Essentials Of Web Designing

By Jacob Walker


A great web site design is very important to a company. It is the company's face to the world. Aside from being packed with useful information, a good design is easy to navigate for consumers who are less techie. The best way to render an effective web site design is to stay true to its objectives.

Another thing to remember is domain registration. Domain registration is one of the factors that determines the credibility of a website. This is especially true for search engines. Domain names that are ten-year-old and more would certainly initially gain the confidence of search engines compared to newly registered ones.

Make sure also that the web page loads fast. A good web site design takes only a few seconds to load the page, otherwise, it is so easy for visitors to leave the page and look for another competitor website; or close the browser altogether. It really takes only a few seconds to impress a prospective customer and so fast loading of a web page is necessary.

If there are must-do things in designing a web site, there are also must-not-do to ensure high ranking in the result list of various search engines. Blacklisted web sites contain spams and other information meant to mislead online users. Posting videos and loads of images also causes the loading speed to slow down. So keep the web pag (particularly the home page) simple. Simplicity is everything, it directs your customer to find the information he or she needs right away. A simple web design also helps search engine spiders crawl a web page fast.

And ultimately, the website administrator needs to post relevant, informative and keyword-rich content on a regular basis. Twice to thrice a week is ideal. This is how blogs come into play: blogs offer a better flexibility in writing updates about the company and its products. Content designed for online readers drive traffic to a web site. But it's important to include or share links only with credible domain names to avoid being blacklisted in search engines, such as Google.
