Good Website Design
by Guri Jeff

Now days, every organization either big or small owns a website. But, there are just few websites who have higher return on investment (ROI) or large amount of visitors visiting websites everyday. This is because they have a well-designed attractive website. The appearance of the website is the first thing that one observes while browsing through. Therefore, it becomes a perquisite while designing.But before working towards design of the website, it is important to evaluate the kind of website you would be creating. The different types of website i.e. dynamic and static have different parameters for designing. Based upon your requirement, you can design an appealing and attractive website.
Features of a Good Website
Every website has different parameters for designing. But, there are certain features or parameters which remain same for a good website. They are:
Color Scheme: Selecting a right color combination is very important for your website. If your website is related to children, then select bright colors like red, orange, green, etc to attract their attention. While designing a professional website, it is important to select color scheme which are in-sync with corporate colors of the organization. The colors should also gel with the overall theme and type of services/products offered by the website.
Navigation: Navigation provides an intuitive way for visitors to follow. The navigation has to be uncluttered and concise, so that it is easier for visitor to browse through the website. You should preliminarily have consistent left and bottom navigation throughout the website.
Layout: Layout defines the structure of the website. Nowadays, website's web page real estate is 1024 X 768 resolution; web page real estate is the area in which website is covered as compared to full screen. The font size should be 11 or 12 pixels, so that the text is easily readable. Prefer to select a professional font face rather than fancy fonts.
Loads Quickly: Website should have graphics to make it appealing, but avoid having loads of graphics or scripting as it will increase the website load time. If websites takes more than few second to load, people tend to get annoyed and browse through another website.
Overall the website should have a user-friendly and well-organized professional look to attract millions of visitors.

I'm in great didgeon - how author can write Guide to create attractive website if her home page such badly built. Well, text may be useful, but it's presented miserable. What does it mean - massive sheet without any break, no paragraphs. Who supposed to be read that page -bright youth won't do that as they're looking for nice image, flash and interesting design. PEople with eye problem won't do that either as font is small and non attractive and mostly interflow with background.
Author write about colour and no any difference at all - is she write for scientific conference or for simple users as professionals would not accept that image, layout and colour?
Dull, boring and non imaginative content, presentation and text. I can not believe author has created hundreds of websites - i would not trust her any to create.

Business organizations have to realize the fact that many people just click away to some other website, because the website they are looking at is not professional looking or is not interesting enough. Only a well designed website can serve the purpose of its existence.
Once the website is designed up to the mark, then comes the role of SEO because a well designed website won’t serve it’s purpose until and unless it has a good search ranking. Globally India is the most sort after for such solutions. There are many companies in India that provide solutions for web designing ecommerce and website seo development and in their race of being the best Virtual Studio is leading the way.
