Designing your website can be a difficult task especially if you
decide to do it on your own and you have no experience.
There
are many websites and web hosts that provide tolos to allow you
to build your website, but if you have no knowledge of what
works and what does not work in web design, you could be setting
yourself up for a enormous fall.
Review the following suggestions,
implement them into your web design, and forget about being the
guy with a badly designed web page.
Suggestion #1 - Not Providing Information
One of the biggest design flaws of many different wesbites is
the lack of information. The best websites have tons of
information as well as FAQ sections wehre you can have the
majority of your questions answered immediately without having
to worry about contacting anybody.
Suggestion #2 - No Advertisements
Web surfers avoid advertisements, blinking text, and banner ads,
so if these exists on your pages they will simply ignore them
and leave. The biggest issue is that often times websites do
not have actual advertising, they do have a design flaw which
makes certain text appear as adevrtising.
You should avoid this
at all costs because persons will not look at this favorably.
Suggestion #3 - No Marketing or Search Engine Indexing
Another isuse many websites have is they do not put much
effort into website marketing or search engine optimization. If
you do not focus on this, it won’t matter how well designed your
site is because nobody will be able to visit.
Suggestion #4 - Too Much Text
Remember to break up text, smlal paragraphs, bold words,
subtitles, and the like. If you do not do this and simply have a
page of soild text, persons will more than likely leave than put
forth the effort to read your text. Be sure to avoid this!
Suggestion #5 - Chnage Color of Links
Make sure you allow links to change colors when individuals
visit one link. The reason for this is it gives persons a sense
of orientation as to wehre they are and how they got there.
If
you do not allow links to change to the normal purple for pages
already visited, this will cause annoyance for many web surfers.
Suggestion #6 - Don’t Include PDF
Don’t save anything on your website as a PDF file unless it is
very large and you do not have any other options other than
saving it as a PDF file. Regular information should be fast and
readily aavilable on the website without requiring users to deal
with a PDF file that slows down the whole operation and is
generally a pain for most Internet users.
