Web Design


Most people  introducing a site  are of the opinion that all it takes to start a  lucrative website is a little content, thrown in some  flashy pics and you got a  wonder on your hands. You couldn't be more off the mark. There is an entire  field dedicated to only this  element of the internet: web design.

Web design is an  industry which  converges on  building on your website both for the  audience, as well as for search engines for optimum indexing and page rank. A good  case in point of what  flawed web design can do to your site is the use of frames on your page. They might look  modish, but the search engines  are inconvenienced when trying to crawl pages with multiple frames on them, hence  close their eyes to them  absolutely. The  corollary? Your page never gets indexed and you  are forced to sacrifice on  prized traffic you would have  received from these search engines.

Don't lose heart though,  regard the following and you'll see your site doing  well in  rapidly!

1. Don't  make use of frames as I said  above. Enough said about that.

2. Get a  unique domain name to  describe your site.  shun free hosts as they have a lot of downtime and nobody takes a site  supported by a free host  sincerely. Use a  succinct and  effortless to  recall domain name, and  employ hyphens to  demarcate words in the domain name if  necessary.

3. Keep your pages  direct. Use  many pages for a  subject if need be, but keep all pages  inside the limits of 400-500 words. Put yourself in the visitors’ shoes; would you  prefer  scan  non-stop lines of  wording? I think not. People would  more willingly read a page and then read the  subsequent page  at a subsequent time.


4. Avoid  unwarranted  employment of  drawings and  visuals. Images  are inclined to  retard the loading of your page, which can be quite a  vexation for people on dialup or on  sluggish connections. Nobody likes to wait for  long minutes for the page to load; they'll simply press the  return button and leave your website.

5. Make a sitemap of your site which has all the links in your site. This will  lend a hand to search bots crawl your site  without problems, and with  increased speed. You must avoid broken links at all costs. Nothing is more  exasperating than clicking on a link and then finding that it leads nowhere. It will also hamper search bots in indexing your site properly.
