Little time, and computer problems are forcing me to get right to the point this week. I am sure you all prefer that anyhow.
This week we’ve got advice on maximizing your internal linking, 17 hours of javascript tips from the pros, and Eric Peterson on the changing world of analytics.
Internet Marketing and SEO
- We start the week with SEER interactive (or is that Seer? Bloody allcaps) and 7 Ways to Maximize Internal Linking Value.
- Next up SEO Gadget on microformats and how you can use them.
Technology
- Am I the only one who doesn’t like Smashings new design? Well, regardless here is getting started with content management systems. A useful article for anyone looking to replace their archaic old hard coded HTML pages with something more user friendly.
- Nettuts has outdone themselves in their roundup today, with 17 hours of javascript tips and tricks videos by the likes of Douglas Crockford and John Resig.
Web Analytics
- From the Grok (or is that Brian Eisenberg now? God I don’t know any more): There Is No One-Size-Fits-All Conversion Rate.
- We haven’t cited Eric Peterson in the roundup in quite a while, but this recent post on recent changes in the analytics world, which in turn dove tails into a pretty cool white paper. Check it out.
Web Usability
- A topic close to my heart, UX Booth is talking about the future of interface design. This article looks at the various kinds of new interfacing technologies being developed across a variety of sectors, including military and automobile, and ranging to video games. Pretty awesome.
- Haven’t read this one fully yet, as I don’t feel a quick skim can do it justice: Moderating with Multiple Personalities: 3 Roles for Facilitating Usability Tests. It starts great though and is definitely going in my “will read” pile.
Miscellaneous links of the week:
- Firefox turns five today, and Ars Technica gives a little history on it.
- Usability Post argues that our desktop apps buying process has… poor usability. Do not fear, however, as there are better distribution models.
