Press Release Summary: A lot of website designer and web developers will try to tell
you that your website design is the most important part of your web site. They are
only partially correct. Your web site design is an integral part of your website.


Press Release Body: What does the internet's most profitable websites like Amazon
and Google have in common? They have a website design that is plain, simple and
easy-to-use. Most of the successful online ventures don't rely on fancy graphics or
animations to sell their products. Instead they concentrate on a web site design
that is usable and informative. At the end of the day, you want to impress people
with your product and services and not with your technical prowess (unless you are
an IT company).

Most of the Website Developer make the mistake of using extravagant graphics and
flash animations that load very slowly and annoy users. Most People don't want to
see a flash introduction to your website, they are more interested (thankfully) in
the products and services you offer. If they don't find information quickly, they
will click on the back button of their browser to return to the search engine that
bought them to your web site.

What do my customers want?

It is very important that you understand what your customers want. You have to learn
the internet habits of your target audience and develop a web site design and
graphics your customers will find attractive and useful. As a web site designer, I
ask umpteen questions of my customers to understand the target audience of their web
site.

Only then we can develop a website design that adds value to my customers business.
Make sure that the graphics and language you use on your website is what your target
audience finds useful. If you were an author of a children book you will use
language and graphics that are fun to children. If you are a medical store, your
website will have a serous tone. No matter who your target audience is, the content
of your website has to be informative.

Compatibility & Usability

Make sure that your website design is compatible with all sorts of browsers.
Although Internet Explorer is widely used but new browsers like Firefox are fast
gaining ground and more and more users are switching to Firefox because of security
and robustness.

It is very important that your web site design makes it easier for users to find
information on your web site. No information should be hidden behind more than three
clicks and if possible try and provide a good search ability if you have quite a bit
of information.

There is no substitute for quality content

A lot of website designer and web developers will try to tell you that your website
design is the most important part of your web site. They are only partially correct.
Your web site design is an integral part of your website. However there is no
substitute for quality and informative content. On any day I would trade-off quality
content with high appeal visuals. In my opinion a web site design process should
revolve around providing quality content in a visually appealing way.
