5 Simple Tips to Successful Web Designs

Shifted Pixels are web design experts. We have provided 5 tips and recommendations for successful website designs.
  1. Navigation – make sure your website is easy to navigate by creating clear, concise links to each page from the main homepage, and also create links between pages within your website that contain related content. For example if you have an ‘About Us’ section detailing what services/products your company provides, make sure you create links in this page to the other relevant pages containing information about your prices, services or product catalogues, so that visitors can easily find out more if they want to.
  2. Layout – Most Internet users are very experienced at visiting websites. Most visitors will literally scan a website in a few seconds and decide instantly if they want to stay and learn more or move on. It is therefore vitally important that the layout is attractive and easy to read, and free from clutter or too many adverts. Messy, unorganised websites will put people off immediately, as will websites that have more adverts than content.
  3. Loading Times – increasingly thanks to broadband, the internet is faster but not everyone will have quick loading times, so it is important that you minimise your website file sizes (graphics, photos, flash etc) so that your loading times are quick for all users (particularly with the take up of your smart phones – this has become very important). People simply will not visit your website if it is too slow and takes longer that a few seconds to load up each page.
  4. Social aspect – a good way to try and encourage visitors to stay longer on your site and visit again in the future is to set up social media functions such as blogs and forums.
  5. Browser Compatibility – not everyone uses Microsoft Internet Explorer, so make sure your website is compatible with all browsers available, including the latest versions of Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome etc
