- 1. Respect your visitors. Don’t try to force your visitors to read the content of your web-pages. Let them choose and decide what they want to read. For if you have someting to tell, you’ll find your listeners. Frankly, you are as good as everybody else. What would be your reaction to a dozen of pop-ups and the overflown ad blocks? My point exactly.

2. Bad advertisement is evil. Disturbing ad blocks might improve your ad revenue for a while, but in a long run they won’t make your web-site successful. In fact, you won’t gain respect and explore the potential you and your projects might have. However, ads perfectly combined with the main content and placed well in the structure of the site (i.e. devblog.de) don’t disturb. Furthermore, thus both reputation points and ad revenue points are guaranteed.
-
. Inform and teach your visitors. Share your thoughts, ideas, experience and knowledge with those who need or maybe will need your advise.
-
. Develop your own style. Develop your own ideas. Let yourself be inspired, but don’t copy.
-
. Respect the standards. Think about people. Taking web standards into consideration will help you to save a lot of work in the future. It won’t take long until web standards will become a standard in the

6. Be clear. Use a clear markup. Don’t be afraid to say what you mean.
-
Hate Internet Explorer if you like, but don’t ignore its users. Don’t design your code for special browsers or special resolutions. However, apply your code to Internet Explorer just as you apply it to other browsers
-
Care about your content. Developing web-sites, try to make them informative, interesting and well-presented. Don’t forget that your visitors remember everything. Once you’ve offered them a link to some inappropriate web-page without proper description of what is hidden behind the link, you’ll never see them again. Code is poetry, your content is prose

- ask.
- 13. Use the advantages of Semantic Web
-
Write, publish, feel free to ask. There are always plenty of web-developers, who were, are or will be asking the same question you have right now. Don’t hesistate to ask, don’t hesistate to find out
-
. Answer your e-mails immediately
-
14. Make connections.
-
15. Think in global terms. The content of your web-pages might not appeal to the public in your region, but the frontiers of the Web are vague and hardly visible (if they exist at all); so why not send your message in the world?
-
16. Never compromise your principles. Discussing the way a web-site should be presented or developed, respect your clients and their point of view. But keep in mind that you are actually the one who develops the site. Don’t do just what you are told to do.
-
site for users, not for your clients.
-
18. Learn to handle the creativity block. Searching for a new idea to pop in, try to browse through web-development-forums, focusing your attention on what other people are searching for. I.e. Sitepoint.com is a resource, which is visited by thousands of web-developers every day. Another option is… well, to take a break.
-
19. Make Web prettier. CSS, clear, readable and intelligent design are beautiful. How can you resist such a beauty?
-
20. Be aware of the Power of the Web. You are creating the Web, so you have a word to say. Support the projects, which seem to be important for you and have to be supported, because their aims are worth fighting for.
-
The rules mentioned above won’t bring you any success if you don’t believe in what you do and don’t explore your creativity. Every idea can be the one.
