How to create an interactive website with the ability to evolve

1. Create content that attracts the eye, while allowing users to engage with it. To do this, add as much multimedia as possible. Websites that are rich in text often do not do well because they are tiring on the eyes. Many search the Internet through a hunt-and-peck method, so keep users engaged by adding plenty of pictures, videos and other multimedia while allowing users the ability to comment on these pieces of media.

2. Let users have a say. An interactive website is just that -- a place for users to interact. Make sure to create a website with a content management system that lets users add pictures, video and comments to the site. This will keep users engaged, and then it doesn't make all of the content production land on your shoulders. Be sure to comment on user submissions to keep them wanting to share.

3. Use social media to attract users who want to interact. Blogging and adding content to your site are great ways to interact with users, but you have to market the site. Blogging and site creation are stagnant, in other words the content stays on your site, making impact only within its central location. You need to create an identity and market your creation on different platforms. Social media plays well to this. Create Facebook and Twitter accounts and begin interacting with users. These users are already engaged and have a lot of great ideas. By welcoming them to your site, you'll receive great feedback in order to keep your website constantly evolving.
