How You Can Make Your Web Sites Make More Money… With Ease
(Special 30%-Off Offer)

Most people who come to most sites give up without getting what they came for. That costs web site owners billions every year.

What concerns me is that the reason why most sites fail is not from lack of cleverness or creativity. (In fact, it's usually the reverse.)

I have been designing web sites for over 15 years, and have seen thousands of examples of what works - and what fails. These experiences have taught me a simple approach to web design that produces results time after time.

Simple Techniques to Make Your Sites More Effective

I would like to pass that approach on to you, so that you can apply the principles and boost your web site's profits. That's why I wrote "Save the Pixel", my simple guide to web sites that work.

"Save the Pixel" gives you a clear step-by-step guide you can apply today to make your web site more effective.

New! Second Edition

The second edition of “Save the Pixel” includes even more info and examples to show you exactly how to transform your web sites today.

You don't need to be a designer to get the benefit of this book. If you are a site owner, web developer, or responsible for your organisation's web site, “Save the Pixel” will help you to succeed.

Simplicity is the Key

The "Save the Pixel" approach shows that simplicity is the key to your web site's success. We have proved that simple web designs can consistently deliver better results.

One of the key insights of the book is "Success is a function of attention divided by stuff". Attention is a fairly finite resource, but we can do a lot about stuff. Reduce the unnecessary stuff on your pages, and you'll increase success.

Most web sites are designed to please the person who did the design - not the person who has to use the site. They include content and design that may be appealing, but do nothing to help conversion if they draw attention away from the elements that lead to success.

Any stuff that is added to a site that does not directly support the site's goals by helping serve visitors will decrease the site's effectiveness.

When done effectively, simple web design lets you guide your visitors' attention to the clues that tell them they're in the right place. It shows them exactly where to go next to find what they want, with minimal distraction.

It keeps them focused on the content (not the packaging of the content) and on the next steps you offer them.

A Word of Caution!

But let me offer a word of caution: The simple approach is only effective when the right elements are included in the right way.

The 11 chapters of "Save the Pixel" will lead you through my comprehensive process for creating simple sites that works every time.

I'll explain how you can:

• Look at your web site through the eyes of a first-time visitor
• Work quickly and maximize your effectiveness when making changes
• Really understand what your visitors need to see - and what they don't need!
• Choose what to include and what to exclude
• Discover compelling win-win propositions
• Make every page instantly shout out "Yes! You're in the right place!"
• Arrange content for maximum effectiveness
• Choose the right navigation options that make your site easier to use
• Master the 7 key design factors that help you manage your visitors' attention
• Increase readability to make your site accessible to everyone

"Save Hundreds of $$$"

Here's what just one reviewer said.

If you are doing anything online, or are considering it, then Save the Pixel will be some of the most valuable stuff you'll ever read.

If you're just getting started and don't have a site yet, Ben's insights will save you a lot of time and hundreds of dollars in unnecessary design dead ends and fancy dysfunctional sites.

The Secrets of Making a Successful Web Site

There are lots of books on marketing, SEO, usability, and graphic design techniques, but "Save the Pixel" is the first that pulls together all the most important techniques into a simple guide for site owners and designers.

The great news is, we've discovered through designing hundreds of web sites and running dozens of experiments that the things that make web sites really work are actually quite simple. Not only are the core skills simpler than you might think, I truly believe that you can make really effective web sites - without being a graphic design wizard!

In fact, most web sites lose visitors through the same simple mistakes, which actually make it harder for your visitors to engage with your brand, and less likely they'll find what they want.

"Save the Pixel" was written to help you avoid making those mistakes, resulting in a site that works for your customers, and really supports your business goals.

Hundreds of Simple Techniques to Maximize Your Web Site's Conversion Rate

"Save the Pixel" is both a simple design philosophy and a comprehensive toolkit of easy-to-use techniques that increase your web site's success, and which any site owner can apply successfully.

Through a series over 20 full web redesign case studies, I present a complete set of vital pixel-saving principles.

My tutorials, notes, and "before & after" snapshots of each site redesign clearly show where pixels are so often wasted and what you can do to save them, without sacrificing appeal.

The results… clear and appealing web sites that people like to use - every time!

“Save the Pixel is the best book on web design and usability I've ever read, and one of the best books on internet marketing in general.

If you're sending traffic to your web site via Google AdWords and you haven't discovered the strategies and tactics in Save the Pixel, I guarantee you're throwing away money.

“It's not just information, but a systematic way of designing a site for your customers rather than your web designer's online portfolio.

Save The Pixel v1 was my favourite e-book of all time, so I'm looking forward to starting on version 2 which promises to be a cracker :) Keep up the great work!
