You want a website. You want a website that reaches your unique audience. In this post I want to give you a list of the top ways to help your visitors find your website. We'll cover some search engine technical talk, but I want to keep it at a minimum. This list is about reaching your target audience. With the tips below I want to help you with that, and tell you what really matters.

Simply defined, the URL is the entire address of what you are viewing in your web browser. It is found in your browser's address bar. It is important to your developer because it helps them to know precisely where you are encountering an issue or problem on your website, and it also helps point the developer in the direction of how they can solve the problem for you.

Let's look at an image of a website in a browser to see what we're talking about.

When you want to discuss what you're seeing on your computer or website, the best way to share it is by sharing a picture of your screen or the browser window. People use different words for this, but they all are the same thing: print screen, screen shot, screen capture or screen grab. There are a few ways you can do it.

When you publish a news item (story) to your home page in Drupal, it is pretty simple. The text creates a teaser on the home page, and that helps to lead visitors in to see the rest of the story as well as other parts of your web site. Very often, though, the break in the text happens at the wrong place. Maybe you'd like to customize how much of your text shows on the home page. Here's how you do it.

While editing a Drupal story or page, you'll undoubtedly reach a point where you want to add an image. There are a few modules that can be used to insert and manage images differently, but I'd like to provide some steps for how to add an image using the image insert module we frequently use in our Drupal websites. Before adding an image, you should have some familiarity with creating and editing a story or page and your images should already be optimized to be the size you want them on the page.

First, begin with editing your page or story.

Clients often ask how they can change the title of their Drupal website. The title is the text that appears at the very top of your browser "chrome". It is indexed by search engines and helps the search engines to know what your site is basically about. Occasionally site owners want to adjust a word or two and add or take away a keyword. To do this, you will need to have access to the administration area of your Drupal website and probably need to be a site administrator. Here's how:

The change of seasons has coincided with a number of accomplishments for Lucidus this year.

Where should I start? Our first accomplishment is a big one. We have moved our Lucidus headquarters in New Hampshire to another, larger location in the heart of Keene, at Colony Mill Marketplace.

Holy cow! Cedarcrest Center for Children with Disabilities has given us an award! You heard right, Neil Giarratana (our distinguished president) and the rest of the Lucidus team have been awarded the 2007 Cedarcrest Center Champion Award.

Now if you really want to read the press release, please go right ahead. But here in the blog I want to take a few minutes from my own point of view to toot our horn a bit -- we deserve it! Cedarcrest says so!

I'm so excited –– once again our very talented team of developers has been recognized by our peers to be on the cutting edge of development.

Speaking geek to geek is a great way for our team to share our experiences with others, which in the end helps us all to leverage our collective experiences on a GLOBAL level.

CFUnited Europe, a Coldfusion development conference "run by developers, for developers" announced this month that Chaz Chumley, an Application Developer at Lucidus, will speak at the conference.

This month Lucidus has joined Chamber South, a business group in South Miami. One of my goals this year is to become a more familiar face to businesses in Miami and South Florida in general. It seems to me that being part of Chamber South and other business groups will be an important part of that.
