About.com Readers' Choice Awards 2011 This week I am pleased to announce the About.com Readers' Choice Awards Winners. The competition was fierce in many categories. But the votes have been tabulated and today the winners were announced. Congratulations to all the winners!

Don't Dismiss Keywords
Just because Google doesn't use the keywords meta tag in their search algorithm doesn't mean that you should ignore keywords on your web pages. You just shouldn't worry about the meta tag. The keywords you are targeting are still important. In fact, I often use the meta tag to list the keyword phrases I'm targeting so that I can remember. Learn all about keywords and how they are used in HTML and on web pages in this article.

Don't Turn Away Free Publicity
It is human nature to evaluate everything we come in contact with. And when we do that, it is normal that some things come up short. But when it comes to publicity, it is much better to accept kudos gracefully than to act like a snob and turn it down. Learn how to evaluate publicity opportunities for web pages and recognize good publicity even if it comes from a source you don't recognize or value.

Will My New Web Editor Edit My Existing Site?
You may be considering switching to a new web page editor, but what about your existing web pages? What happens with them in the new editor? The first book I ever wrote, I wrote in Word Perfect. When I sent it to my editor, she was using Word, and the whole thing came through in red, strikeout text. Can you imagine if the same thing happened when you changed web editors? It is a very legitimate concern. And to ease your fears, pretty well unfounded. But read the FAQ to learn more.

Poll: How do you prefer to create white space in your web de
White space is a crucial element in design because it defines the rest of the elements of the design. If you don't have white space in your design, it will be very hard to read and most people won't like it at all. But there are many ways you can get white space in web designs. You can use the CSS style properties margin and padding (and other CSS properties), you can use transparent images, non-breaking spaces, or even HTML tables or paragraph and BR tags. Some methods are better than others, but what method do you prefer to use? Vote Now View Results
