CSS W3 Site Templates/Templets
We offer professional CSS w3 site templets. By offering CSS compliant template files,
you can use our web designs to create your website with minimal fuss, allowing you to
concentrate on your site's content.
Why CSS?
Proper CSS lends itself extremely well to search engine optimization (SEO). This means
that our templates are already optimized for the Search Engine Spiders (such as Googlebot)
that have to crawl your site, catalog your textual content, and rank your website amongst
its listing results. CSS also reduces the code required to create a webpage and emphasizes
the content, which is exactly what the search engines want to see, enabling more positive
ranking results in the SE listings.
CSS Support
Although CSS2 is an anceint standard in terms of the internet, not all browsers fully implement
CSS support. In particular, Internet Explorer lacks a great deal of support for CSS code.
Sadly, since more than 85% of the world uses IE, some of the CSS code which IE 6 fails
to support is not implemented. Luckily, almost any and all other current browser offerings
do not fail in this regard.
Complete Template Packages
We offer a few free website templates as well as some premium site templates. Most templates
come with:
- Photoshop .psd files for customizing the graphics (such as adding your own logo).
- Any custom fonts required to make the templets are provided in all available formats
(.ttf, .ps). You may have to install these fonts on your machine for editing purposes
in Photoshop. Fonts used for textual formatting are limited to standard widely available
fonts such as Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Verdana, Impact, Trebuchet, Tahoma, Comic
Sans MS, Onuava, Divona, Sirona, Georgia, and Times. If you
do not have one of these fonts, you may download it from one of the Templets Catalog
pages.
- Web optimized image files (.gif, .jpg, .png) and animation files (.gif, .swf) so that
image processing application software is not required.
- HTML and CSS text files which format and display your pages that are fully commented
so that you may more readily edit them in Dreamweaver or any other HTML editor as well
as any text editor.
- Documentation to guide you through the process of customizing your template, getting
your template tailored to fit your needs , and adding content.
