Having six to 8 frames on a page only causes misunderstanding if not done properly. Make it simple and try hard not to drive your web visitors crazy.When it comes to site design, sticking with what is simple and straight-forward is mostly the best. While you may wish to Wow your readership with stunningly flashing, spinning graphics, resist the urge. It has been shown in studies that folk sometimes find all that flash and glitz to be upsetting and distracting. Having six to eight frames on a page only causes bewilderment if not done right. Keep it simplistic and try not to drive your web visitors funny. The most popular layout is the 3-column model, as it works very well. You will find that many good web sites have this layout with classes running down the left and updates, advertising and so on running down the right. While this will appear to be a bit dull, readers adore it because it is simple, straight-forward and straightforward to navigate. Whitespace is another function of a good layout. Permitting for the reader to have space to rest their eyes is an advantage for most designs. White space is as vital as the layout itself. Graphics should be used to improve the layout as elements that add to what is written on the page. It should be used as an extension of the text and should lend to further lucidity about the subject. Graphics should not 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 before the internet started. In print design, newspapers and magazines, the combination of Serif types for reports and San-Serif type for text has always worked well. This doesn't carry over to the web where Sans-serif fonts are the top choice because they are more easy to read on the screen. Up until just recently monitor resolution hasn't been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it might blur together making reading more troublesome. If you're planning on offering a print-friendly page, you must use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for reports and Sans-serif for text ). The second thing to bear in mind about using fonts is to restrict the number of fonts you put on one page. Keep it simplistic - two, perhaps three fonts at most. Good website design is simple and easy to read. You may use some ornamental type font, but it will play down the message you are endeavoring to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new high-spec monitors, you should stick with Sans-serif fonts wherever possible. In site design, the most well liked fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They are easy-to-read, Sans-serif and superb for all internet site designs. ![]()
