is KING – If they can’t find it, then it doesn’t exist and if they can’t navigate to it, they’ll go elsewhere. I’m speaking of the User Experience (UX) of your online entity. You can add as much rich and dynamic content as you like on a regular schedule but if your users are unable to navigate to it via links, CTAs (Call to Action), and the site menus, then you have a huge problem that you should probably take a look at rectifying ASAP.
- SEO is KING –
- Branding is KING –
- YOU are KING – Why are you king? Without you none of this would be happening to begin with. Your idea/ product/ service has influenced and changed lives and will continue doing so in the future. You will be needed to continue that success in the coming years. You bring the spirit and the passion to your brand.
