When I started my very first website I didnt really have a game plan – I ran out and joined every single program I could find. Course once I got to developing the site I didnt have room for all those programs. 
So I attempted to use only the best programs and not knowing who actually was the best I had to consider what I did know – design – perceived quality, and/or first impressions.
For that reason I never ended up placing them on my site, and to this day I think theyd do so much better if they prettyd’ up the place. Course I really cant remark on any success sense Ive never promoted them.
