Website a day, eh?

HUNTING websites is an interesting as well as a tiresome task. You have to be specific about what exactly you are searching for in order to put correct keywords in the search engine to get as close a result as possible. But if you simply want to browse through different websites, then you must have a good deal of knowledge about the search engines which you can visit other than Yahoo and Google. However, it should be kept in mind that more or less all search engines carry the same URL of websites.

This is where a website like Cool Site of the Day comes in. This website offers a newsletter service in which the subscriber receives a link to a new website everyday through e-mail. For those of us, who are wary about submitting our e-mail address to a new website and are already irritated recipient of unlimited spam, then we can simply visit the website daily and can check out the link of the day.

The website is pretty much to the point. The homepage is clutter-free, and very neatly structured. It does not dwell on lengthy descriptions of the daily highlights. Instead, if you click on the appropriate link, it will take you to the the day’s website. You can also, always leave your feedback about the selected webpage in the drop down menu that lingers at the top for a while.

The website also allows you to visit a random site. Simply click on the icon which says, ‘Random Cool Site’ and you will find yet another website to browse through. The archive of links is available as well – comprising all those websites which have already been featured on Cool Site of the Day. So, if you are not content with just one website per day, or if the site is not according to your liking, you can access the archive and browse many more.

If you own a website, and are looking for a platform to launch, then here is your chance. This website features an option in which one of the submitted sites is picked as the cool website of the day. You just have to use the online form to submit the website. It will be reviewed and if found up to the mark, will make it in the queue of the cool site of the day. There is just one catch here. Apparently, this website is rather popular so they charge fee for reviewing your website. But if you feel it is worth it, go ahead.

And of course, if you like this website and find it useful for the internet gurus like yourself, then you can help in promoting it, especially if you own a blog or a site. There is a range of different banners and buttons available here that can be downloaded and put up on your blog. However, a very important omission is the accompanying HTML code with these banners and buttons. If the code was given, even the novices among us could have easily inserted the link in your website or blog. As it happens, only those familiar with HTML can use this promotional business.

It is true that once-a-day services such as these have been around for a long time and have been very popular, but they exist precisely for their utility and the convenience they offer to all those internet users who are genuinely interested in browsing new and interactive websites.
