How do I make a splash page?

Well I am wanting to make a splash page  so would like  a lot of information about them so I can make a good one or good starter one and thank you in advance.

To make sure we're on the same page, do you mean a "splash page" as in a "graphic/whizbang rich, look what I can do style, first thing the visitor sees" page?
The best advice I can offer if that's what you mean is: Don't do it.
The days of the "splash page" are far behind us now. If you want the best possible rankings in the search engines, don't use up your most valuable website real estate on something the search engines can't see or ignore intentionally. Don't force your visitors to have to "go through all of that again" just to get to your actual content when they come back to your site.
Your home page should be filled with keyword rich AND relevant html text (not blocks of spammy keywords) so search engines have something to sink their teeth into. If you want to show off, make a portfolio section on your site and put all your "look what I can do" info and ideas there.

    You can do this using a meta refresh but the problem is you have to add it to the html file for the page very time you publish changes.
    A better way is to create a splash page and upload it to the server outside of the folder produced by iWeb. Example HERE.
    The meta refresh is added to the head section of the html file...
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="32;url=http://www.domain.about.com/Page-Name.html">
    The delay time in seconds is marked in blue and the URL to the redirect page is in red.

  • How can I make a decorative page border in Pages?

    How can I make a decorative page border in Pages?

    Hi Janet,
    I suppose that you are asking how to include a decorative border of your design into a pages document. How you design that border is rather out of the range of these discussions. So, let's say that you have a graphic that approximates a picture frame and has the required dimensions to frame your content.
    If you want to have the graphic appear on every page, Drag or Insert > Choose, to incorporate your design in to the document. The position it as you want it, and then Arrange > Send to Background and Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master.
    If there is more than one section in your document, there may be more considerations, but if you do this at the outset in the creation of your document, the design of the first section will flow to subsequent sections.
    Regards,
    Jerry

  • How do I make a facebook page with a premade template? [was:help]

    how do I make a facebook page with a premade template i bought on etsy? I have asked this 10 times now In all diffrent section here. I guess I dont even know how to ask a question in photo shop?? I am very glad I am only on the trial. This is soooo NOT user friendly!

    Tip for a forum newbie: please use a descriptive subject header to post your query so we have some idea of what your question relates to.
    "Help" tells us nothing. Try "how do I make a facebook page with a premade template?"
    You've posted this question 3 times in 3 different forums but we've no idea which Adobe software you're using or where your template is from. There is a reply in the Photoshop forum asking for more information.

  • Adobe pro - print settings: How do i make a custom page size list, which i can copy to my other comp

    Adobe pro - print settings: How do i make a custom page size list, which i can copy to my other computers who have adobe pro installed?

    your right.. i ment acrobat pro :-)
    my problem is that i use the PDF printer to export CAD drawings as PDF´s.
    As it is now, there are some pre-defined page sizes in the print settings, and i know i can add custom pages manually one at a time.
    What i want is to copy the list of my danish standard page sizes, and use them on my other versions of acrobat.
    Its like 70 different sizes, and i have them made manually on my current computer, but i hope its possible to copy the list to other computers.
    Maby its some script where i can define the sizes, and then copy to another computer. Im just not that much of a computer genius :-)
    Hope i got through this without to many spelling mistakes...
    Thanks for helping.

  • How can I make two half page documents?

    I have a full page flyer.  I want to make it half page with two flyers.  I tried making two columns and cutting the page in half, but the borders are wrong.  How can I make two half page documents?

    You can do it with columns, just make the gutter twice the width of the outside margins.
    However being a Flyer why not just create one on the left using Textbooks and Shapes then group that and option shift drag it sideways to the right to make a copy on the right?

  • How do I make a multiple page pdf?

    Hi
    I need to put about eight screenshots into one single PDF file.  In other words I want to make an eight page PDF from eight .PNGs.
    How can I do this?  Is this possible with normal OSX tools like Preview or "Print as PDF"?   Or do I have to drag them into MS Word or Powerpoint or something?
    Thanks
    Marcus

    Thanks Stefan.  That did the trick. 
    Although in my case it wasn't the OP on that MacWorld link, but one of the user comments further down the page that gave the answer.  I couldn't make documents by dragging icons onto eachother as the OP described - didn't work. Instead - it was almost easier: 
    1. Open all docs in one Preview window.
    2. Select all those documents in the Sidebar  (Cmd A). 
    3. Use File Print Selected Images (Op Cmd P)
    4. Print as PDF

  • How do I make a scrapbook page layout in PSE8?

    I cannot seem to get the separate layers to show up in a layers box.  I knew how to do this in PSE6.
    There must be something new that I am not aware of.  Does anyone know how to do this.

    When i am in edit mode, i
    make a background page.  Then when
    i drag a photo onto it.  That photo will not become a new layer.
    The layers palet does not even open.  I try to do new layer and nothing happens.

  • How do I make all the pages in the document to be the same dimension?

    I have created a new PDF by merging several files together.  How do I make pages to be all the same dimension?

    Acrobat takes your files and merges them together, and uses the original dimensions of each document for the finished PDF file. I recommend changing the page size of the original document before converting to PDF.

  • How to I make all the pages in a Pages document into pages, not sections, to I can drag specific pages around and place them where I need them? When I try to drag a specific page, it drags an entire section.

    How to I convert all the pages in a Pages document into simply pages, eliminating pages called "sections", so I can pick and chose specific pages to drag where I want (without dragging an entire section of pages)?

    Insert a Section Break at the foot of each page
    or:
    Toolbar > Document > Document > uncheck Document Body
    This will destroy any content in your document, but I presume that is what you want.
