Design of content in a web page is a job often given to marketing professionals. For most web pages, the goal is advertisement - to display information about the company, organization, product or service in hopes that you will buy. The presentation may be direct - "buy my product", it may be subtle - "this is my opinion, I hope you will agree with me", or it may be indirect - "I generally support the goal or philosophy of these other organizations".

Even for ".org" sites, a major goal of the presence of a site is to advertise and to solicit support (financial or philosophical) for an organization.

Content on a personal web page is much the same. My goal with this site is to make information available to my friends, family, and associates. But in another sense, I too am "advertising" myself. Keep this in mind, as you go through this site, and as you surf the web: Balance open-mindedness with skepticism.
