Is there an e- commerce web design software for Macintosh?

May 21, 2010 By 1 Comment

Hi, I need to do some professional web designing for some e-commerce sites and am looking for a MAC based software package – like Dreamweaver, but that allows me to add e-commerce apps (paypal, shopping cart,..etc). I am not versed in JavaScript, PHP and the like because I am mainly a graphic designer. Can anyone help me please> Thanks you!

tell you what… you need to learn a scripting language or you will have a very hard time making websites!!!

Is RapidWeaver a good web design software for Mac?

March 27, 2010 By 1 Comment

I’ve used Microsoft Web Expression in school and I know that it’s a pretty good design software, but my family is looking for a Web Design Software to use at home and we have a Mac. Is RapidWeaver good?

For Mac, RapidWeaver is the excellent choice since the software is really intended for building websites with Mac PCs in mind. Also recommended for seasoned Web Developers.

What article writing software is best for article marketing? Mass Article Control or Instant Article Wizard?

March 5, 2010 By 1 Comment

I need software that can actually help me create articles from scratch, not just rewrite articles. I need original content for my website because of the dupication penalty from Google.

But I understand that MAC has an article submitter, which is why I’m considering it. I have narrowed my choices down to MAC or IAW. Does anybody have any personal experience using either or both of these article marketing programs? And which one would be the best for article marketing if you can only choose one of them?

Well, with this question you are really comparing apples to oranges because each of these article softwares perform different functions. Let me explain, Mass Article Control is an article rewriter. It will take an article (called a seed article) and it will allow you to create hundreds of different or unique versions of that article (so as to avoid Google’s duplicate content penalty).

Then you can take these articles and mass submit them to the thousands of different article directories on the web. So in effect you are submitting a slightly different version of the same article and thus building back links that Google will recognize and you will not get the duplicate penalty because of the different content of each article it has created. And yes, it does include an article submitter program that will submit your unique articles to the top article directories like ezine articles and article dashboard…Mass Article Control is a very powerful piece of software for article marketing.

MAC link: http://rds.yahoo.com/**http%3a//cli.gs/mass-article-control

Now, Unique Article Wizard will help you create completely unique articles (from scratch) on any subject you choose by pulling it’s own research (fully automated) straight from the Internet and combining that research into a very readable article which you can then submit to the same article directories I mentioned before. So it is also a very powerful piece of software that performs a slightly different task than MAC.

UAW link: http://rds.yahoo.com/**http%3a//cli.gs/unique-article-wizard

I own both of these article softwares and they have helped me tremendously with my article marketing. I often get articles listed on page 1 of Google for the keywords I use in those articles. And I get tons of traffic from those Google listings.

The ideal situation would be to take UAW and create your seed articles then apply MAC to those seed articles and create hundreds of different versions – then submit those articles (with MAC) to the article directory websites for maximum effect. I hope this little explanation helps. Good luck in your article marketing efforts.

Say Goodbye to Desktop Software? Online Apps Make Headway,

February 10, 2010 By Leave a Comment

 

Remotely hosted web applications have been around for some time, but as the software gets refined and broadband access improves, web apps like ThinkFree.com may give your desktop office suite a run for the money.

One web offering that stands out is ThinkFree Online, and the price is the best yet – free! The service allows you to create, collaborate on and store your documents and files with a generous 30 GB of storage space.

The company is a subsidiary of Haansoft Corporation, a Korean computer software company based in Seoul. ThinkFree was founded in 1999 as a java-based office developing company. The ThinkFree Office, a desktop alternative to Microsoft Office was first released in 2000. It has had a couple of updates since then and the current 3.0 version is designed to be almost indistinguishable from Microsoft Office.

ThinkFree Office 3.0 is one of the few alternative programs to fully support Microsoft’s latest format from Office 2007 so that you can open files without risk of corrupting the layout or content. Business users will like the fact that there is no need to spend money or time training employees as the interface operates just like Microsoft Office. ThinkFree products use the same file formats across operating systems so they can be opened whether the user is on Windows, Linux or Mac machines. Best of all, ThinkFree Office 3.0 costs only $49.95 for an individual license while the cheapest form of Microsoft Office (the Home and Student Edition) costs three times as much.

In 2005, ThinkFree released its first online service and has continued to improve and add to the service ever since. You can now store up to 30 gb of documents on ThinkFree’s servers so you or your collaborators can access your documents any time and from any where. If you already have the desktop version of the software, the online application is ideal for being able to access the documents that you worked on from your home computer.

ThinkFree isn’t quite up to taking over Microsoft’s market share, though. Microsoft Office does have some advanced features that aren’t available with ThinkFree products. For the average user, though, it will be the perfect office suite as it has the three mainly used programs – word processor, spreadsheet application and presentation application. The online ThinkFree also offers a handy beta tool called Note which is a blog editor and should prove popular.

Being java based, ThinkFree does tend to be a bit slower in response than other programs of this nature. It also only will only open one document at a time so it’s more difficult to work back and forth when needed. There is one feature that I didn’t expect in this type of software and that is the ability to export as PDF. There is also a very handy file conversion tool within the online office suite which also can be very useful.

All in all, ThinkFree Office online is one of the best applications of its kind. The interface is easy to grasp and navigate so there isn’t a sharp learning curve for new users. Since it works in most operating environments, you are not limited to collaborating only with users of the same operating system. Used in conjunction with the low-cost desktop version, anyone can work away from home and not worry about backups because of the large storage capacity.
