The Benefits of Detailing

Most people who get their car detailed do so for the reason that it makes the car look good. No doubt, a clean, shiny car gets attention. Have you ever noticed how your car even seems to drive better after a good detailing? Besides making the car look good, there are other important reasons why your car should be detailed on a regular basis. Here are 3 main areas of the car that benefit from car detailing:
1. Paint: The paint of a car is it's protective barrier. Besides that, it's the personality of the car. It says the most about that car and about the owner of the car. However, without proper washing and waxing, the paint is the first to show signs of neglect such as fading, cracking, and peeling. Regular waxing is important to protect the finish from ultraviolet rays from the sun which is the main reason for paint deterioration. You can usually tell if your car needs to be waxed by feeling the paint. If it no longer feels slick and has a "squeak" to the paint, it probably needs a coat of wax. A proper detailing always includes a wax job.
2. Wheels: The wheels and tires get all the road grime. Obviously, they are what make the car go down the road. Besides accumulating brake dust, they are exposed to dirt, water, oils, tar, salt and all other debris that manages to gather on the road. People invest a lot of money on wheels and tires alone. Corrosion from road grime build up on wheels can erode and pit the finish and ruin an expensive investment. Thoroughly washing the wheels and tires weekly and using special protective wheel wax can extend the look and life of them considerably and is an important part of the car detailing process.
3. Interior: Whether the interior is leather, fabric or vinyl, it is important to have the interior regularly cleaned and detailed. This extends the life of the interior by keeping leather seats soft and supple, keeps vinyl free from stains and cracking, and keeps fabric seats from fading, stains, and tears. Applying protective agents on the dashboard keeps it from fading and cracking. This is where the driver spends all of his time. A clean, fresh interior is just more pleasant for driver and passengers.
A car that has been regularly detailed will hold it's resale value because it shows that it has been well cared for.

HOMEPAGE WEB DESIGN ADVICE

Home Page Advice
It’s common sense that the home page is the most important page on your web site. Most of your new visitors will enter your site through the home page. Your main priority for the home page is to make sure it gives new visitors a great first impression of your site and business. If you fail with your first impression, a lot of visitors will leave and most likely never to return.
Below are a few tips on how to make a great first impression with your home page.

The First 3 Seconds Count The Most
You only have about three seconds to give your new visitors a great first impression of your site and business. If the visitor is not impressed, they may leave your site forever and not return. Everyone knows first impressions matter. Many studies of human behaviour have shown that we decide if we like or not like something, or someone, in the first few seconds we are presented with it.

Site Identity
Your home page must quickly convey:
  • Website name
  • What the website is about

Main Navigation
The primary navigational cues on a website are usually the links at the very top of each page. They give a quick overview of the website's content. The links should link to the main categories of the web site and be worded in such a way that they are all self-explanatory.
Many people confuse the primary navigational links with the local navigation links. Local navigation links are links to web site pages within a category and are usually displayed on the left side of sub-pages

Fresh Content
You should offer fresh content on your website at a regular interval as we are in the information age. This will encourage people to return to your website on a regular basis.
New content should always be promoted on the home page and in the blog.

The Importance Of Search
A search engine is one of the most popular functions on any web site, which is why it is so popular to see search functionality on the home page. Your websites search engine should only search your site, not other websites around the Web, unless that is exactly the service you're providing your users.

 Advertising
Websites that rely on advertising to bring in sales need to have prime space set aside for its sponsors. Usually,  the best real estate is usually on the home page and "above-the-fold" (visible without having to scroll down the page).
Even though you may need to show adverts, the home page has to still download quickly.

GREAT WEB DESIGN TIPS

Design Tips

Easy-to-use Web sites don't just suddenly create themselves over-night. You must focus on its potential users from the start, and checking at each step of the development with its intended users to be sure they will like and be comfortable with the final design.

