A Few More Keys to Good Web Design

 


Recent Company News

Here are a few basic things in terms of good web design that you should remember either when you are starting to design a new website or if you are looking to revamp an existing site.

1. A good place to start is keyword research. It is important to know what you want to highlight on your page for the search engines.

Ideally you want to work out what pages you need on the site, based on the keyword phrases that you either believe or find out people are looking for. Once you have this right you can put the pages into the navigation.”

2. Ensure that your headings are bold and appear consistently in the same place on every page. Consistency could well be the most important feature on your site just like many items in the design stage,.

3. Then you can make a blueprint of how you think your site should look. You can use index cards for this or full pieces of A4 as I prefer. Simply write your ideas for categories and tabs that you want on the papers and then you can separate them into the various groups for your navigation to create a map and layout of your page design.

4. Always make sure that unless you want to leave your site that all links should work so that each new page opens upin the same window. As soon as you viewer moves to another window you risk losing them on your site.

5. Use links on each page carefully. Search Engines and Google in particular get smarter by the day and stuffing every available link on every page is confusing to the engines. So focus, focus, focus.

So all you need to do now is get stuck in and go ahead with designing your site. If you would like some professional assistance on good web design you can contact us on the link above or call Wayne on 083 4533338. To view our website click here
