Seven daft things not to do to your website

Written by Gareth Davies


Continued from page 1

Keep online enquiry forms down to essential info only. Keep it simple but getrepparttar information you need. Quick and easy signup forms can still be effective and you could always chose to offer a short form and a longer option - that wayrepparttar 140161 user can decide which option is best for them.

5. Complex rollover navigation systems

Complex rollover navigation bars using JavaScript or a similar code can seem like a great option and you can be excused for wondering why this is seen as a bit of a no-no.

The reason why these rollover or drop downs are not always such a hit is that after analysing user behaviour on a number of websites, it shows that very few people seem to use rollover button options more than one deep. In essencerepparttar 140162 idea that these navigational tools made things easier for users seems a little flawed.

The simplerrepparttar 140163 navigation is,repparttar 140164 more it will connect with users. Limitrepparttar 140165 options and use clear common sense descriptive labelling for buttons and this will often out-perform a complex roll over approach. Keepingrepparttar 140166 navigation simple also makes for smaller file sizes and quicker loading pages.

6. Excessive movement & animation

Contrary to popular belief, constant movement and flickering may not be a successful way to engage a website user. The reason being is that web users are developing a level of ‘advertising immunity’ or what Jakob Nielsen of www.usit.com has referred to as ‘banner blindness’.

Banner Blindness is a technique surfers have developed to filter out adverts and promotional material. They have learned after some experience that these types of ads are generally unhelpful and so are less likely to click on them. So if you use a lot of moving pictures and flickering images on your website you can runrepparttar 140167 risk of key areas of your website being ignored.

Where once banner ads got reasonable click through rates,repparttar 140168 number has fallen dramatically inrepparttar 140169 last few years. A safer way to promote important areas ofrepparttar 140170 site is via static buttons that are clearly identifiable and use descriptive language to tellrepparttar 140171 user which page they lead to.

7. Lots of links out to other sites from your homepage

When time and effort is put into attracting a visitor to your site why would anyone want to give that user a chance to leaverepparttar 140172 website on arrival? It makes sense to avoid placing lots of links out from your homepage to other sites - unless you’re an advertising or affiliate website.

Visitors are your prospects. You work to get them there and your job is to keep them there and direct them to your key destination pages. If you need to link out to partners from a top-level page on your site, then think about creating an internal page for this purpose and link to that from your home page.
