Website Design and Facebook Ecommerce
Brian DeKoningTuesday, July 14, 2009 14:09Two cool links we saw on Twitter today: First is about effectively planning your website design from start to finish. This gives a few good examples and a step-by-step process. They go into balancing good navigation with design.
Second cool link is from Inside Facebook and about Facebook Pages evolving into ecommerce portals. This is a good answer for the question on how Facebook can help your business. Threadless is just a cool company anyway, but they are using Facebook in a great way by constantly keeping people involved in addition to generating all of their products from their community. Also, check out what 1800FLOWERS is doing to sell flowers right from their Facebook page.
I wanted to put both of these into a blog post rather than just retweeting them because they’re two important things for you to check out – and this post will show up on Twitter anyway.

Hi Horace, Thanks for your question. For a small business, a Facebook page can be an effective online presence even if you don’t have a website. To have a quality FB page for business, make sure these things are clear either by using traditional FB tabs such as ‘info’ and ‘notes’ or through custom FBML page(s): 1. How your fans can contact you; 2. What you do. 3. How to buy your services/products. Thanks for the comment! Feel free to contact us to learn more. http://www.vtldesign.com
