“If you’re developing mobile websites, you need to bear in mind the diverse range of viewport dimensions you will be designing for.
Something that looks good on the iPhone may look different on an Android enabled phone and completely different again on a Nokia smartphone running Symbian S60.
At the very least, keep your mark-up W3C standards compliant and don’t rely on emulators – they are not yet sufficiently sophisticated to accurately reproduce what the phones are displaying. Ideally you’ll need to have the hardware to test out your cross-platform site.”

“To minimise the amount of spam you receive, you should place your email addresses online in a way that spambots usually can’t pick them up.
Write your email address as email [at] domainname.com rather than email@domainname.com.
If writing your email on a website using HTML, use Mailtool: to make it as user-friendly as possible for people who wish to contact you. Then obfuscate it with Hivelogic’s incredible Enkoder Form.”

“A large proportion of publishers I know own dozens if not hundreds of domain names. Later on they regret having purchased so many as they don’t have the time to build websites for them. Also they don’t attract the amount of type-in traffic they were hoping for. Therefore discipline yourself to only buy domain names that you must have.
Be cautious of hype-ridden new TLD releases. There is currently a lot of hysteria surrounding .co domain names, but they could end up being just as much of a damp squib as .tel, .ws and other TLDs. One thing many people are not aware of is a .co domain is seen by Google by default as a local Colombian domain; great if you want to rank well in Colombia, not so great if you wish to use it for a UK site.”
