LESSON TWO: Putting your splash page on the "map"!

This day in age Splash pages are all the rage! I know that was so bad, but I just couldn't help myself! I'm sure if you're anything like me, you constantly look at other photographers websites to see what they're doing. For a long time I was really unimpressed with my splash page, and everyone else seemed to have awesome pages.

Your Splash page is important. IT's where your potential client lands when they go to your main url. It's what grabs them and makes them want to go further into your website. Let's face it, if your landing page sucks, why should they look any further?

I encourage you to use the View-> Source feature in your web browser. It allows you to look at the source code of the page you are currently viewing. That's how I get my ideas! When you see pages you like, take a few minutes and look at the source code to see how they did it. You'll learn so much that way.
