Mistakes To Avoid In Creating A Well Designed Website

I want a well designed website, and so does every other web-savvy person I know. You don’t put up a website just for show. If you’re a business owner, your website represents your brand and should successfully market your products or services. You want your visitors to stay on your website and eventually make a purchase. This cannot possibly happen if browsing the site itself becomes an excruciating experience for your visitors. You might have exerted so much effort in creating your website, but you probably committed a few mistakes along the way. I see these mistakes all the time when I surf the web. Let me share a few that I’ve noticed.

I hate clutter. Clutter is the mother of all web design mistakes. Clutter happens when a designer or his client want s to display too much all on one web page. It also happens when you don’t plan in advance and realize in the middle of building your site that you want to add several more elements to the page. Too many badges.Too many colours and too many fonts! Too many images that don’t complement the layout. Too much of everything else. Clutter on the homepage is a total turn off. If your homepage is a mess, it leaves a negative impression on your prospective customers. Ask yourself this question: if you can’t even come up with a decent website, why should they hire you?

Just because a designer uses flash or animation, it doesn’t ensure that he can come up with a well designed website. Too much flash can actually be irritating, and takes a more time to load. If you own a CGI animation studio, then perhaps all those flashy Flash elements would be appropriate. If you’re selling embroidery supplies on the other hand, all that animation probably won’t be necessary.

Online Classrooms vs. Physical Classrooms

Going to school means sleepless nights for learners as they do their assignments and prepare everything they need so they won't be late for class. Everyday commute is one of the tough stuff every student needs to take care of, especially if they don't have a car of their own. If you live in a place where there is high traffic all the time, then you need to prepare all the more. That's for those who go to out to attend traditional schooling. The case is totally different for those who attend online education. You just need to study your lessons, do your assignments and post these on your virtual bulletin board, and take breaks from time to time, without waiting for the bell to ring. You can study in your pajamas, no need to hop in the car and drive long hours. Now that's a different way to go to school isn't it? There's a huge difference when it comes to virtual and traditional education. You just need to pick which one works best for you. Both allows you to ...

On Real Books And Ebooks

I may have been a fan of the traditional book, but I cannot deny the fact that I also love to read books using my Kindle especially when I travel. This offers a lot of convenience on my end because I do not need to carry a full bag of books, I just have to bring my electronic book reader with me when I go out. :) But when I prefer to stay at home especially during weekends and holidays, I still hold a real book. That enables me to save on electricity costs as well, since I need to charge my Ebook reader so I can use it again as opposed to the traditional book . With the real one, you can just flip the pages and not worry about grabbing the charger next to you. All you need is a well lit place so you can read the contents. What about you? Which would you prefer? A real book or an electronic one?
