Рядок 1: Рядок 1:
Web design companies get a lot of business from people just like you. However, what those people don't know is that they can design an attractive website themselves. Don't fall prey to having someone else do for you what you can learn on your own. Begin by looking over the following information to better understand web design.
+
If you're someone who thinks all sites are exactly the same, you just have to go to a social networking site, such as Facebook, and then view hosted sites, including Yahoo or Google. The easily notable differences between these sites should tell you that web design is important. If you have the desire to become a great web designer, then get started with these tips.
  
Use a fixed-position navigation format for easy navigation for your users. This involves locking your site's navigation panel as visitors scroll down. This is good for visitors, but also for internet marketing professionals, because it helps facilitate the desired action.
+
You should frequently peruse various forums and sites to learn more about web design. Performing a simple web search can provide you with the information you are interested in at no cost to you.
  
In order for your site to bring in visitors, its navigation must be intuitive. Place your links so they can be found easily. Menus will make it a lot easier to navigate around your site. Make sure each page has a 'home' link.
+
Allow your users the ability to cancel something if they are not happy with what they typed in. These actions involve signing up for newsletters or email notifications, filling out forms, or searching the site for different topics or archives. Not allowing customers to cancel actions that they do not want to follow through with is unfair, and it is forceful, which may prevent those visitors from returning to your site or making purchases from you in the future.
  
Don't have an abundance of graphics on your site. Graphics and images are definitely necessary to help facilitate professionalism and appeal, but they can also facilitate clutter if you're not careful. Don't just use graphics to decorate the website; they should be used to make it better. Your site will be much more usable and user friendly when you minimize the use of graphics.
+
Ensure people can easily scan your information. There are a plethora of tests online that help gauge the usability of a particular website. Using bolding, color changes and breaks between sections of text makes your content easier to scan and makes it more likely that visitors will return. Important content that you do not want visitors to miss should always be placed at the top of each page. Each of these things needs to be given proper attention because they are what will help keep visitors coming back to your website.
  
Be careful when introducing new colors into the design of your website. You have to be certain that your text will be readable on top of the background colors you use. Reading dark text on lighter backgrounds is simpler than the opposite. Let some of your friends see your site and give you some advice before going live.
+
Always separate topics. If you have many topics on your site, try keeping them on separate pages. This will lessen the confusion some customers may experience, while it gives search engines a much broader view of your website, which could raise your rankings.
  
Test your site as much as possible. Running usability and user interaction tests early in the game can really save you frustration in the long run. Make sure you continue to test it as you grow and improve your site.
+
Make sure to preserve personal information that may need to be entered again by the same user of your website. If users register on your site, some of their data should be saved. This makes it easier to fill out forms, and is considered to be very convenient. This kind of "sticky" information saves your users time and effort, and they will likely appreciate the streamlining this kind of good design provides.
  
Check links carefully before you include them on your site. Make sure the links all lead to valid web addresses. The best time to do this is just before you FTP the page over to the server. If your visitors cannot access the information they need because of broken links, they will get frustrated and leave. Check your website regularly to make sure it works properly.
+
Make sure that your designs aren't that similar to other designs in your immediate niche. Visit the competition and compare it to your site. It should be obvious that websites that look the same will not make you stand out. You don't want to be generic!
  
 
Use free software to set up your own site. You can use a lot of free tools to assist your building of your website, so check into the software that is available to you. Instead, look around for a free product which has the tools you need.

Use a basic layout for your website so that you can understand the basic fundamentals of designing a website first. You can advance beyond the basics when you are more comfortable with the web design process.

Step up your creativity when you write your site's "About Us" page. Some websites "About Us" pages are very dull and boring. Therefore, it is a good idea for you to spice things up a bit! Give people a glimpse into who you are and why you love web design. Let them know what has inspired you and what your goals are.
  
No matter how flashy your website is, it is vital that you keep the sizes of your website's files small. Your website's loading time is directly affected by the file sizes you have on your site. It is always better to have your website load as fast as possible. There are still people who will be using your website that do not have a high-speed connection. Try to test your site regularly, especially with a slower dial-up modem. This will help you to know for sure that it will quickly load in every situation.
