Web Design Tips
-- Navigation should be clear and
consistent throughout all pages on the website
-- A
Privacy Link
should be included to give your visitors the assurance that
they won't be spammed by having their information sold or
passed on
-- Text links should be kept in blue
-- Use lots of White Space
-- Avoid the use of
Animation or Flashing Objects
-- SEO -
the site's design should provide for search engine
optimisation which is essential if it is to attract visitors
via search engines. Getting close to the top of search
engines is not a task for the faint of heart
-- The speed that your page/s load is vital - should
it take longer than 8secs to load, the chances are your
visitor won't have waited to view it
-- A Site Map offers your visitors a 'road map' to
follow whilst on your site. Search engines also love Site
Maps which will improve your site's rankings with them
-- Avoid designing your site with Frames. They are
confusing for visitors, designers & search engines don't
index them properly
-- Use CSS to ensure consistency in terms of look &
feel
-- The site should be design to accommodate all browsers
& screen resolutions
-- The site should be about the vistor ('me') & not so
much about the company ('you')
