Common Mistakes to Avoid In Web Design
Common Mistakes to Avoid In Web Design
Hi,
The performance of a website relies on good web design, while making sure that common mistakes are avoided. The website must be highly usable to visitors enabling them to easily respond to the call to action on each page.
Here are some specific aspects to keep in mind as not doing these can make the difference between success and failure with web design :
1. Pay attention to updating your site regularly
2. Contact information must be prominently displayed
3. Links must be checked regularly to ensure they lead to the right information pages
4. Flashy designs, scrolling text and graphics that hurt the eye must be avoided as not only do they increase page load time, but are also extremely annoying.
5. Be mindful of simple things like not disabling the back button, opening all pages in new windows, a riot of colors, multiple fonts that are inconsistent and other frills that only distract the visitor from his purpose.
6. Feature a site map across all pages of your website so that visitors can easily navigate to the page of their choice.
7. Make sure you track visitor activity on the site to improve areas that need it.
8. Ensure that visitors don't leave the site because they do not know how to find their way around.
9. Always make sure that the content is legible.
10. Some sites tend to have audio or video playing automatically as soon as the web page is opened. This can be annoying to visitors.
