So is iWeb worthless for a business???

It seems that an iWeb site for a business would be counter productive since iWeb renders all the text as .png's. It seems that search engines won't do an adequate service for business web sites???
Is there some work around for this problem??? I would like to use iWeb but will probably switch do to this search engine problem?
Correct me if I am wrong? I really want to use iWeb??
thanks,
mark

Thanks for the input so far. I did do a search last night looking for a work-around for the search engine issue. I fell asleep sometime during my search. I was unable to find any work-around to my original question.
I will do another search later, but if anyone off the top of their head knows a work-around I would greatly appreciate it.
The web site that I did is http://www.warrguitars.com I like the presentation that iWeb gives me. I also like the blog and podcast features. Yes I had to do some work arounds but so far I have that under control.
As far as the .png and IE issue, I found iWeb Optimizor which changes .png's to jpg's. I will check that out.
Now if only I can get the search engines to see text or something???
Thanks,
mark

  • Iweb ok for small business website???

    Hi all : ) I have no html experience and was considering paying a pro to make me a website for my business project. Then I heard about Iweb: quick and easy, perfect! I got the program and been messing with it and it is a snap. However, I can't seem to come up with anything that makes me go WOW! Perhaps it due to my lack of creativity, experience, or limitations of the program, I am not sure.
    So my question is do you think Iweb is appropriate for developing a professional looking website, and if so, where could I find some examples of business sites that were produced with Iweb? Or, should I go in another direction?
    Thanks!

    PayPal is a great way to integrate secure payments into an iWeb site. That's the payment method that's used on http://iWebFAQ.com/PayPal. Adding PayPal to your iWeb site requires html file editing of your after Publishing. Fortunately there are many resources that will help you learn to integrate Paypal into your site. http://iWebUserSites.com is a comprehensive list of sites created with iWeb. Search through iWebUserSites.com and see what kind of business techniques/designs are included there.
    Good Luck :^)

  • IWeb vs. RapidWeaver for small business web site development

    I am going to develop a web site for our small tour business that would contain descriptive text, pictures, testimonials, and an e-mail link that cannot be swept by bots. I have been scouring the forums about iWeb 2.0 and am hearing that there are a number of factors that limit it's suitability for a commercial web site. I would appreciate some feedback on the following points.
    1. Would using an iWeb 2.0 template cause display problems on a PC running Internet Explorer; Microsoft does not follow approved web standards?
    2. I would want search engines to find and index our site so that people could find it using Google or Yahoo. I understand that .Mac blocks access by spiders, but you can manually list your site with Google. Is this true?
    3. I want to use our domain name in the e-mail address, is this possible with iWeb?
    4. I would also like to use my .Mac account to host a site about my grandchildren using the iWeb generated URL, this doesn't seem possible if I have listed my business domain name.
    5. Does anyone have any experience using RapidWeaver? This seems to be very iWeb like and may be a better solution for a small business.
    6. Should I just use iWeb for the grandkids and RapidWeaver for the business, I have never written an line of code in my life and need something that is truly WYSIWYG.
    Thank you for your feedback!

    Hi There, I'll give you my info based on what I know and i'm sure otheres will correct me where they have other experiences....
    1. all websites have niggles regardless of what program you use to create them with, iWeb sites are pretty good for compatibility, but as with any site, the more 'stuff' you add, fancy code or funny image types there wil lbe a number of people who have problems. I've found iWeb to be far less troublesome than sites generated from scratch using other programs, even dreamweaver (i'm a graphic designer).
    2. dunno about .mac blocking stuff, but i've done commercial sites for clients that I've submitted to Google and they show up just fine when searched for.
    3. e-mail address can be ANYTHING. for example you could even put a link to send me mail if you wanted. it is literally just a link to open someones mail program and add a mail address / subject ready for them to send.
    4. You can set iWeb / .Mac to use a specific address that you have purchased. and you can have multiple domains from within iWeb.you can't directly publish sites to more than one address, but you can publish to folders and upload to different addresses, or if you make more than one site in iWeb, the first in th elist will become the one that your browser goes to using th emain address (www.yourdomin.com), but you'd stil lbe able to have other sites with their own sub address (www.yourdomain.com/grandkids) for example. you can even add password protection to different sites so your clients don't see photos of you and the grandkids lounging in the garden the day you said you were doing their job!
    5. I can happily use Flash Dreamweaver, iWeb and plenty of other stuff, but found Rapidweaver to be a poor version of iWeb. It has certain benfits, but it is nowhere near as user friendly. I'd start with iWeb regardless, and see how you get on. Plenty of people have trouble enough with iWeb and it's basically a no-brainer compared to anything else out there - (short of yahoo webbuilder (pretty good for freebie!)
    Just beware of the iWeb templates, they are getting very well known and don't lend themsleves to looking very professional. but use iWeb as a program to put together a simple site and it is easy to use and gets pretty tidy results. see here for simple site done with iWeb without using templates, and resulting in a more pro look and doesn't look like everyone elses site.
    http://www.garethmorris.com
    6. if you've never even tried editing HTML you want iWeb i promise you. it really is the best for starting offf with, and like i say if you design your own site rather than just using the templates without changing stuff you can get some good results - and quickly / easily.

