Web design’s most important rule is to make sure your site performs under any condition such as different web browers. Not everyone uses Internet Explorer anymore. You also want to keep fancy graphics to a minimum. This can be overwhelming to your site’s visitors. Keeping your site simple is what attracts attention.

These are the rules of a good website design

1) Avoid splash pages if you want you site to load at a faster rate.

Splash pages are popular with most sites today but many of them have a lot of images and graphics that can slow down your computer. These lavish images and graphics don’t really have a purpose. They’re just fancy additions. What you want to keep in mind is how to keep your visitors on the site and having to many or “loud” graphics can send them away.

2) Avoid banners

Many site owners use banners on their page for commissions but many also have a lot of banners that just make your site look tacky. Too many ads and banners will just send your visitor’s off to your competitors site. Replace your banner ads with affiliate links to money producing products that will not show as ads and bring you more of a profit.

3) Make your site’s navigation easy

Navigating around your site should be simple enough for anyone to use. You want to keep you navigation simple by not using flash menus or multi-tiered menus that can easily confuse people. If it’s too hard for someone to navigate, they’ll just find another site to go to. Including a site map on your site will make it easier for a person to find what they want.

4) Make it easy for your visitor to know where they are

When a visitor to your site looks through all your web pages, they may not know where they are on the site so making it clear where they are is important. They will then know where they are without feeling lost. Just make sure each page has a clear title and your hyperlinks have a different color when it’s been visited. If your visitors are confused, they’ll leave.

5) Use less audio

Don’t irritate your visitors by adding too much audio or repeating it continuously. This will only make them leave. Music can amplify a visitor’s experience but you want to make sure you use your audio adequately. To do this, don’t repeat the music or audio and give your visitor’s control by allowing them to change the volume or to turn it off. Doing this will give your repeat visitors.
