VIII - THE PAGES OF AWARDS RECEIVED
The pages of awards received are among the most important pages of a site, they
will appear as deserved honors and received by the site. There are some basics
that need to be observed in all the pages of awards received to avoid hassles or
canceling awards granted, here are five important steps:
1. Initially it is important that you create a table where the awards will be
aggregated classified (rated) and non-classified (non-rated) or independent, the
links of this table will lead to the relationship of the awards into separate
pages (for classified and non-classified ). We do this because the prizes are
classified more valuable that the non-classified and many people may not have
time to assess the non-classified awards, seeing only classified.
2. Another important measure is separate awards classified by their levels of
classification, starting with the highest ratings, that facilitates the location
of the most important prizes and saves time. In these tables use only text and
links, as a display of awards occupied much space and make a very long list. In
a separate page (preferably of the type pop-up) show prize, the laudatio or
message routing of the award and other information such as the date on which it
was received and their level of classification.
3. The upgrade of the page of awards received should be immediate, not take days
to put a premium, or allow to notify who granted that the award is already on
your page, providing the link of the page where the award, this is the best
demonstration of gratitude that you can give.
4. The navigation is of great importance to the pages of awards received, each
page must contain the full menu of the site and, if possible, the navigation
buttons that allow return to the previous page, advance to the next page or
climb to the top of page, it is essential particularly for sites that have
already received more than one hundred awards. Be sure to provide links to the
main page and email on every page.
5. Never change the size or the shape of a premium received, this is the largest
demonstration of disrespect for those given the award, even when you consider
that this amendment is necessary so you can display the award, the best you
would not display it .
On the homepage of the Awards Received is common to do a table with links to the
pages themselves. In this table must also include the guest that the site is
based on classified awards he has received. This score is valid only Awards
classifieds above the level 3 and always has the same value. Award classified
2.5, 2 or below, are not punctuated. Below follows a guest:

Some Programs Awards present a single award, eg Excellence Award, in this case
for the purpose of scoring, it is equivalent to the Gold, or worth 1,00 point.
If a program offers two or more awards in other categories, eg Excellence Award
and Graphic, normally these awards are at the same level and therefore are also
treated to Premium Gold. You should always read the purpose of the program,
because there may be described if these awards have any hierarchy between them,
or if they are at the same level. Not forgetting that this guest is only valid
for prizes classified at level 3,0 and above.

Following these simple
steps you will have pages of awards received organised and attractive, which
will invite the visitor to know each one, and that grant awards will give
the impression that you treat seriously the awards received, which added
more points on the trial it makes your site.
IX - TERMINATION
I do not feel as a teacher, but as a
colleague concerned to pass on the knowledge gained. I do it with great joy,
because it is a way to thank my friends all the patience they had me and all
the time they devoted to teach me the basic rules so important. They allowed
me build better sites, more beautiful and pleasant to my visitors, which has
added more than a million people in all my sites.
In this manual we saw
only what we consider as basic in a program of awards, with time we want to
improve it and for this we have the cooperation of all, all criticism and
suggestions will be very welcome! If in doubt send me an email that will be
happy to help as I was helped when needed.