 

Create a Clear Visual Hierarchy

Organize and prioritize the page contents by using size, prominence and content relationships.
  • Size: The more important a headline is, the larger its font size should be. This is often referred to at the H1. Big bold headlines help to grab the user's attention as they scan the Web page for information.
  • Prominence: The more important the headline or content, the closer to the top of the page it should be placed. The most important or popular content should always be positioned prominently near the top of the page, so users can view it without having to scroll too far down the web page.
  • Content Relationships: Group similar content types by displaying the content in a similar visual style, or in a clearly defined area so users become familiar of what to look for. 

Break Up Pages into Defined Areas

Recent studies have shown that Internet users decide which part of a page are most likely to be of interest to them and ignore the rest.
Experience tells us where advertising banners and buttons are usually positioned on a Web page and we have learned to ignore those parts of the page as though they do not exist.
It is not recommend to include hidden advertisements with content. This may seem like a clever marketing ploy, and it does improve click though rates however users will get frustrated if they constantly end up on an advertiser's Web site, when they thought a link leads to more free information.

 

Use Standard Conventions

It’s always best to try following standard conventions. A convention that has been developed on the Internet over time is having the navigation bar at the top or left side of the page.
It does make more sense to have the main navigational hyperlinks on the right side of the page next to the scroll bar. This way, we wouldn't have to play tennis with our mouse. However, somebody had the bright idea of adding the main navigation links to the left side of the page and then other Web site designers had an even brighter idea of copying it! If you tried to change this convention by placing the main navigational links anywhere else, it could easily confuse most users and look wrong.
Other standard Internet conventions include:
  • Blue underlined hyperlinks
  • Breadcrumb trails
  • Bottom of page navigation text links

Take Great Care Of Your Vehicle

In April 2014, a report published by IBIS World (Car Wash & Auto Detailing in the US: Market Research Report) revealed the revenue of the auto detailing industry in the United States to be worth over $9 billion! It is quite clear from this report that car detailing is anything but your regular soap wash.
Let us briefly survey the steps a rigorous process of car detailing does require:
(1) The first step includes taking out the upholstery, mats, etc from the interior and thorough vacuuming of every available inch. Each of the items taken out must be cleaned separately. Carpets and upholstery, particularly costlier ones will require special treatments.
(2) Removal of holes and blemishes of mats and carpets are part of the process. All items are dried completely before restoration. Otherwise damp articles become happy hunting grounds for fungi. A non–slip dressing is put in place under the brake / accelerator pedal for obvious reasons. The dashboard undergoes cleaning using compressed air and special types of brushes.
The same applies for air ventilators, which are cleaned with microfiber cloth and then polished gently to give a shiny look.
(3) Shampooing off the nylon products is done. Special care is taken to clean the glasses, particularly the tinted ones, to avoid scratches.
(4) Cleaning up the exterior is as much a meticulous process as the interior. Parts like wheel rims, tire and other non-metallic components are sanitized multiple times before polishing off with various specially formulated liquids.
If you are have preference for a matte over a glossy look or vice versa you will have to select your polishing materials and methods of polishing the surfaces accordingly. Electronic components are wrapped into waterproof sheets of paper as per necessity.
(5) If you care for your car paints then you must use car wash soaps and leave alone the regular detergents or shampoos during car detailing. Do not let the soap air dry, instead, clean with chamois or very soft cloth to avoid any bubble mark. At this stage removing the previous wax, polishing and removing the polish before reapplying of the protective wax needs to be done.
The whole process of car detailing is rounded off with buffing the engine. It goes without saying that following a careful process of car detailing extends the longevity of your vehicle. Experts recommend the process to be followed three to four times a year. Remember, driving a gleaming car around makes you feel great!

IMPROVE YOUR WEB DESIGN

Usability is often defined as ‘a quality attribute that assesses how easy user interfaces are to use.’ There are certain best web design practices that promote ease of use, an excellent retention rate and high end-user satisfaction. Below are five tips to help you with better usability on your website:.Intuitive navigation
There are certain design principles that every designer will follow no matter which company or industry their client is from. Navigation learned behaviour – users want to move from website to website seamlessly and find the information they require very quickly and easily. It is best practice that users only ever have to navigate three levels to find the information they require.

