Are you frustrated hiring web designers for your business websites? Do you feel that the money that you pay for professional fees does not give you the return that you expect? The solution to your problem is not necessarily as expensive or as sophisticated. Your problem can be solved by simply downloading affordable but highly professional web templates. You do not even need knowledge of HTML or web programming to implement the effective designs that that appeal to your site’s particular target demographic. You can attract more customers by choosing the most appropriate web design for your site. If the design of your site is appealing, customers and accidental visitors will have the tendency to stay longer.

Although high quality products and reliable services are the best selling points for your websites, the design also significantly matters. The design determines the appeal and interactivity of your site. It says something about your sense of aesthetics and practicality. The design should be user-friendly. It must be easy to navigate and easy to load. As much as possible, you should avoid using web designs that use many plug-ins and animations or very large graphics and files. Your would-be customers have very short patience. Considering the overwhelming online competition, your site’s potential customers will have the tendency to browse away from your site if it is unappealing or too slow to load.

Ideal web templates should immediately impress visitors and also immediately present information about the site. The visitors or customers must immediately know what exactly does your site offers. Graphics should be relevant and the layout should be ergonomic. Sites that are highly organized are easy to navigate and less frustrating to explore. If possible, detractive animations, pop-ups, and advertisements should be avoided. Your customers have the tendency to be irritated by too many irrelevant graphics or animations. You should choose web templates that have straightforward designs.

Product or site information should be immediately accessible. Purchase or order forms should be simple. Catalogs should be highly organized. Categories, alphabetization, and graphics help when presenting catalogs. Informative contents should be included in the catalogs. If you are operating a small online business and you still cannot afford to hire web designers and programmers, it helps a lot if you can easily download affordable web templates.

Introduction to HTML Forms

The form that you see below is the comment form of YPEC's sign up page. HTML forms are easy to create and to implement, provided that you have a web host or server that will receive and process the input data. The comment page of this post is another example of HTML form.

HTML forms utilize CGI and PERL programs for them to function. CGI stands for Common Gateway Interface while PERL stands for Practical Extraction and Report Language. CGI is the interface that allows communication between the server and the user while PERL is the program that allows the transfer, encoding, and interpretation of data.

Forms allow your site to be interactive by providing interface for the readers. HTML forms can be created by using the <form> tags.

HTML forms have two basic attributes, namely, method and action. Method refers to how the data is collected or sent to the server or host. The two basic types of method are post and get. "Post" deals with bigger type of data while "get" deals with smaller type of data. On the other hand, action refers to the CGI or PERL link on which the data will be posted.

Inside the "form" codes, the "input" element is contained. It refers to the type of data being asked. Examples of input include text, password, radio buttons, and check boxes.

For the sake of simplicity, the "post" type of method and "text" type of input will be shown here. In the example given below, the codes that are used are the following:

<form action="http://ypec.wordpress.com/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform">

<fieldset>

<p><label for="author">Name</label> <input name="author" id="author" value="" tabindex="1" type="text"> <em>Required</em></p>

<p><label for="email">Email</label> <input name="email" id="email" value="" tabindex="2" type="text"> <em>Required, hidden</em></p>

<p><label for="url">Url</label> <input name="url" id="url" value="" tabindex="3" type="text"></p>

<p><label for="comment">Comment</label> <textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="45" rows="10" tabindex="4"></textarea></p>

<p><input name="comment_post_ID" value="4" type="hidden">

<input name="submit" value="Submit" class="button" tabindex="5" type="submit"></p>

</fieldset>
