The Key to Better
Websites [B] Design
Introduction
Importance of the
latter:
Design, design, design.
To put the wonders of a good design into perspective, imagine a when
we are purchasing a T-Shirt. First of all, what do we look at? The
design of the T-Shirt, of course. Well most people do, other than
the material factor. But let’s assume the all other factors are
constant, wouldn’t the design or looks, become the key aspect then?
Design
Putting oneself in
another individual’s shoes as usual. Here are another two
situations.
Situation A: A website
with good design and breathtaking graphics. (Good color schemes with
matching theme), pictures, (Optimum resolutions and relevant) and
proper fonts and word sizes.
Situation B: A website
inversely equipped with hideous graphics and pictures in terms of
resolution, quality and relevancy, (Red pictures with a bright green
background). Fonts used were not matching albeit too fanciful (Too
small, artsy font-types).
Situation A, visitors
that enter the website are immediately awestruck by the design and
artwork. The well placed pictures and designs will somewhat
symbolizes the positive nature of the company/website. As we know,
most people DO judge by impression.
As for Situation B, the
shabby environment due to severe lack of creativity and badly taken
pictures wouldn’t exactly help in attracting visitors. Fonts that
were hard to be read let alone comprehended and mismatching themes
in terms of color, isn’t exactly welcoming, is it?
Analysis: Now, the main
idea here is to always plan your websites, try to get other
individuals for feedback and perspectives. Each mindset might
differ, but at least you will get room for improvement. Don’t get me
wrong, even a plain website with proper design would generate plenty
of positive implications, but the key idea here is to at least
maintain an impressionable website.
