What is a Home Page?

What is a home page? Is it:

The page you spend most time developing, or

The page you spend the most time promoting, or

The page that loads when someone types www.yoursite.com, or

The page that people see first when they arrive at your site, or

The page with the highest PageRank, or

Your most popular page?

You might find that you get different answers for each of these. If so then you might not be making the most of your website. If a page is popular but doesn’t have much useful content, this can be improved. If visitors don’t arrive at the home page, you need to think about what they see first, and where they might go next. Make sure you don’t use up all of your best ideas and effort on the home page – other pages can be just as important.