Easy to read content

Writing for the web is different to print media. Generally, people often have more time to read a magazine or a book than view websites. Website content and copy needs to be concise, use plain English and the active voice. Writing for the web best practices to increase readability on a website includes:
  • Use of headings.
  • Small paragraphs (ideally one idea per paragraph).
  • Bullet points
  • Writing text in pyramid style (from most important copy to least important).
  • Excellent use of white space and visuals to break up text and make it easier to read.
  • Internal linking to direct visitors to other pages for more information.
  • Using visual information such as a flowchart.

Better quality images

Clear and large images are another way to facilitate usability on your website. A great example is a hotel website may display images of the hotel rooms, the facilities, the foyer and the location. A big part of booking a hotel room is the use of visual imagery to tell a story about a hotel in images as well as words. It is common to add an image gallery to a website.

Good use of white space

When it comes to white space less is definitely more. The use of whitespace often gives your website harmony and allows your visitors to absorb the contents on the page. Depending on the design aesthetic you are trying to achieve and the target market, the use of white space can also add a certain sophistication and elegance to your website.

Faster loader times

Google has long recognised that a faster loading time promotes usability on a website. Google has introduced page speed (how quickly a website responds to web requests) as a new signal in their search ranking algorithms. The Search Engine has done research on page speed and their findings show that when a site responds slowly, visitors spend less time on the site. There are plenty of ways to increase your site speed such as optimising image sizes.

WEB DESIGN – KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE

One of the keys to success in any business is knowing who your customers are and how to position your products or services so that they are of interest to them. Fans of the TV show starring Donald Trump - The Apprentice - will recall the product development episode where each team conducts a series of focus groups to find out what their potential clients are looking for.
Focus groups such as ‘user testing’ helps you identify new ways to package your product or service so that it's of interest to your clients and potential clients. They are also a great way of testing your product or service, marketing messages and unique-selling-proposition within a safe group of people representative of your client groups.
When designing your website, knowing your clients and what the unique selling propositions are that will help them make informed purchasing decisions is going to be crucial to the success of your website.  Most businesses find that in identifying their clients they can group them together by interest, location, type, demographic, purchases, age or gender and then target their marketing messages towards these different groups thus increasing their conversion ratios and sales.
When we are working with a client on their website or web design our first questions are always around their clients and what they are looking for. We will often help identify different personas, or types of client, that we can build user stories around as this helps us to design a website that meets the users needs. It also helps us to better understand crucial areas of a website which can have multiple marketing messages and how best to present them so as to maximise the return.
Understanding our clients customers helps us to design the best user journey through the website and ensuring that we're making it as easy as possible for them to make en enquiry, a purchase or download a PDF.

 Be the best at one thing, rather than average at many

It's very easy to get caught into the trap of trying to offer something for everyone. The reality of this strategy is that at best, you will most likely only be average at everything and offer your clients very little in terms of quality. A far better strategy is to use your client research to identify what you are really great at and how best to present this to your clients.

