Shelly,
I think Diane did a wonderful job explaining these things, and her
advice on picking up on what others have done on their site is a good
idea for tips on how to make things appealing.
I will just reiterate some of these things she mentioned. If you plan
to put a link to other websites, you SHOULD gain permission. Simply
linking from your site to another is not a violation of any copyright
laws, but it is good etiquette to do so simply because the other
webmaster might want to reciprocate, or may not be expecting the
increased traffic. If you plan to PULL and icon from another website
and put it on yours for others to use to get to another website, you
SHOULD MOST DEFINITELY get permission as this constitutes using items
from another website. Some sites actually encourage using items from
their site. It is best to ask though if not given prior permission.
It is best to put only ONE hit counter on your site.
This is usually done on the main page which most people will be directed
to anyway when coming to your site initially. You COULD put other
counters on, but it might look tacky and it could cause confusion.
As for site statistics, there is a way (I can't remember how right now
but will check on it) to have a page that will give you timely site
statistics. The usual way to do this though is through the publishing
wizard which has a report feature in it. I will have to check on how
comprehensive that feature is though.
I assume you want to know about monthly access, etc.
to the site. If other I will have to look into that as well.
When it comes to long pages there are a couple of ways to approach this.
It is generally advisable to NOT have really long pages as in if the
page is more than a couple screen pages long, it is better to break it
up into other pages. If the page is two to three pages long, then you
can put "bookmarks", or "targets" into the document and give users the
ability to jump to a location in the document with the links at the top
of the page (a type of linked index), and/or jump back to the top of the
page from within the document.
