Web Design: Tips To Help You

by Yakira Dalton

Great web design is essential these days to having a great online business. This can place you ahead of your competitors quite easily if done correctly. Not everyone knows what goes into a great web design though and that's where these tips come in handy.

Learning what it takes to design cleanly and efficiently is your first step, so continue reading for some tips which will teach you just that.

HTML5 video is set to become the next standard for displaying videos on the web and naturally, you should offer both a way in which users can stream your content through an HTML5 format as well as another format such as flash for those who have an older browser version.

No matter who your target audience is or what your site is intended for, you should always aim to keep loading time to ten seconds or less. A well-designed, efficient site should pop up in visitors' browsers in a matter of moments. The majority of online users demand instant gratification, and it is in your best interest to provide it.

Use ALT tags whenever possible. These helpful tags describe an image to a viewer, assisting the visually impaired, as well as those who prefer to browse without images. As an added bonus, some search engines include these tags in their rankings, so you may get a boost by using them.

Be wary of web hosting companies who claim that they offer unlimited bandwidth to their customers. Usually there is something that is written in the small print that is far different than that. In many cases people end up having problems when it comes to fair use policies.

Avoid using so-called "mystery meat navigation". This involves using unlabeled images or other elements for the site's navigation. In many cases, the visitor has to mouse over the buttons to even see what they do. Navigation is best kept simple. Use text links across the top or along the left side of the page.

Optimize load times on your website. If visitors must wait a long time for something to load, they will want to leave the site. Try reducing your number of graphics, Flash, and script on your pages, optimizing your HTML, using SSI files, using client and server caching, creating expire headings, and minimizing your JS and CSS coding.

If you are targeting a local population with your website, consider purchasing a country code top level domain. This will guarantee your domain name for that particular region of your country. A ccTLD is perfect for directing regional visitors to your site, when they may not have found it otherwise.

When you are designing your site, be aware of how many links you are using. The more links you have on your site, the more links you are going to have to monitor for "link rot". You do not want to have a bunch of dead links on your site because you included too many to monitor when you were developing the site.

As you have seen, designing a high quality web page does not have to be as difficult as you may fear. Once you know what you are doing, you can put together a website that runs smoothly and does not distract from your content. Just remember what you learned in this article.