How To Choose A Good Plumber


In our homes and work places, things go wrong and as a result there might be some breakages and wearing out of pipes in our bathrooms toilets and even kitchens. Whenever this happens, you surely know that it’s the right time to hire a plumber to fix the damage. Not everyone has personal plumbers or knows how to fix the pipes therefore searching for a good plumber to take care of the mess is called for. 
Getting a good plumber who has your interests at heart can be a very hard task, especially if it is your first time. New home owners in a new neighborhood also find it difficult, however you can always find the best one, out of thousand to do the fixing for you. A good plumber should be able to demonstrate their skills and experience for you to be convinced to hire them. The last thing that you want is to have your taps and pipes leaking again after a shoddy service. Therefore it is very important for any home owner to select wisely a good plumber according to their service and experience.
There are many avenues of getting good plumbers. One of them is the internet. Carrying out an internet search can save you time, money and energy. This is because you only have to use your computer and internet. You can narrow down the search to your area of residence to avoid getting millions of plumbers around the world. Then you can always find one that passes your criteria. Also you can take a walk and look for one around your neighborhood, or better still, ask your neighbors and friends for one who is most reliable.
Before you rest at one, there are several factors that you have to consider, such as the level of training they have in this field. Questioning their levels of training will help you settle for the most suitable and professional one. Obviously a well-trained plumber has adequate knowledge in fixing the pipes than a novice one.
Question their legitimacy. Some plumbers cannot be trusted once they are into your house. Some of them may easily turn to become petty thieves thus you should ask them for a card from their company and if necessary make calls to the company to verify that they are indeed the right ones sent. This will make them and their company accountable for any loss of property while they were working at your place.

How to fix your hot water system Geelong Plumber

Have you run your bath water only to realise its ice cold? Have you jumped in the shower and been sprayed by cold water? If so, chances are you have a problem with your homes hot water system. Don’t stress, there are a few basic things you can try yourself prior to calling a plumber.  If you have a natural or propane gas water system, chances are the pilot has gone out. The pilot is a small flame that ignites the gas burner on your system. When it goes out, first try relighting it, following the directions on the label, which is often on the front of the system. If the pilot doesn’t relight, or if it goes out right after lighting, by far the most common cause is a broken thermocouple. The good news: you can usually replace a thermocouple for minimal cost and in less than an hour from a local hardware. You’ll get your hot water going without waiting for a pro to show up and save a few dollars!
To replace the thermocouple, be sure to turn off the shutoff valve in the gas line; that is, one quarter turn so that the handle is at a right angle to the pipe. Since working room is tight around the burner, we recommend that you simply unscrew the three nuts at the control valve and pull out the entire burner assembly unit. You’ll see either a slot or clips that hold it in its place. Then either unscrew the thermocouple end or pull it out (depending on the water heater) and take it with you to hardware store to find a match. Position it exactly the same way as the old one. The pilot flame should wrap around the thermocouple bulb.
To reattach the three lines to the gas valve, thread the nuts into place with your fingers and hand-tighten them properly. Then snug them up with a quarter to half revolution with a wrench. The metals are soft, so don’t over tighten as they will break.
Be sure to test for gas leaks. You must have the pilot lit and the burner on for this test so that gas is flowing through the large tube on the system. Reopen the shutoff valve, relight the pilot, then turn the control valve to the “on” position. When the gas burner is on, use a 50/50 dish soap/water mix to test the screw joints for air bubbles that indicate leaks.

Plumber Geelong Holiday Season Plumbing Tips

Bathroom Plumbing
  1. Having guests visiting for the holidays leads to increases in toilet use, so be sure to tell your guests not to put sanitary products, napkins, or baby wipes in the toilet. Not everyone knows that these items belong in the trash and not in the toilet!
  2. Ask your guests to use all the toilets in the house to reduce the load on a single toilet and decrease the chance of it getting backed up.
  3. Make sure there are no items on top of the toilet tank lid and remove any items you may have hanging near or over the toilet bowl. Guests are not used to the way things are positioned in your home and they may accidentally knock an object into the toilet!
  4. In case of a blockage in your toilet, do not keep flushing: use a plunger to try and dislodge the blockage.
  5. If your toilet keeps running on, check the position of the flapper inside the tank. It has to fit over the hole in the base of the tank, if it’s not fitting properly, use the shut off valve, which is normally located under the tank.
  6. Place hair traps in all showers and tub drains, as you will have extra guests taking showers and that will add to the amount of hair going down the drain.
Kitchen Plumbing
  1. A lot of cooking will be happening in your kitchen during the holidays. Make sure that whoever is helping you in the kitchen knows what should go in the trash, what can go in the bio container and what ought to go in the garbage disposal (if you have one).
  2. Avoid putting pasta, rice, coffee grounds, bones, potato skins, egg shells, lettuce or any large amounts of food down the garbage disposal.  Remember to run cold water when using it.
  3. Be sure to never pour that turkey grease or ham fat down the drain and if you don’t have a garbage disposal make sure you have a strainer in your sinks.
  4. If your kitchen sink (or any sinks!) gets blocked use this vinegar and baking soda solution to help unclogged your drain.
  5. For dishwashers, make sure you’re removing the food scraps from the dishes and cutlery and rinsing them in the sink so that the debris doesn’t block the dishwasher water line.

