Ultimate Collection of CSS Gallery Showcases

Matt Strange — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 16:06:38 +0000

I have accumulated 70 different CSS Gallery sites displaying there pagerank. It is important to design a good looking website if you want your site featured on various CSS Gallery sites. Valid HTML would also help in getting your site listed on some showcases.

Recommend

I only use a couple of gallery sites for inspirational purposes. I highly recommend Screenfluent for its ease in browsing new designs and Smashing Magazine for a good read and to follow.

Advantages

It is ideal that you submit your site to a number of showcases as this will increase your pagerank and therefore traffic will follow!

Do not get put off by the pagerank of a showcase site as the site itself may have several thousands visitors a month so the pagerank will be irrelevant. If you have successfully submitted your site, it will be listed in the showcase and will not be removed.
