Many Web design best practices apply to single-page site design, just as they apply to more traditional sites—but there are definitely some special considerations, which are discussed in detail here...

Acworth.Biz is single-page Web sites which we offer to Acworth businesses. These extremely efficient and economical single-page Web sites, are a design approach that works very well for sites that would, in conventional terms, comprise three to six pages of closely related content. Single-page sites are becoming quite popular among Web designers—for their own sites and for client sites, as well. A brochure site for an artist, an author, or a typical restaurant, would work very well. On the other hand, the Harvard University or Library of Congress sites would not be good candidates. Single-page sites can be a good solution if there isn’t a tremendous amount of content, if all the content is closely related, or in cases where a particular design approach simply works best on a single page. In any case, single-page sites are cropping up all over the place. They are trendy and they can be very engaging—especially when combined with smooth page scrolling and some cutting edge CSS, as this page is. While smooth scrolling is very engaging, this page can also be scrolled by using your mouse wheel, the default browser scrollbars, or your keyboard's arrow keys.

The three key components of this single page site will always be "WHO" , "WHAT" , "WHERE". ( as in WWW ) That is the information you will need to provide us for placement on the page. Your web address will be similar to www.rightaround.us/YourPage except your business name will replace the words "YourPage"

The basic look of the four navigation buttons will be consistent on all Acworth.Biz pages. You may place up to 750 words describing your business and you may also include images. You should simply answer the three "W's" ; Who, What, Where in your own fashion. Then you will send that information to us in either a Word document, or a .PDF file or simply as plain text in an email. We will determine how to best configure your page for SEO to make it as well placed as possible via Google, Yahoo and other web search engines. Your page will also be added to our search index, thus making it visible via our local search on www.RightAround.Us The fee for this is $75 per year. After your page is posted, if you should desire any subsequent changes to be made, the minimum fee is $25 per half hour of work. It is reasonable to assume that, if you decided to replace all content on an existing Acworth.Biz page, and you submitted the changes to us properly arranged, we could change your entire page in approximately a half hour, or, at most, no more than one hour.

We add all of these "one page websites" to our search database which includes other local websites for businesses or local representatives. We then index everything using much the same method as the major search engines, but with our own private algorithm. There is no charge for being included in our search, but your business should be located within an approximate 15-20 mile radius of Acworth, Georgia. These "single page websites" can work very well for making local representatives of national corporations very visible to local customers.

What is Acworth.Biz? We are a method of making all local businesses visible to all local customers, via local web search.

Where it's about forward thinking which is often considerably better than backwards thinking

In thinking of the future, we believe that the amount of internet content will continue to grow at an exponential rate and filtering relevant from irrelevant content in web search results will logically become increasingly difficult. Google , Facebook, Yahoo, Bing and the new Chinese search engine, www.Baidu.Com are all competing for ad revenue generated by their engines, and this will also continue.

We ask, "Why search the entire world if you are looking for a local product or service?" We localize our search database so that it only includes websites for businesses or local representatives in the surrounding area. We index those websites using much the same method as the major search engines, but with our own private algorithm. There is no charge for being included in our search but your business must be located within an approximate 15-20 mile radius of Acworth, Georgia.

Another added benefit of RightAround.Us search is that we include your SEO score in our search results. This allows you and/or your webmaster to study your ranking as compared to others for any given search criteria. While our algorithm may not be an exact match for Google or Yahoo, if you polish your SEO with us, it can certainly help you with the big boys.

Some things to keep in mind

When planning your site, it's important to limit the amount of your content because it all needs to load at one time. Four to six separate content areas or "pages" seem to be about the norm for many single-page sites.

The amount of content in each section should be sufficient to fill a maximized browser window running at high resolution. You may want to consider the visible area your visitors likely see within their browser. Crafting your sections to fit comfortably within that space can minimize scrolling while viewing individual sections. Keep in mind that the smooth scroll is designed to scroll the page up so that the target heading is at the top of the window, which means that your last section should have sufficient content to allow it to scroll all the way to the top. If that's not possible, all you need to do is to assign the last section a large amount of padding on the bottom. Don't worry about small screen users having to scroll within sections. Remember, we are not hiding the browser's scroll bars—they are still usable, as are mouse wheels and arrow keys.
