🏠

Votre page d'accueil vous représente sur le web, généralement placée à la racine et en haut de votre domaine, elle affiche votre nom et une représentation icônique souvent marquée avec une h-card.

Pourquoi

Toutes les raisons du pourquoi et plus encore.

Utilisez votre domaine personnel pour posséder votre identité sur le web.

En rendant votre page d'accueil plus utile, vous vous sentirez plus motivés pour partager votre URL plutôt qu'un simple nom d'utilisateur sur Twitter ou toute autre profil sur un silo.

Commentaire

Qu'est-ce qui devrait figurer sur la page d'accueil de votre site indie web ?

À Propos

Votre page d'accueil devrait contenir certaines informations basiques vous concernant :

• nom
• icône / photo de profil
• les liens de communication (aim: mailto: tel: etc. voir [1] pour un premier brainstorming d'UI à ce sujet)
• autre à propos / contact information, par ex.
  • Liens vers URLs de profils sur les silos, emplacement approximatif , mini-bio, catégories/mots-clés
• marqués avec h-card (voir indiewebify pour vérifier et valider)
• support-connexion-web
  • Des liens rel-me vers vos autres identités sur le web

Your home page is the URL you share with people, therefore it's useful to set it up with:

• role - brief summary of what it is you do
• discovery of what else you have on your site
• Your local time
• Last seen (last checkin/location post)
• upcoming events
• projects
• disclosure - disclosures of various types, e.g. cookies or analytics tracking

Stream

Next, it's quite popular to have:

• stream of your most recent posts and other activities.

See the Stream of Updates below for some inspiration.

Archive Navigation

If you show a stream of recent posts on your home page, it may also be useful to show a small navigation interface for your archives.

More: archive navigation.

Previously

Among early 2000s bloggers it was popular to also have on your home page:

• blogroll

IndieWeb Examples

Simple Homepages

Some interesting indieweb home page examples of simple contact/about information (e.g. hCard), maps for location, live IM status etc. - probably worth expanding and document each of these:

• http://scottbullard.com/ - phone/email links with more: http://scottbullard.com/more.html
• http://www.jaredhanson.net/ - live IM status on Jared's hCard
• http://npdoty.name/ - map as background centered on his current location
• old adactio.com (pre-2012)

That and most recent blog post:

• http://ebdesign.se/

That and occasional blog posts:

• http://aralbalkan.com/

The https://bear.im homepage for Modèle:Bear has a super simple hCard and then links to the hFeed and a more substantive About page

Stream of Updates

All that and most of the content they post online as a stream:

Mixed/composite feed examples with complete posts:

• http://tantek.com/
• http://adactio.com/ (late 2012+)

Streams of partial posts / summaries:

• Modèle:Voxpelli http://voxpelli.com/ – stream of latest blog post titles

Streams of only names/titles of posts:

• Modèle:Bear https://bear.im/bearlog

Separate feeds:

• http://aaronparecki.com/
• Modèle:Voxpelli http://voxpelli.com/ – links to separate feeds for bookmarks and social interactions

Homepage Brainstorming

Things which could go on homepages which aren’t currently implemented, or are underimplemented. Sometimes there is an intent to implement.

• payment links/buttons
• local weather/daylight (extra context)
• people I’ve mentioned recently
• tags I’ve used recently
• actions like subscribe, contact, add to address book
• latest comments

I might be adding links to /me (my profile page) and /about (about the site, license info, powered by, hosted at, etc.) to my homepage. --Sandeep Shetty

Signed-in Features

When signed-in to your own site, it might be useful to have:

• reader - integrated reader showing posts from others you follow
  • silo examples of such a logged in home page: Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr - logged in dashboard

Sketches

Webmention to homepage

Webmentions sent directly to home pages could serve a number of use-cases:

• notification of a person-mention (like an indieweb @-mention) on a post somewhere else
• invitation to an indie event
• notification of a new private message received
• allowing other people to tag you in photos or posts

Silo Examples

Silos don't technically give you access to their home page, but they do typically provide you with something resembling a home page, albeit typically at a path (not at the root), and they call it a profile. Though they really should be providing subdomains instead of profile paths.

Twitter

As an example, Twitter let's you customize your profile page with:

• icon - upload (min/max resolution/bytes?)
• header image - upload (min/max resolution/bytes?)
• bio - 160 character text field, @ and # auto-linked.
• website - auto-linked URL
• location - ??? character text field.