  • IWeb site for selling my books

    I'm an author who is selling my books on an old web site where my Merchant account provided HTML snippits to create a shopping basket where customers can buy my books. When they put in their credit card data it transfers the $ to my bank account, and I get an email and ship my books to them.
    I have created a new iWeb site to replace the old one on NetWork solutions at my domaine www.deepwaterspress.com and do not know how to put my merchant account HTML snippits into my iWeb site on Mobile me. Please advise. Thanks,
    Harold Lyon

    Harold ~ Welcome to the discussions. The MobileMe Terms of Service states:
    "The Service is designed for personal individual use and is not intended to be used for commercial business purposes, including, but not limited to, transacting online sales or software distribution via an e-commerce site."
    The addition of an HTML Snippet is briefly shown in this video tutorial:
    http://www.apple.com/findouthow/web/iweb08.html#livecontent
    An alternative to HTML Snippets is to hyperlink from your iWeb site to a free e-commerce page at Weebly — see the video here:
    http://blog.weebly.com/2/post/2009/05/announcing-weebly-e-commerce-features.html
    If that's suitable, you may even want to consider building your entire site in Weebly.
    By the way, a tip... Instead of posting your site's URL like this:
    www.deepwaterspress.com
    ...include the prefix like this:
    http://www.deepwaterspress.com
    ...then it will be easily clickable in your post. And before posting, you can switch from Compose mode to Preview mode to verify that the hyperlink actually goes to your site when clicked.

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

  • Crystal Reports background processing for SAP Business One 8.8

    Dear Partners,
    I have an SDK program developed in SAP Business One SDK that works in 2007, it calls crystal reports externally and can be executed as a background task using the windows schedular or from the command prompt.
    My problem is it does not work under SAP Business One SDK 2008 PL18 with SQL Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008.
    I receive the following message after this line in my code,"oReport.PrintToPrinter(CopyNo, False, 0, 0)".
    'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.LogOnException: Logon failed.
    Error in File XX_Report_Ver_0.01 {1A6620A2-5D73-49D2-9347-32ED068AA64E}.rpt:

    My Question is what Crystal Reports libraries or other method should I be using ?
    Crystal Reports 2008 for SAP Business One eg. 51038978.zip - downloaded from portal obviously dosn't contain the CrystalDecisions libraries.
    Crystall Reports 2008 - cr2008_sp3_fullbuild, cr2008fp33.exe, cr2008fp33_mm, cr2008fp33_clickonce - also download from the portal, the cr2008_sp3_fullbuild does contain the crystal decisions libraries.
    Finally other choices are crystal reports included with the visual studio 2008 and crystal reports full version direct from Business Objects.
    I have tried different versions of crystal decision libraries- eg, 12.0110 or 12.02 but still no joy.
    Also if I manage to get the report to fire what should the client be running eg, if they have the Crystal Reports 2008 for Business One do they also need to install the Crystal Reports Run time - cr2008fp33_clickonce.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi John
    Since the SDK works in 2007 it will be using the OLD DB access method.
    Change the Crystal report to use an OLE DB datasource rather than the SAP Business One data source.

