Welcome, once again (actually, it's the first time) to "How To Make A Successful Fan Site," with yours truly!

Here's the first tip to making a successful Linkin Park fan site:

Have a good idea of what you want your site's layout to look without having it look too much like any other web site that already exists.

Here is an example of a site that doesn't do that: Digital Linkin Park (http://www.dlplp.com/dhtml/index.htm) (which is also the title of an old LP fan site that I used to run).

That layout looks exactly like Linkin Park's official German web site, at LP.de (http://www.linkinpark.de).

Another example is Russian Linkin Park Fan (http://www.lpfan.by.ru), a web site that not only links directly to our content, but looks strikingly familiar to our own web site!

Yes, it's a tragedy, I know. Let's all bask in the glory that is plagairism.

Until next time, this has been Will with "How To Make A Successful Fan Site"!

Basically, this is just to show off some sites that don't do their own work. Next week: sites that take news from other sites! *cough*
