On
Internet,
way your website looks reflects very heavily on your business. It is a fact of life that people judge other people by
way they look, and
cyber world isn't any different. Potential customers judge your online business by
way your website presents itself. Take a second and think about what type of impression is your site giving.If you aren't satisfied by
image that your site presents, here are a few design aspects that you can possibly improve.
1. Graphics - Your business can't afford to have unprofessional looking graphics. All of
pictures on your site should have a purpose and be related to
page or section that it is placed on.
Moving or animated graphics can also detract from
effectiveness of your site. Let
amateurs use
neon green flashing banners screaming "CLICK HERE," your site will be much better off with clear, professional graphics.
2. Loading Time - Your whole site should have pages that load quickly. If you have a catalog of pictures on your site, be sure to make thumbnails that you can click for a larger picture. You should also specify width and height for all pictures. This way, all of
text can load on
page because it knows where
pictures are going to fit without having to load
pictures.
At
very least, concentrate on making sure that your main entry page is quick loading. Web surfers are impatient, don't make them wait too long, because it only takes one click of
back button and they may never see your site again.
