Site Design Layout
It's been shown in studies that folks generally find all that flash and glitz to be vexing and distracting. Having six to eight frames on a page only causes confusion if not done properly. Keep it simple and try hard not to drive your web visitors insane.When it comes to site design, sticking with what is straightforward and straight-forward is usually the best. While you may want to Wow your readership with stunningly flashing, spinning graphics, withstand the urge. It has been shown in studies that folks usually find all that flash and glitz to be irritating and distracting. Having six to eight frames on a page only causes bafflement if not done properly. Make it simple and try hard not to drive your web visitors funny.
The most well liked layout is the 3-column model, as it works really well. You may find that many good sites have this layout with categories running down the left and updates, advertising and the like running down the right. While this will appear to be a bit uninteresting, readers love it because it is straightforward, straight-forward and simple to navigate.
Whitespace is another function of a good layout. Allowing for the reader to have space to rest their eyes is a plus for most designs. White space is as crucial as the layout itself.
Graphics should be used to improve the layout as elements that add to what's written on the page. It should be used as an extension of the text and should lend to further clearness about the topic. Graphics shouldn't overtake what's being conveyed ; it should only help to make the content clear.
Using Fonts
There is a standard for fonts that have worked well since prior to the World Wide Web started. In print design, paperspapers and magazines, the combination of Serif types for announcements and San-Serif type for text has always worked well.
This does not carry over to the web where Sans-serif fonts are the best choice because they are more easy to read on the screen. Up until recently monitor resolution hasn't been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it might blur together making reading trickier. If you're planning on offering a print-friendly page, you need to use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for headlines and Sans-serif for text ).
The second thing to keep in mind about using fonts is to limit the number of fonts you put on one page. Make it simple - two, perhaps three fonts at most. Good site design is straightforward to read. You can use some ornamental type font, but it will take away from the message you are trying to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new highres monitors, you need to stick with Sans-serif fonts where possible.
In web design, the most popular fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They are easy-to-read, Sans-serif and excellent for all website designs.
