+1 for “Ogilvy on Advertising” – great ideas to be found in this book. Ogilvy tests everything and questions everything, the same way we should online.

I realized I quoted the whole part. Sorry. I just meant to quote the “badly-resized” bit.

I am just so glad I checked in on my twitter fee minutes ago! If not, I would have missed this very insightful article. I am about to launch my own website later (might need to delay it a bit now) and just finishing the images for the about page. Now I am going to re-think what to put in there and organize the images on my portfolio.

Thank you so much for this!

Btw, you might want to check this article on a smartphone. Coz it ironic reading this “Poor quality images of any kind—better to not show anything than to show something pixelated, over-compressed, badly resized, of a low resolution, or otherwise shoddy-looking.” is not being applied to this page.

[...] Only use images that convey value more clearly than copy can. That way, you’ll never be a slave to your designer’s whims, or whatever fashions are currently in vogue. [...]

Hey Ken, glad you found the article useful.

By “left margin” I mean literally the left margin of your body copy. You can of course have other elements to the left of your body copy itself — the important thing is that the beginning of each line of the copy falls along the same vertical line. Hope this helps!

Thank you for a well written and informative article! I will soon be re-doing my website http://www.OldHouseGuy.com and from what I read it needs some help bad.

One part I am a bit confused on is the left margin. Maybe this sounds stupid but do you mean the far left of the page or the left of the content area. My site has a left column with a menu and ads and to the right is my content – which is left aligned. Is it better to move that column with the menu to the right?

I’ve been reading about the zig zag and “F” reading and getting more confused but this article makes most sense.

thanks, Ken
