I recently asked an SEO professional and friend during a business meet if he used black hat or white hat SEO techniques and he told me that he is a grey hat guy, which means he some times does use black hat techniques. Man does not need God or a religious scripture to tell him that murder is wrong. In fact, there may be authorities that may justify a killing (like say for national defense) but anybody in his senses know it is still wrong from a human level.

Thus there are certain basic things all self respecting SEO people know is taboo as it is not ethical and bad for the future of the networked world (Web 1, Web 2, Web x...) Google or no Google, and also for his Soul. So, Do Not

Spam the search engines

Intentionally harm a client or competitor

Directly violate search engine guidelines

Falsely represent the clients content

Compromise with client's confidentiality

Be out of touch with the search engine/industry updates/changes

Be proud of using hidden links if you must

Be a part of the link farm mafia

Transcription work is often done by legal secretaries. Legal secretaries work for judges, law firms, hearing officers and also for private investigators. A legal secretary may be responsible for many duties depending on the level of the firm and the assigned work. Though there is a very subtle difference between a legal secretary and a Para legal staff or a legal assistant, most of the duties can overlap between them. Even though legal transcription has become a specialized area of work today, with increased outsourcing of transcription work being sent to transcription professionals, a legal secretary is often depended upon for instant transcription work and document preparation.

Besides doing a lot of administrative work and other legal document management work a legal secretary is also expected to be work independently and assist the legal professional. A short list of the many possible duties and responsibilities of a legal secretary can include,

• Maintaining calendar of court dates
• Correspondence/ mail management
• Hearings transcription
• Schedule deposition
• Overall monitoring/coordination of work
• Trial transcription
• Case management
• Document management for court hearing
• Handle court exhibits
• Travel arrangements
• Payment system management
• Court reporting schedule management
• Legal correspondence transcription
• Statistical report preparation
• Dictation transcription
• Witness management
• Drafting/editing/proofreading
• Document review for citation
• Assist attorney to file documents
• Arranging teleconference

Thus we see that besides being efficient in many areas including legal transcription and document management, a legal secretary must primarily have a good knowledge of all court rules and regulation and also keep contact with the public, federal /state agencies, court officials and others to obtain and manage information related to cases.

Web Designing should be such that it should attract the audience on the web and give a good site experience. Quite often people just scan through the web pages without reading even a small percentage of what is written. There are many reasons for this. One of the first things to do before embarking on a web site design project would be to get many answers for questions like,

• For whom is this Web site going to be?
• What do these users want?
• Are they computer literate and aware of the Internet?
• This interface and interfaces like it?
• What are the users trainable?
• What knowledge they possess?
• What functions do the users need from this interface?
• What do users expect from this site?
• The domain (subject matter)?
• What environment do these surfers have?
• What hardware /software do they use?
• How can users handle errors?

Once we have the answers to the above mentioned questions the website has to be developed and also tested. It is very essential that one does not finally decide on a design but wait for the feeds back from the user and if necessary make the required changes that will satisfy the user's needs. Here are a few user centered design points to note that will make it easy on them,

• Have good visibility for links
• Ensure instant response and feedback to the user
• Have consistent theme and design across the entire website
• Information should be very accessible with a sitemap
• Make the user skim through the pages
• Make important aspects on page more prominent
• Have good descriptive links
• Minimize user errors
• Highly legible text
• Simple and good understandable language
• Limited use of color
• Use graphics with small size for quick downloading
• Uncluttered pages with useful graphics
