			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Naperville MMA Classes with Combat-Do are your one stop shop for Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, kickboxing and grappling.</strong> Head instructor Master Bob Schirmer is an eighth degree black belt, a remarkable accomplishment for someone so young. Master Bob was awarded the rank of Master from the United States Jiu-Jitsu Association in 1994.  <strong>A representative from the association spent a week at the school training and was so impressed by Bob&#8217;s jiu-jitsu that he returned the following week with the coveted Master belt and presented it to Bob making him a 37 year old Master.</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve personally gone to see events in the chicagoland area where Master Bob&#8217;s students crushed the competition.  But with credentials like his and instructors second to none in the industry, it&#8217;s easy to see why so many children as well as adults are signing up with Combat-Do.  There facilities are also state of the art.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Non profit web design in Chicago is something that we take very seriously at robbuti.com.</strong> I personally take great pride in doing any work for non profit organizations in Chicago and its surrounding suburbs.  Whether your organization needs a new website or some routine maintenance, robbuti.com is there.  We even reduce our hourly rate by close to 50% for any non profit organization in DuPage and Cook county.  It is our way of saying thanks as we know you are a very important part of our community and we understand that there has been massive budget cuts around the city and suburbs for organizations like yours.</p>
<p><strong>Hopefully your site is properly set up to capture your donations and volunteers from the start.  Make sure you have a button or some text that stands out so you can get those donations and volunteers that you deserve.</strong> Make it easy for your visitors to find what they are looking for and it will help and make sure to give <a title="search engine optimization" href="http://www.robbuti.com/" target="_self">Chicago SEO company</a> a call to help you out.</p>
<p>If my blog is still the bleak looking light design be sure to click on the home tab on the upper left corner of the top navigation to see our new design which will also be our new WordPress theme in the near future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>In dealing with many clients throughout my career as a web designer and <a title="SEO Chicago" href="http://www.robbuti.com/" target="_self">Chicago seo</a> specialist I&#8217;ve come across a pattern among small business client&#8217;s or those clients who come to me with &#8220;an idea.&#8221;</strong> When dealing with small business clients you never know when or if you are going to get paid!  I always ask for 50% up front and usually see the remaining 50% after a few emails or a few phone calls, but there are a few clients who just don&#8217;t respond or keep making excuses.  <strong>One of the biggest excuses right now is of course &#8220;the economy.&#8221;</strong> Of course those clients who use the economy as an excuse are the same ones you find  paying $600 a month or more to a Google ad campaign or a directory where their site is listed, but they can&#8217;t seem to give you the $600.  I think I need to get beefed up and start breaking some legs around here like Stewy in this Family Guy clip:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Yeah, you got money to pay for fake mustaches huh!  How much did you pay for that fake mustache?</strong><br />
<object width="480" height="385" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/9XZ1crkgtmc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9XZ1crkgtmc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object>
</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>$2.99</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The lesson learned is to get your money upfront for any work that you do.  So those of you just starting out with web design, please take this advice and save yourself a lot of time and money!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Now we&#8217;ll move onto the client&#8217;s who come to you with &#8220;an idea.&#8221;  I&#8217;ve had several clients come to me with &#8220;an idea&#8221; and the vast majority tell me that their idea is like Facebook, lol.</strong> Once you hear that their idea is like Facebook, run!!!  Nothing is worse than dealing with clients who have no idea how the web works,<strong> they just come up with elaborate ideas that they think can be whipped together for about $1,000.</strong> Tell them to take a hike, stop being so nice and don&#8217;t waste another second of your time with &#8220;an idea&#8221; client.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Of course there are many more pet peeves, but I will save them for a later time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Google&#8217;s move to confront the Chinese government over the censorship of its search results is looking shrewder by the day. </em>It has succeeded in mending some of the damage to its reputation caused by its original entry into China, it&#8217;s given a huge boost to the morale of thousands of Google staff who were never happy defending that decision, and it&#8217;s<strong> moved the spotlight onto its rivals&#8217; China policies</strong>.</p>
<p>But it could also prove a decisive moment for the fortunes of its Chrome browser. <strong>Miocrosoft has admitted that there is a vulnerability in its Internet Explorer browser, which was apparently used by the Chinese hackers who launched an assault on Google and other companies.</strong> The German and French governments have both responded by advising their citizens to avoid Internet Explorer.</p>
<p>This terrible piece of PR for Microsoft comes just as the IE browser which had almost total control of the market starts to come under pressure &#8211; not just from the open-source Mozilla Firefox, but from Google&#8217;s Chrome.</p>
<p><span id="more-601"></span></p>
<p>Finding accurate statistics for market share in the browser market is quite a challenge &#8211; <strong>this link appears to show that Internet Explorer, in its various guises, has now been overtaken by Firefox, and that Chrome has come from nowhere to grab 10% of the market.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Restaurant web design in Chicago and its suburbs has been getting on my nerves!</strong> I was looking for a pizza joint in Chicago and a lot of the websites created by <a href="http://www.robbuti.com/">Chicago web design</a> company&#8217;s  had a flash intro, come on man.  Then once I skip the annoying flash intro I get to a site with no menu and a phone number and address hidden on the contact page.  What is going on with <strong>web design for restaurants</strong>!  Restaurant websites should not have an annoying flash intro and they should most definately contain the following:<a href="http://www.robbuti.com/blog/"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-597" title="webdesignchicago" src="http://www.robbuti.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/webdesignchicago.jpg" alt="Chicago restaurant web design" /></a></p>
<ul>
<li>A phone number that is really easy to find, like in the upper right hand corner of the header on every page.</li>
<li>A menu and a good one that actually contains prices</li>
<li>An address so you know where the restaurant is and where you need to go to pick up your pizza to go</li>
<li>Good, real images of the food you are about to consume</li>
</ul>
<p>Why is this that hard for web designers to pull off, take it easy and don&#8217;t over design your site and make all of the above mentioned contents a priority.  Keep it simple!  Robbuti.com&#8217;s team of experienced web developers know what it takes to put up an easy to use functional restaurant website that will leave your customers with a pleasant experience as they get what they need without any of the design getting in the way.</p>
<p>Some restaurant owners don&#8217;t like to put pricing on thier menus as they change often and they don&#8217;t want to keep paying their web developer an arm and a leg to update it, but rest assured, we use 3 different types of content management systems for restaurant web sites that will make it easy for you to make the changes yourself without the anxiety of waiting for your web developer to make the changes in a timely manner.  We can use WordPress, Joomla or Drupal to make your new website or we can update your old site with one of these CMS.  Using these content management systems make everything so much easier as we will set them up right off the bat with proper search engine optimization throughout and you just add the content and the CMS does the rest.</p>
<p>Once we set up your new CMS, <strong>we will personally sit down with you and teach you everything you need to know to update your new site on a regular basis.</strong> Not only will this save you a lot of money, but it will give you complete control of your site and in a short time you will start learning more about your website and search engine optimization as it will all come together.  <strong>You&#8217;ll be suprised how easy all of this is, don&#8217;t let another SEO design company rip you off, let us teach you the ins and outs and you will take off running and be in complete control.</strong></p>
