The Art of Web Design

The Art of Web Design:

Things I have learned:

- People come to websites for content, they like to update and know what everyone else is up to. So they decided to put the contact/updating bar first.
- You have to start thinking about how your visitors are going to navigate around your page or website, it has to be easy to see and do.
- How you place your information should resemble importance and meaning.
- Contrast and colour: Your colour can draw attention to your website but sometimes too much colour may have too much contrast. Such as a bright yellow background or a multicoloured background may be too busy/hard on the eyes. The visitor will not know where to focus.
- Fonts: Something such as a title or headline must be bolder and larger than the rest because thats what they developer wants the visitor to read first.
- Features: Offer features such as, a website that gives you options. Such as, colour, size or texture on a clothing website.
- Design is about SERVING PEOPLES NEEDS! :)
