Pimp Your Web Page: QuickRibbon
Posted by admin on April 11, 2008
Here’s a quick and attractive way to spice up any web page or web marketing campaign: QuickRibbon.
This free Web 2.0 web application does thing, and it does it really well: It generates a web page ribbon for you. You know, one of those slanted graphics that shows up in the upper right corner of a web page.
According to the QuickRibbon.com web site:
“QuickRibbon is a completely free Web2.0 tool, a website ribbon generator which lets you create a custom ribbon, insert a link in it and place it in the top right corner of your website.”
“It will take you less than 5 minutes to generate your own website ribbon with this trendy widget and add a stylish Web2.0 look to your page – it’s quick, easy and fun. We recommend using our QuickRibbon tool to attract your site’s visitors attention to new features, announcements, sales, etc. Get rid of the boring banners and make your news stand out with a style.”
I found this extremely useful for a couple of web campaigns, where we needed to draw attention to a new service or a special promotion.
The text, font, size, colors and style can be selected and auto-generated. And when you’ve generated the ribbon, you even get a code snippet that you can insert into your web page to display the ribbon. Additionally, you can add links to your ribbon and specify whether to show them in the same window or in a new window.
How cool is that? Oh, and did I mention that you can also use this tool for BLOGs (WordPress, blogger, etc.), MySpace, and LiveJournal?
