The Process Of Creating Websites That Are Not Irritating
Beauty is supposed to be in the eye of the beholder, but you must be careful about your ideas when designing a website. Your website should definitely contained your ideas while being able to be attractive to your customers at the same time.
The job of a website designer is one that is often two fold. A website designer is responsible for creating great designs as well as avoiding creating designs that are not attractive to the majority. This is sometimes difficult if a client insists in some of the irritating aspects of website designing.
Some of you may not be sure what I am talking about when I refer to irritating, so I have compile a list to explain further.
Annoying Pop Ups:
Pop up windows are number one on my list even though some marketers have found it to be effective. I personally have not spoken to anyone that likes annoying pop ups on their computer screen.
Loud Flash Presentations:
Loud flash introductions is a feature that I really do not like to use, they can be a great tool for capturing your visitors attention, and at the same time be very irritating with the loud music. This is especially true for the flash intros that do not give the option of skipping the presentation.
Light Colored Fonts With A Light Background:
Using a light text color with a light background is really hard to read. A customer should not have to work their eyes too hard to read your content.
Fonts That Are Too Big:
Fonts that are too large may work well for the creator of the website, but for most of us, it looks sort of like a preschool book.
To Much Info On One Page:
A website that is full of content is wonderful, but there are ways to organize your content so that it is uniformed. Placing too many navigation choices in one page seems a little too confusing for my taste. The use of a drop down menu can do wonders in that situation.
What one person may find to be a well designed website, someone else may find to be not so wonderful. The way to avoid creating a web design that is acceptable by most is to keep everything in moderation.
