To achieve the best web design, one must take into consideration the quality and commitment to achieve the appeal that will attract a viewer or customer.  This site will help in understanding the basic principles of good web design.

The Top principles of Webdesign 

  • Define your Purpose, and stick with it!

    If you are passionate about what you want to create, and want something to be expressed via your web site, don't let the technicalities ward you off from remembering what you are trying to create! It's important to stay focused - never forget what wonderful ideas you want to let the world know about!
  • Always consider your primary audience

    Who do you want your site to cater to specifically? Or would you like your site to attract and appeal to all users that come across it? It's your call, but make sure that your content reflects either subjects specific to a particular group, or varied to appeal to many different types of people.
  • Choose your website style to reflect your overall purpose.
  • Choose your content with a golden hand.
  • Page design - consistency, clarity, and being "user friendly"

    Pick your layout to represent what you want as your website's overall "look and feel."
  • Web Design has both Technical AND Artistic elements.

    Don't forget to be artistic and creative! Whether you are making your site for business purposes, or for personal / social reasons, the artistic element cannot be ignored. Optimal color combinations to reflect the "mood" of your website should be considered, as well as what graphics and design images you would like to add. Whether simple or eye catching, the artistic element visually represents what your website is about.