DIY Plumber Tips

Plumbing is a varied and skilled profession that includes many diverse areas of the job. In Melbourne, some plumbing tasks should be left to professional plumbers for reasons of safety and health. Plumbing jobs that entails working on gas channels of inner heating boilers must actually be left for professional heating engineers or gas fitters, as a mistake would cost a person’s life. There are lots of DIY plumbing maintenance that you can perform yourself without exposing yourself in danger.
Watching out your plumbing system may appear like a huge task, maybe even anything that must be left to a professional plumber Melbourne. And whilst this is actually true for a number of projects such as repairing breaks, leaks, cracks, power failure and frozen pipes, there are simple methods that you as the home owner may assist to make sure that your plumbing mechanism runs smoothly. Offering simple repair for your plumbing mechanism will ensure that it is properly maintained, and would hopefully assist to minimize the amount of visits required from an expert plumber to handle larger problems.
For instance, dripping pipes may be irritating to say the slightest, but dripping pipes that are left unattended to for long durations may cause fair amounts of damage to properties. Most drips result from poorly fitted joints of pipes. These pipe joints may be found n several applications that include:
  • Bath traps, basin traps and kitchen sinks are all linked to the waste-water pipe by use of a threaded joint; when the joint leaks it may cause damages to units, floors or anything below the joint. The most excellent method to remedy this kind of leak is removing the connecting nuts and ensuring that the rubber washers are present and in perfect conditions. The next measure is making sure that the pipes are pushed completely into the fittings on the traps. A perfect idea is binding the threaded parts of the traps with thread tapes or PTFE to ensure good seals.
  • Leaks for mechanical joints or compression joints may also be repaired in a similar manner. Compression joints are usually maintenance free although if they are interrupted the joint may start leaking. If you get one of such joints leaking the most excellent thing to perform is isolating the water and draining the pipe work completely. This may be carried out in most instances by unlocking the taps. Carefully loosen the joint using a spanner; it is an excellent idea to have some kind of towel or container under the joint so that it can capture any residual moisture that might be left inside the pipe work. Fully undo the nut and then join the joint treads with PTFE tape, retighten the nut to complete the repair.

DIY Plumbing Mistakes-Plumber Geelong

The most common and general plumbing mistake involves the wrong selection of pipes when repairing leaks in your house. This is both in terms of the size & the type of the pipe that is being used to fix the repair. The pipes may therefore fail to fit into each other, as you need. Using too much force when connecting 2 pipes together or forcing the connectors may break the pipes or the connectors. Further leaks may develop in the pipes and they may burst when pressure  does build up in the pipe. Corrosion may also occur if you get the pipe type wrong. Professional plumbers know when to use galvanized pipes and when to use the correct copper pipes. 
Improvising make shift tools and equipment in place of what the professional plumber uses is another regular mis happening. For eg, many people use marbles or ball bearings instead of a real level when installing or repairing bathroom fixtures. A ball bearing or marble may not work when checking the level and this could cause you into unnecessary reworks.
You need to have a good design of where the sewer pipes are  going to be placed. This is especially the case when carrying out plumbing works in the upper floors of a building or apartment blocks. An odd DIY plumbing mistake routing the pipes in the wrong places so that they interfere with occupants of the lower floors of the apartment. Imagine a situation where you are always woken up by the sound of toilet flushing from the apartment floors above. A common practice by professional plumbers involves designing & planning the drainage network before the actual implementation.
The last DIY plumbing mistake in the list is failure to turn off the water stopcock before attempting any type of common repairs. This is always the first thing that a professional plumber will do even for the tiniest plumbing tasks at. Doing so prevents flooding, which often causes damage to common household items. It will also take you added time to drain the water from the house or appartment.
Trying to fix a small problem on your own and getting it wrong could create a major problem. Hiring an emergency plumber Geelong to rectify the bigger problem will cost you more money. You should therefore take your time when doing your own plumbing work to avoid such mistakes or call a professional plumber Geelong in case you are not sure how to fix the problem

