GOOD WEBSITE DESIGN:
A good looking website can give a visitor a reassuring feel of professionalism. But they have to find the website first and if they can not find the site in search engines they will go elsewhere. In our view a good website will look good but will also:
Be easy to find in search engines
or visitors will go elsewhere. Search Engine optimisation - optimising the code of each page to make it search engine friendly.
Download quickly
or they will go elsewhere. Optimising the code of each page and the file sizes of images so they download fast
Be easy to use
or they will go elsewhere. Making the navigation clear and simple and the same on every page so the visitor knows where they are at all times
Offer good & relevant content
or no one will come back. Make the sure the content is what the visitor wants - say what you do and then do what you say.
Be disabled friendly
or you could be taken to court. The Disability Discrimination Act requires that websites are accessible. Check your site here: WebXACT
Be secure
or visitors will go elsewhere.
Work on different computers and browsers
or visitors will go elsewhere. We test our websites on PC, Mac and Linux and use IE5.5, 6 & 7, Mozilla/Firefox, Opera & Safari browsers.
Website Build Process:
Discuss what you want from your website. This could include:
Information on your products and services
