The Importance of Good Website Design

Website design consists of various factors and all the improvements that are needed by the business. This is necessary so that there is a better flow of traffic. In addition, it is important that the content including the audio, the text, the image, the links, the video, are well optimized. This will make your visitors you feel comfortable while browsing your website and will visit more often. Following are some of the recommended areas to pay attention to.

Speed

Your website should load as fast as you can otherwise your visitors will move on to the next site. This section is of vital importance for search engine optimization. There is compelling evidence that 40% of internet users leave a website if it takes more than 3 seconds to load. Loading speed can be accomplished by ensuring that your images are optimized and that you do not use a lot of images. It is also important to get a hosting service that include site accelerators and cache systems.

Simplicity

Many developers make the mistake of loading the page with many menus, sub-menus, search boxes, tag clouds, social media buttons everywhere. A good website designer concentrates in functionality and strong content. A good combination of optimized images along with strong content will attract more users.

Navigation

The content of a website must be organized in a logical and simple manner. All pages and sections must be relevant, have a specific function and provide value. Ensure that the pages do not contain any broken links. All your links must have a destination that is relevant to your statement.

Colors

Choose that are in line with your presentation and your products. Select color combinations that offer good contrast so that each statement is easy to distinguish and read. Do not use many colors. Choose clear backgrounds and dark letters, avoiding black backgrounds or with very strong colors.

Typography

When creating your content use fonts with an appropriate size keeping in mind your target audience. Keep in mind that using innovative fonts might end up being replaced by a browser’s default font if it is not available. Your font of choice should match your intended brand. Be consistent in the use of the same typography for the entire website.

Images and animations

The use of animated images, sliders, and video clips might not provide positive results. Visitors will hardly spend any time viewing your slides, or video clips. They are more interested in your website content that in your pretty pictures. Always use professional images on your website. The use of simple but professional images will greatly improve your content and the quality to your website.

Consistency

Be consistent in the design of a website. Ensure the proper flow of your content from one page to the next. Improper flow from one page to another give a negative impression. The same fonts, colors, and typography should flow through your website.

Cost of Building a New Website

Website Design Cost

When it comes to setting up the price of a new website, there are several components that need to be taken into consideration. Aside from the overhead, we will look at some of these components and how they affect the cost of building a new website. Please note that every website design company have their own way of estimating cost and the process outlined here might be different from other design companies.

Website Type

The first component that we look at is the website type. A website type may fall into one or more categories. Following are some of the categories that we use to classify a website:

• Brochure type website
• e-Commerce website
• Educational website
• Information website
• Landing Page
• Personal website
• Social Media website
• Content Management Systems (CMS)

A short explanation of these types of websites can be found in our website at sbnai.net. Each website type has its own features, advantages and disadvantages. In addition, each website type may be further classified. For example, a client might want to have an e-Commerce website but would also like to have a brochure website. The final type of website is usually determined after interviewing the client.

Theme

The look and feel of a website are important but not as important as functionality. Flashy websites tend to be slow to load and not easy to maintain. It is important to pick a theme based on the website content and functionality rather than how pretty it should be. The cost of the theme will depend on whether is built from scratch or customized from a template.

Website Content

Another component that we look at is the content of the website. This in itself falls into a one of several areas such customer supplied content, designer developed, or third party provided. The cost of developing content can be high depending on the approach. It is highly recommended that the client provide the content since that he/she want to disseminate.

When providing content to a website developer it is very important to provide original content (as opposed to duplicate information from another site). It is also very important to ensure that the content is accurate and it includes good links to/from reputable sites. Good, original, and accurate content is the first step towards good search engine optimization (SEO).

The website content should also include a good number of images with proper descriptions. Loading too many images on a website is not recommended due to performance issues. Images with no descriptions server no purpose on a website.

Features

Features such as online forms, blogs, data capture, animation, etc. will add to the cost of building a website. Some features are necessary, while other are nice to have. Work with your website designer to determine what features are necessary. Your website designer should be able to provide a good list of features based on past experience.

Products / Services

If building an e-Commerce site most likely there will be a need to have a shopping cart, an online catalog with products, and the ability to pay online. Each product and/or services require a description, a price, shipping information, and attributes such as size, color, material, etc. The more products and or services, the higher the cost of building your website. Some clients are willing to take on loading their own products which will help in maintaining the cost of building a website low.

Website Publishing

Before a website can be published, it needs to be reviewed and approved by the client. The review process can be an extensive one with change requests and communications back and forth. That review can also add to the cost of building the website. It is important to have good and clear communication with the website designer from the beginning of the process. Please note that involving a third party after the website design is approved will greatly affect the final cost of building a website.

As explained at the beginning of this article, every website design company might have their own process, but for the most the above components hold true for every design company. Website Hosting, Domain Registration, and Miscellaneous costs are not included in this article.
