Article Surfing ArchiveDo You Have Web Site Challenges? - Articles SurfingHave you ever wondered what challenges are faced by other webmasters and owners in the design and promotion of their websites, well I certainly have and so I decided to try and find out. I created a short survey which asked the following questions: 1. How long have you been running a website ? For most questions respondents were asked to choose their answers from a list and could select as many answers as they thought applied to them. In answer to Q1. How long have they been running a website ? 27% answered less than 6 months. To answer Q2. What challenges do they face right now with the DESIGN of their website, respondents were given 36 possible answers to choose from. The top 10 challenges respondents gave in DESIGN were, in order: To answer Q3. What challenges do they face right now with the PROMOTION of their website, respondents were given 24 possible answers to choose from. The top 10 challenges respondents gave in PROMOTION were, in order: In regard to challenges over the next 12 months and the number one and two single biggest problems in running a web business, the common theme was getting enough traffic, cheaply and finding the time to do everything. On how experienced respondents considered themselves with all areas of WEB DESIGN the majority felt competent but would like to learn more.

Not enough responses have been collected to make these results statistically sound, so if you would like to contribute to these finding then you can take the short survey at the link below. I will publish an update to these findings on my site. As a thank you for completing the survey I have some good advice on the site to help with the 3rd highest issue with web design that of choosing an adding a link directory. I am also giving away some free automated link directory management software.
