Does My Website Need A Redesign?
By Dexter Zafra The internet is changing so fast. With the emerging of new Web technologies, it make some websites older,obsolete and incompetent in this new cyber age. New versions of browsers may require changes in design of your website CSS styles. Color schemes, fonts and even the layout, etc. For these and other reasons, it may be necessary to make a major overhaul of your website occasionally. This rebuild also will give you a chance to sharpen the focus of your website based on your experience thus far. Just take for an example; I have redesigned www.ex-designz.net to CSS layout and adhere to W3C Web Standards guidelines. Our gaol is to deliver the maximum benefits to our users - today and in years to come. It is easy to spot websites that need major revision: they look old, obsolete or appear to have been designed by an amateur. Your website needs to capture and engage your visitor's attention. If not, they will move on to your competitor. A common question asked by many webmasters is: "Why my site visitors are not returning? - Your web page is full of sophisticated animation and graphics taking forever to load. - You do not have your own product - instead you have links to many affiliate or network marketing programs, you have never bought the products or services and have no knowledge of their quality or suitability. - You respond to email enquiries as and when you feel like it rather than promptly. - You don't provide sufficient contact details on your page so that people can contact you easily. - You have a hit counter that keeps on being inflated by you visiting your own site to see how many hits you have generated. - Your advertising and promotion is non-existent or is inconsistent and poorly focused. - Your web site does not lead your customer through a sales process. - You expect that having a web site is all you need to do to make money on the net. Business success on the internet demands a "real business" approach that is professional and focused on the customer or client. Real businesses know the profile of their likely customers and have a marketing plan for how to reach them in the most cost-effective manner. They are consistent in their advertising and promotion activities. They track the results of all activities so that they know what is working and what isn't. Decisions can be made on facts rather than guesses. Full contact details are provided on a real businesses web site so that customers and potential customers can easily contact them. They are customer service oriented and answer e-mails promptly. They also provide a full guarantee that they honor without question. As they know their potential customers, they ensure their web site is easy to navigate, quick loading, adhere to Web standards, no bloated HTML code, and provides the information their potential customer needs to decide to make the purchase. Very often, it means that you have completely redesign or rebuild your website to make it professional. Here are the 15 steps to make your site user friendly and stand out from the rest. 1. Define A Clear Purpose 2. Create A Clear Theme Throughout Your Site 3. Provide Valuable Content 4. Harmonize Text And Graphics 5. Create Site Interactivity 6. Simple Navigation 7. Build Trust And Credibility 8. Web Usability 9. Site Loading Speed 10. Research Your Competition 11. Keyword Density 12. Clean up Bloated HTML Code 13 Allow Users an Option To Sort Records 14.
