Clickable Maps and How To Make Them Fast

July 31, 2009 by · 6 Comments 

For many website owners it could be helpful to have a link to various geometric areas of the world or of their territory, whether it be for location specific information, sales of products or types of a directory. A visual image like a map with areas that are clickable would be the right idea. Visitors can be presented with a clickable map of Europe rather than a bunch of links or a dropdown menu for Europe.

It takes time and care for a webmaster to make a clickable map and it would be an impressive addition to the website content. Even for Joomla users, it’s fast and easy to add a clickable map.

First you need to find the correct size of map, either by scanning and reducing to desired size and then working to make it clear and colorful in a decent image program. That includes enhancing the boundaries of the states that you will eventually make clickable.

Next, the difficult part is to import the map image into a html editor or some map editing software that is capable of drawing clickable regions upon the image and in turn make these hotspots into readable coordinates within the html code and when that is done each region will be clickable when presented in the browser.

Each clickable region can hyperlink to an url of your choice so for a clickable state map of Ireland for example can link to an informative page for your visitors when they choose Wales, Ireland, Yorkshire etc etc Great for sending visitors to images or your affiliate links or regional news as another example.

Of course all this work to make a clickable map is too time consuming or probably unfathomable for some people without knowledge of making websites but the vast majority know how to add hyperlinks.

You can find ready made clickable maps of Europeat clickablemaps.com or the webmaster can make one just for you. Clickable maps of Asia, UK, USA and Europe are all available and with the new MapHilight JQuery Plugin by David Lynch. Now that would save time and a nice idea too.

Scotland Debt Help with Trust Deeds

January 9, 2009 by · 6 Comments 

A Scottish Trust Deed is a binding voluntary arrangement, available to residents of Scotland in place of Sequestration (Bankruptcy).

It is the equivalent to an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) which is available to residents of England and Wales.

Once agreed, your creditors will not be able to add any interest and/or additional charges e.g. wage arrestment, debt collectors and bankruptcy, to recover debts due to them to your Trust Deed account. It also protects you from other creditor demands and more importantly once it is complete, it allows you to clear off all your debt, which will take up to 3 years.

In order to finalise your Scottish Trust Deeds you will almost certainly have to release equity in your house into the Trust Deed. This is usually as part of the final settlement and will help clear off the debt once and for all. However, there are other options that can be triggered to protect your house such as “buy-back” or extra cash contributions.

If you are not able to afford repayments because of changes in your circumstances, then your trustee in the Trust Deed can request a variation to reflect your new circumstances. Likewise if you have suddenly come into a large amount of money you should also tell your supervisor.

Just to sum up. A Trust Deed provides the following:

- Write off all the debt you can’t afford

- Make just one affordable monthly payment

- Be debt free, normally in three years

- Stop worrying about legal action by your creditors

- Avoid bankruptcy / sequestration
