As in most cases, it really depends. If you're selling something you can capture visually (and particularly if you're only selling one), then putting a high-quality image of it on your homepage is generally a brilliant move. But in terms of the copy, I'd still be inclined, <em>typically</em>, to describe benefits rather than features. I say "typically" because it does depend on your audience and their level of commitment. If you're selling to a technical consumer audience, they might well want features rather than just benefits. If you're selling to a business audience who already know they want something like what you're selling (ie, they already know the benefits), then promoting features can also be a good idea. Generally, if it's appropriate to list features, it's appropriate to also list their benefits. For example, "7200 rpm hard disk—for loading programs faster" or whatever. List the feature, then the benefit. Hope this helps, Bnonn .-= D Bnonn Tennant´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/informationhighwayman/~3/Rx5Z8odsoIY/" rel="nofollow">How to Develop a Homepage Layout that Sells</a> =-.
