Published on August 17th, 2011 by admin. Filed under Uncategorized
Everyone loves to have a good looking impressive website online. For this reason, people take time to decide on the best design and layout of their company-s website. What are the basic tips to guide you when building a website?
Simplicity
Simplicity should be the ideal watch word that should guide you in creating a website design. Adding too many frills and content may end up confusing the user. The best websites are those that are functional and simple to use. If your web visitors cannot figure out the purpose of your website within 30 seconds, you have failed.
Navigation
Make sure that your website has clear easy to navigate links to make it easy for users to visit various pages. One way of doing achieving this is by making use of a site map. It also helps to keep the page simple and not over cluttered with too much information.
Light pages load faster
Unless, absolutely necessary, avoid adding flash content or too many images. They make the web pages heavier and this takes longer to load. Light pages without flash and too much images are better.
Remember SEO
Build a website that is user friendly as well as search engine friendly. Incorporate SEO techniques into the site from the build up stage.
