Success Stories: Sage-Hearts.com
Rosalind Gardner got her Sage-Hearts.com online almost five years ago. Sage-Hearts.com is a place where visitors can find reliable information about the hundreds of “dating” sites online and unbiased reviews. Does this work?

More Laws of Effective Navigation: Navigation Must Stand Out
You’ll need to have a clear section of the page designated for navigation–one that a visitor will immediately recognize as the navigation area when he arrives at the site. Navigation should not necessarily be the prime focus, but it must be highly visible.
On many sites, the main navigation is overly subdued. It sort of “lurks” on the page, but it’s not the kind of thing that really gets to a visitor’s consciousness. It gets drowned out because there is too much color or excitement in the rest of the page.
HOW TO USE A
Do you remember all the anxiety about Y2K in 1999? It created a “hot market”. A lot of businesses jumped into that hot market. Many of them failed when the Y2K problem evaporated. But a few used the unique opportunity it provided to build permanent, profitable businesses.
