| Hi guys, Just wondering what page width do you use for web sites? I'm wondering if i should create a site around 980 wide aimed at 1028 resolution users or should i use something like 760 to include 800 wide resolution visitors. What's the normal thing to do? Thanks, |

| In the past I was using 800px, but lately I use 1000px

| Yeah recently for us more and more customers prefer to go with the 1024 resolution over the 800. Personally, I'd still go for 800 even though it's used by as little as 8%-10% now, it's still a high percentage not to care about in my opinion! |

| on archiseek I went 800 but placed ads outside of it so in reality its 1000.. on everything else, I'm currently going 980 / 1000 |

| Try and figure out who your visitors are. They tech folks? Wide and you'll be fine. Are your visitors people in offices? Aim for 800 to 1000. It a site for old people or very young people? Then 800 tops. Tis all about demographics!

| Thanks guys, Just wanted to get an idea of what other people are doing. I have been using the same idea as was mentioned in that the content is 760 wide but there are ads outside that so in reality it's up near 1000. |

| I use 1000px, or 1002px if the site has a border around it |
| ||||
| I prefer 970px, but twice I used even 1180px -- a client wanted this width, so why not. |
| ||||
| I recently just finished a project and worked with 960px. |
