Media Taskforce - What you should know about Website Design

There are only a handful of Web Sites that master design and structure in an efficient and economical way. Therefore, it is important that you have a basic understanding of what makes a web site successful. In an environment where your competitor is only a mouse-click away, it is essential to follow some basic rules to increase the efficiency of your on-line presentation.

		1. Your message has to come across in a coherent and swift manner. All of your site's elements (titles, text, images, graphics, etc.) have to contribute towards a good and clean presentation. Sites are often too busy (too much text, animated spinning images, unnecessary sound files, etc.). Ask yourself,with every element on your page, how it contributes towards your message and if it is really necessary. So often in web design: less is more.

		2. Your text, as good as it may be, is only as good as the end user can read it. Small and unreadable type, busy backgrounds, strange color combinations etc. diminish readability. On a computer monitor, black text on white background is the most comfortable to read. You further do not come across professional if your web site has misspellings, typos and bad grammar. Do proofread your text carefully.

		3. The content of your web site should attract visitors, keep them interested and encourage them to come back time and again. If your site has no content, it has no value. Keep your information to a minimum, sharp and right on the money. Update often. Whatever your message is, stress its benefits to the visitor.

		4. Easy navigation is critical to success. If your site visitor is lost, he/she will quickly leave your site and not return. Keep navigation clear and simple.

		5. Make sure your graphics are not too large. They will result in long extended down load time. Your web audience will grow increasingly inpatient with long down loading waits. Adjust your website to the technological infrastructure of your web audience.
