Good Web Design


If you wish to have a pretty nice web site. In addition, keep these concepts in mind:
  • Text
    - Background does not interrupt the text (dark background with bright text, vice versa) 
    - Text is big enough to read, but not too big (font size 12 - 16) 
    - Clean and clear hierarchy of information 
    - Columns of text are narrower than in a book to make reading easier read on the screen
 
  • Navigation
    - Navigation buttons / links are easy to understand and use
    - Navigation is consistent throughout web site
    - Navigation buttons / links provide the visitor with a clue (using title tag in the link)
    - Frames, if used, are not obtrusive/ not crawl by the spider. 
    - Provide sitemap for large site. 
 
  • Links
    - Link colors coordinate with page colors (hover link and visited link should remain) 
    - Links are underlined so they are instantly clear to the visitor
 
  • Graphics
    - Buttons are not big and dorky
    - Every graphic has an alt label
    - Every graphic link has a matching text link
    - Graphics and backgrounds use browser-safe colors
    - Animated graphics turn off by themselves
 
  • General Design
    - Pages loaded quickly (more than 10 sec = bad) 
    - Every web page in the site looks like it belongs to the same site; there are repetitive elements that carry throughout the pages
