7 Ways to Make Your Home Page a Home Run for Usability
Your home page is the single most crucial page of your site. This is the page that will be the primary entry point for a majority of your visitors. It is also the page that sets the stage for the rest of the site giving visitors a birds-eye view of who you are, what you're about, what you can do for them, what you offer, and how they get the information needed. The importance of making sure your home page is user-friendly cannot be understated. This page, more than any other, has to pull together so many elements without being overbearing or overloading the visitor with information overkill. Despite the over-reaching purpose of the home page, simplicity is the key. Provide the necessary information and usability elements and you'll lower your bounce rate and improve site conversions along the way.

Good Design Practices
Use CSS to style your page content because they save a lot of work by styling all elements on your website in one go.

Selling Effectively - The Buyer Blending System
Have you ever tried to sell a client on your property and had difficulty establishing a rapport? Have you ever emphasized something you thought important and your client responded blankly? Do you find some clients make slower (or faster) decisions than you think appropriate? Answering yes to any of these questions means that you have run across a client whose buying style is different from your selling style. To be more successful you need to learn to adapt your selling style to fit your client's buying style. By "reading" your client's behavioral style and appealing to that person in his or her terms, you can actually increase your sales dramatically.

How To Consistently Improve Your Web Site Results
Split testing is also known as A/B testing. It is the process of taking one page (your control or page A) and then creating another page (page B) with one single change and then driving equal traffic to both pages to see which page gets a better result.

The Art of the Signup Page
A site's signup page is the second most important page on a site (the most important is the home page itself) because this is where you're asking for committment. Everyone worries about the home page (and still don't do a good job), but most companies do a poor job with the signup page. For example, HAMweather's is aesthetically-challenged, and Last.fm's doesn't convey enough information. This article about signup pages by Tim Bednar is a good read. His list of important signup-page elements is:

Using Influence to Gain Commitment: Are Men and Women Really That Different?
Do men and women lead differently in the workplace? Based on much of the research, the short answer is “yes.” Although the differences often align with the stereotype that women lead with a more interpersonal style and men with a more task-oriented style, it appears that gender does play a role in leadership style and preferences.

Two Types of Women Entrepreneurs at Their Best in Relationships
While a female entrepreneur’s relationship style is bound to be as unique as her entrepreneurial style, each type of business owner can work at specific aspects of her relationship style to bring greater harmony to her life.

Small Business: The Importance Of Lead Capture
If you're putting together your website, you've probably come across the term "lead capture page" and wondered what on earth it's all about. A Lead Capture Page is often called a squeeze page and it performs a vital function. This page grabs a visitor's attention and provides fast, easily-understood benefits to encourage that person to subscribe to your email marketing list. Over time your lead capture page will provide a prospect list that you can use to market your business. This page must be designed to attract and appeal to your Target Audience. This is not only includes the graphics and layout of the page, it also includes the words and language used... Your Lead Capture page is critical - if you don't hook the reader within a few seconds, they'll move on and they general won't come back.

Use Caution When Employing Style Indicators
Style indicators are helpful at providing insights about how a leader operates. The mistake often made is to assume you cannot change your style. This article discusses some aspects of style that may help you grow in dimensions you had not considered.

Start Every Board Meeting With A Demo
I find three hour “reporting board meetings” where everyone sits around and goes through a 50 page PowerPoint deck to be tedious. When I first started investing in 1994, this was the norm. I put up with it even though it wasn’t my style because (a) I didn’t know better and (b) I didn’t have any better ideas.
