Everyone has to speak in public at some point in his life. And everyone has to learn how to do it. So let me present some tips to you here that might make it easier for you to speak in public.
Research Your Audience
One of the biggest mistake I have seen people make is to not research your audience. The same applies to a web site. If you don't know what people are interested in then you might grab some people's attention with your web site but you can't really focus on the things they care most about.
That's why you need to do some research. Where are the people from? Do they have well payed jobs? What do they have in common? What do they value most?
Make Use of Visual Elements
Visual elements are very important in every presentation. Without it people will have a hard time following you. If you use them too often though you might end up losing your audience's attention due to them being more interested in your visual graphics.
Try to find a balance for the use of visual elements. Don't use too few and don't use too many. Try to limit yourself to only presenting visual material if it helps explain what you are saying.