Plumber Geelong tips

If your pipes are noisy that they sound like squeaking or hammering, you can easily solve this problem. You can anchor exposed pipes to get rid of noises. Call a plumber to help with pipes that require you to cut a hole in a wall, ceiling or floor.

Many plumbers will request a deposit before starting a plumbing repair. On smaller jobs, they will request payment at the end of the job.

If your home operates on well water and you notice pink or orange stains in your bath tub and other fixtures, this is due to iron in the water. You should purchase a water softener to use, or ask a local plumber to make a visit to your residence & resolve the issue for you.

Putting a cup of any kind of baking soda followed with a cup of white vinegar into your drain each month will keep your drain running smoothly. This should cause a chemical reaction to occur and you should plug the drain. Wait a while, and then use boiling water to flush the drain. Although this is useful for clearing away simple clogs made of hair and soap debris, it will not work for more serious blockages.

Water that drains back into your dishwasher is due to a damaged sink hook up. The hose going from the dishwasher to the sink needs to angle upwards before going back downhill to prevent water from both being mixed.

Do not use your toilet like a rubbish bin to minimize potential problems. If you flush improper items such as disposable diapers, facial tissue, cotton balls, paper toweling, tampons or sanitary napkins down the toilet, you will surely have problems with blockages. Additionally, try to use the smallest amount of toilet paper you can.

Keep your dryer's lint trap clean. By doing this simple task, you can prevent a great deal of trouble. This includes prevention of fires. See to it that you look at the lint trap and find out if it has tears or holes in it that could cause lint to go inside your pipes, which could lead to plumbing clogs or other problems in the future.

Keep your bath tub in good shape by pouring a cup of vinegar down its drain on a regular basis. Use the technique above to help you. Doing this will help rid your pipes of disgusting soap scum and clogs.

Now you have the understanding of plumbing that you can apply to fix your plumbing issues in your home or business. The above tips were constructed to add to your plumbing skills, as you are never done learning or improving them.

Plumbing problem Fixes

If your pipes make squeaking and hammering noise, it may be easy to fix. Exposed pipes need to be anchored when installed. If pipes are located in the ceiling or walls, you might want to have a professional help you complete the task.

Make sure the plumber geelong gives you an quote before the job commences. You may be required to put some money down before a job is started as a deposit. Never pay the total cost until you know the job has been completed correctly. This will help to ensure that the plumber is concerned about quality.

Do not use tough chemicals such as toilet tablets in your toilet. Many kinds of toilet tablets might break down obnoxious smells in your toilets, but they might also break down the rubber, resulting in malfunction and costly repairs.

If you are unable to relieve a clogged toilet with  the plunger, try pouring a small bucket of water into the bowl from about waist level if the level of water in the bowl has lowered. You could repeat this process agains if the water in the toilet bowl lowers again.

Take quality into account when it comes to replacing  the shower head. It is common to think it’s fine to buy a shower head that is the cheapest. The big issue with this is they aren’t sturdy and they tend to break a lot more often

Taking preventative measures means you will not have to spend as much on plumbing repairs and maintenance. Clogs can be a major cause of plumbing issues. Blockages in drains can be caused by hair, among other things. Stop hair from going down drains with a drain cover or screen designed specifically for this purpose.
