Top 7 Mistakes In Website Design

• When building a website or engaging a company to
  build a website for you its important to ensure
  your website does not contain any of these top 7
  mistakes in Web Design
• Website Design Mistake 1 Spelling Mistakes

  quickly and missed the normal spell check that
  you would do on marketing material. It is

  incorrectly on your website and you should double
  check all materials.

• Website Design Mistake 2 Using Frames
• This is more a technical mistake made by
  developers who are trying to cut corners and
  produce work quicker. By using frames URLs stop
  working, navigation becomes difficult and your
  page can not be book marked. All of this leads
  to a negative user experience and can
  dramatically affect your website.

• Website Design Mistake 3 Complex URLs
• Users of your site who like a certain page will
  at times try to remember the page so they can
  easily navigate back to the page. URLs which
  contain things like? asd987!89 become confusing
  to the visitor and will distract from further
  visits.

• Website Design Mistake 4 Non-Standard Link
  Colours
• When you are trying to link to another page
  within text most users are used to seeing blue
  links, so when you change the link colour this
  can confuse them and cause them not to click.
  When trying to navigate a user using text links
  try to stay with the standard blue.

• Website Design Mistake 5 Not Formatting A Print
  View
• Believe it or not, a percentage of your visitors
  will wish to print out your page so you need to
  ensure you provide a print view of your page that
  does not lose any important information.

• Website Design Mistake 6 Text Layout
• Newspapers break up their paragraphs into short
  and sharp sentence groups for a reason you
  should do the same for your website. By making
  short and sharp sentence groups you will
  entertain the reader for longer and achieve your
  goals of conversion.

• This is a major mistake made by some developers
  where they open an entire website into a pop up
  window. Users are comfortable with browsing your
  site in their browser not a pop up window. Dont
  over complicate your site and confuse your user.
• As you can see there are many mistakes that are
  often made with regards to website development
  and its important to avoid these mistakes. When
  hiring a developer make sure you ask them about
  these specific areas and see what other issues
  they are also aware of.
