What’s where on Semiomantics XO
When designing a new website or blog, the question is “What’s where on Semiomantics XO” – if that’s the WordPress based super Search Engine efficient script you are working with. Especially if you are not yet too familiar with Coding… and your eyes get dizzy from html and css and php and div’s here and classes there… then it’s good to have a visual image of where some of the main parts you are working with are and how they are addresed in terms of calls or commands.
What’s where on Semiomantics XO
When you look at my Frontpage here by clicking on HOME then it’s quite easy to see that what’s where on Semiomantics XO is clearly between the header and the footer – that’s all!
Well, let’s look at the sketch I did above and we see the dark-violet background on which the website basically sits. The background – or background image can be easily inserted in Semiomantics XO 2011.
The red frame indicates the body – basically the whole space covered by the website or blog. I also added the div tags one needs to get familiar with rather quick.
All websites consist basically for three parts:
- A header
- A footer
- The Main Content inbetween.
So while each part can contain a multitude of features and functions, let’s stick to our simple model above:
The footer at the bottom is rather easy. Normally it contains the Copyright Notice, however, there is also space for advertising and additional information.
The header at the top is easy too – if one remembers that here the header contains also the big slider we are using at the top instead of say a logo or a header image, as well as the main navigation bar. The header could be very minute as well, containing just a small company logo and the menu (navigation bar) – but in our example the header is rather generous and forms an attractive and dynamic announcement and advertising part of the website.
Please note that the BLOG is reached via the menu – and has a different display – very spiffy stuff possible on Semiomantics XO since WordPress 3… but one needs to get one’s head around it!
Part of the content in our example is a very attractive Image Bar – and, actually within the extended Footer area – the bottombar that allows for advertising space or the insertion of widgets.
Learn Coding Skills
All this presses us to learn Coding Skills as today we predominantly encounter a mix of html and php. Having a visual idea of what’s where on our Semiomantics Scripts helps us to know what needs to be eliminated if we want to work in a reduced way, as I did on my Homepage if compared with the Blogpage. Semiomantics XO offers a wealth of different possibilities that need to be exploited either for own usage or for our customers; they can look forward to highly customized and optimized Websites and Blogs. This is the ideal combination as our results on Google Top 10 proove all the time. . .
And so the journey continues . . .
