If you are developing a personal homepage, do whatever you feel like.  Your page is an expression of yourself.  Go for it!
    

If you have more serious aspirations, ask yourself what value your site offers your visitors?  If the site does not offer your visitors a unique benefit, they will not likely come back and revisit you.
 
Getting traffic is not automatic.  Plan on taking an active role promoting your site via search engines, banner exchanges, cooperative deals with others sites, advertising and various other creative promotions.  Most of the traffic on SquirrelNet has been generated by GoTo.com.
 
Most internet users care more about the actual text and ease-of-use of a page than flashy graphics and features.  On SquirrelNet, we hesitate to do anything more flashy than the acorn_big.gif you see at the left.
 
If you wish to get a bit more advanced with your page, we suggest using a visual editor so that you don't have to program pure HTML.  Once started in HTML, take a look at a few pages here and elsewhere to learn the importance of "tables" in setting up neat looking pages.
