Creating Your Professional Image on the Internet
By Shelley Lowery
There are many types of professionals on the Internet. Business
consultants, writers, web designers, software developers,
the list goes on and on. What does it take to be considered
a professional? Well, according to the definition from Webster's
dictionary, a professional is "Engaged in, or worthy
of the standards of, a profession."
Does this definition mean that if you are engaged in a profession
you are automatically considered a "professional?"
Of course not. Creating a professional image entails a great
deal of time and effort. Not only should you have a great
deal of knowledge and experience in your chosen field, but
you must conduct your business in a professional manner. Developing
a professional image on the Internet will include all aspects
of your business.

Looking for a way to track your visitors? Try StatCounter
If you've been in business longer than a week, you know its
important to have customers who return and want to use your
services again. In a store, you see faces; in a traditional
bricks and mortar business, you correspond or call; with a
website, how do you know who's come?
Most web hosting programs come with some limited way to track
your visitors, but you're really never sure how they define
a visit, a page view, etc. What do all of these things mean?
It all depends on your host. If you're able to get beyond
the basic information, it usually costs an arm and a leg,
or you have to be willing and able to read your visitor logs.
You know the information is out there but you also respect
your clients and visitors and want to avoid shady marketing,
adware, and spyware.
