Text Link
A word (or a string of words) in hypertext that is not accompanied by
a graphical image. Connects one area of a web page with another area or
with another web page.
Title Tag
The name of a web page. The content of the Title tag is generally displayed
by the browser at the top of the browser window. The search engines use
the Title tag to provide a link to the sites which match the query made
by the user. Having keywords in the Title tag of a page can significantly
increase the search engine ranking of the page for those keywords.
Traffic
Amount of information being transferred. Your computer that visits a web
site and downloads any of its pages is causing "traffic" while information
is being transferred between the web site and your computer. Traffic includes
such things as e-mail, of course. The more traffic, the better. You can
find out how much traffic your web site gets by viewing and analyzing
the log files on your web server.
Trick Banner
A banner ad that looks like a dialog box with buttons. It simulates a
real error message that you have to respond to by clicking the button,
which is actually fake. Like any banner, clicking anywhere on the graphic
will send you to the intended Web site.
