Web design tips!!!
  • Here are a few simple website design tips for
    creating a professional website.

6
Keep it simple..!!
  • This is the number one rule of any design,
    whether you work in digital or print media.
  • There's no need for extra bells and whistles on a
    website as they don't attract more traffic.
  • All you need are crisp photos or images and
    simple text that are well balanced on each page,
    with a few hyperlinks and a few buttons to
    navigate to other pages on your website.
  • Don't include flashing animations, auto-loading
    sounds or scrolling text.

7
Don't bury the main point..!!
  • Put the most important information on your
    homepage and secondary information only a click
    away.
  • That is, don't bury information three or four
    clicks from the homepage. If it has to be that
    far from the homepage, it isn't important.
    Eliminate it.

8
Working with images..!!
  • Make sure your image file sizes are small so that
    they load seamlessly and your page appears
    instantly.
  • Use compressed images in the site so that it
    loads faster.

9
No pop-up windows often..!!
  • There's only one thing more annoying than waiting
    for a page to load, and that's a pop-up window.
  • People don't like to have their web-viewing
    experience interrupted by pop-up windows
    especially ads.

10
Color schemes..!!
  • Choose a color scheme with three mild colors for
    your WebPages.
  • One should be your background. Light blue and
    beige work well.
  • Use one or two other colors for link buttons,
    your header and other design elements.

11
Fonts..!!
  • Choose a font that's simple and easy on the eyes.
  • The following fonts typically work well for
    websites
  • Arial
  • Georgia
  • Helvetica
  • Verdana
  • Times New Roman.

12
Pages..!!
  • Limit your page length to just one page scroll
    with creative designs.
  • Blogs and articles can be longer, but no one
    likes to scroll down a page too far to find the
    information they want.

13
Homepage links..!!
  • Include a home button on every page.
  • This way, your visitors won't need to click the
    back button on their browsers ten times to get to
    your homepage.

14
Contact links..!!
  • Put a contact link on every page.
  • It can be frustrating to search for contact
    information and not find it.
  • Keep yours in plain sight on all pages to make it
    as easy for your visitors to find.
  • After all, you do want to be contacted.

15
Don't use icon links..!!
  • Every link should be a text link, including the
    buttons at the top of a page.
  • It's okay to have a button shapes, but they
    should have a word on top of them. Ex Home
