The Best Web Design Tips You'll Find

By Manny Rutz


There is no doubt designing a website from scratch can be a bit intimidating specially when you don't have all the pieces together. You need to know exactly what look and message you want to send to your visitors with your design. In this article we hope to provide you with a few ideas and tips to do just that.

My first tip to you is to have a favicon for your website, a favicon is that simple little icon next to your site's URL. If you have a unique icon it will get noticed and when people bookmark your site it will stand out from the others because of the favicon. You need to have consistency through your design and make sure every piece matches.

If you are creating a commercial website make sure to make the process of entering information on your site as easy and smooth as possible. People are naturally lazy and they like things to be simple and straightforward. If you have your site structured correctly your visitors will have a positive experience and will return in the future.

Make any logos on your website link to the home page. People have learned to be accustomed to a few things, including menus on the left, headers at the top and logos which lead back to the front of the site. Visitors will become frustrated if there is no easy way to return to the home page. Your site is much easier to use if your logo is clickable.

Make sure all your links are updated, and working properly. Good web design relies on being user friendly, and broken links are frustrating to your visitors. To prevent these things from happening, create a time frame at regular intervals where you check all the links for proper functionality.

Hopefully these tips help you and you now have a few more ideas on what it takes to structure and design a good website. The more you research and apply the better your site will look in the end, good luck to you.
