Building a
website is a real challenge. Often websites are created visually attractive,
but surprisingly there is little attention paid towards the website designing
errors.
“Mistakes
are the portals of discovery.” While designing a website, there are many
mistakes ought to occur that designers of websitedesign development services in New York need to take care of and fix
it.
Following
are some of the mistakes avoided by designers-
Lack of search box:
Search box is mandatory in every website. Negligence in creating a search box
makes things difficult for users when searching for products on the site.
Therefore, designers need to do set search function on the website to allow visitors
search the product on the site in an efficient manner.
Cluttered homepage:
The first thing visitors see on the site is homepage. In order to behold their
attention on the site, it is important to create a unique and creative
homepage.
But,
often designers create homepage with tons of unnecessary things that makes the
website looks cluttered. This makes visitors move on to some other website,
where designing is simple, yet creative.
Annoying navigation:
To create good website navigation, it is important to avoid few things like
flash, images, and few more. Wrong
placement of links and buttons also causes navigation problem.
Therefore,
to make navigation easy for visitors and easy to use few things are kept into
consideration by the designers like avoid too much of flash, images and sounds,
provide textual description for all links and alt text for images.
Bad content
structure: Content always helps
drive traffic towards the site. Unstructured website content distracts
visitor’s attention and makes them more towards other site. Subsequently,
decreases the traffic rate on the site.
Therefore,
proper placement of headings, sub-headings, paragraphs, margins between images,
bullets, and keywords is must. Content placement is done with use of HTML and
CSS.
Inconsistent
interface: Creating different designs for each single
page within a website creates confusion and is annoying to some extent.
No
matter how good the business is in providing quality products, but over
creativity creates confusion. Therefore, design should be aesthetically simple
and not confusing.
No call to action
button: To allow users buy your product, it
is must to add call to action button on the site. Designers who forget using
call to action make visitors simply walk away from site.