  • GR/IR Automatic Clearing for Different Business areas items

    Hello All,
         we have different business areas, and some times we create a PO for all business areas and invoice it in a specific business area
    in F.13 automatic clearing:
    for GR/IR account
    Documents with different business area cannot be cleared.
    any idea to solve this issue is appreciated,

    Thanks for your reply,
    I've tried such a solution with more parameters ( EBELN, XREF3 and EBELP)
    but in F.13 :
    - the document cannot be cleared when >>> selecting GR/IR account special process.
    if we treat GR account as a normal GL account, I mean without selecting GR/IR account special process.
    the document can be clear
    i want to be able to clear the document with selecting GR/IR field ( is it possible )
    and if it is not allowed, do we will face a problem by clearing GR account without selecting GR/IR parameter ??
    Many Thanks

  • Add-Ins menu not visible in Crystal report for Sap Business One

    Hi,
    I have installed the Crystal Report Design for Sap Business One on my customer server.
    But when I open the Crystal Report I can't see the Add-Ins menu to put the rpt directly on my Sap Business One.
    I have installed it on many customer, but only with this I have this type of problem.
    There is some restriction on Sap Version/Patches or Authorization Users or some check that I have to set on Sap or on Crystal Report?

  • Error while 'Crystal Report for Sap Business One' addon started

    Hi,
    I have try to install Crystal Report for Sap Business One (Addon Versione number 2.0.0.7).
    The installatione finish succesfully, but when I started the addOn i retrieve this errore message: External Connection to the dataBase failed. Sap Crystal Addon may not function properly. Please re-run the account setup with superuser login.
    I'm logged in Sap with manager (super user), so maybe I have forgot some step in the installation?
    I have see the Demo in the Channel Partner Portal, I have note that I have to isntall the CR_Runtime_12_0, but I don't find it, I don't know where I can download this file. I have just installed SapCrystalSetup.exe and registered the Addon like a normal Sap B1 addon.
    Where is the error??
    Regards
    Marco

    You must configure in each cliente Pc the connection with the DATABASE.
    You must Know the Database Super User (In SQL Server usually sa, and its password, the standard form SAP Business One is SAPB1Admin)
    In Administration > Crystal Reports Administration > Account Setup
    The CR_Runtime_12_0 is only necesary to view reports, but isn't necesary to start de addon.

  • Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow

    Hi expert,
    i need your help!!
    i have configured the "Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow" with the tnx SWNADMIN and this was successful. I can write emails, but i can read this only on SAP GUI with the tnx SOST. I don't receive email on my email-address.
    can you say me, where is the problem?
    Thank you in advance
    marcel

    Hi Marcel
    Rope in your Basis Guy!
    Basically, your Extended notif part is working fine..... emails reaching SOST is proof. Going out of SAP may need basis config.
    What do you see, a yellow triangle or a red light in SOST?

  • Can there be more than one transport targets for a business system in sld

    Hi All,
    I have a question about transport targets in sld for sap xi 3.0 sp19.
    We have a requirement where a business system needs to have two transport targets.In SLD i see that only one transport target can be assigned. Is there any way to assign more than one transport target to a business system?
    I know that there can be more than one source for a business system where more than one  different business systems have the same business system as the target.
    I am not sure if a business system can have more than one transport target .If yes , what is the way to add more than one ?
    Please help .
    Thanks,
    Padmaja

    Hello,
    I know that there can be more than one source for a business system where more than one different business systems have the same business system as the target.
    As far as I know, you would have to change the target everytime you will transport it to a different target e.g 3 target systems = 3 times you change the transport target in SLD.

    Mark

  • I just bought a second iPhone for my business... I used my existing apple account and now all my texts are coming to both phones.. How do I get a secondary apple ID and change it on my business phone?

    I used my existing apple ID when I purchased a second iPhone for my business.. Now all my texts are coming to both phones.. Is there a way to create a new apple account for my business phone and if so.. How do I delete one and add another?

    Yes, you can have two separate Apple IDs, and it's pretty easy to set this up. Go into Settings > iTunes & App Store on your business phone. You should see your current Apple ID. Tap on it, then tap on sign out. You can then create a new Apple ID, using a different email address and password than those associated with the Apple ID on your other phone. Log back in using this new information, and you shouldn't get the texts that come to your other phone.
    Hope this helped!
