GUIDELINES FOR PROPER WEBSITE DESINING “Design” is a single word to describe the importance of a web design lay-out. When we talk about design, we are talking about the lay-out as a whole. From the textual content, inserted graphics, selected color and the concept of the website. But some people ignore the fact that in website designing, there are some “guidelines” to follow. According to Carl Doppler, CEO of Doppler Internet “Without following the guidelines, mistakes would arise that can be seen by your audiences,” where it could discourage them to see the site further. Did you violate some homepage design guidelines? What must you know in order to solve the mystery of web designing? In this article, we will answer those questions on your head. What is the Value of your site to the viewers? This is one of the most important issues in homepage design. Many companies have asked for the help of web designers, but it is sad to say that most of them do not follow all the guidelines. All they care about is the design and impact of its design to its viewers. Websites should also draw your target customers closer to you not mislead them. When customers want something, they typically inquire through search engines and take a few seconds to scan each of the sites the search engine drags up on their screen. They do not have all the time to look at every site. If you do not state your objective correctly, you will never earn a view on your website. Flexible Layout 28% of most corporate website settles for a static homepage. The frozen lay-out is easier to make, but it contributes on how it wows the internet users. Remember that customers have different monitor sizes with bigger or smaller resolutions. People with large monitors want to resize their browsers to view multiple windows simultaneously. Not everyone has high resolution, and not all have the same monitor size. A little bit of flexibility is needed. Example: We all know that smart phones are now used for mobile browsing and we at Doppler Internet we provide our clients the most compatible websites to boost customer’s browsing experience. Proper Use of Graphics If you are going to use graphic for your website, make sure that it is somehow connected with the article content you have provided them. The picture should not only be on lay-out but also on articles. People naturally get attracted seeing photos. You can add a photo then add a caption to it. Statistical value can be explained well using a graphic image mixed with the chart. This is an effective way for audiences to see the graph without imagining it from text representation. Make your Links Right Whenever you are working on your home page, do not ever put a link that is linking it back to your homepage. Almost 41% of the web designers fail to realize that putting links in your home page is a bad idea. On your website, you should put links on their proper places. Do not ever put a link that will redirect them to another page that they do not want. Give them quality links. One of the sins of web designers is when they sprinkle out large mass of links into a single article. The maximum you can place in an article to be considered as good links is two to three links. These are some guidelines that will help you craft a website where it follows the regulations set by search engines. Without proper knowledge, your customer might be disappointed with your website. Make sure they are strictly followed.
