Web-site building: one big learning curve...

When considering how you want your web-site to look, a wise thing to do is peruse the internet to see what is already out there. This may sound like an obvious thing to say, but, as we all know, web-sites appear every single day which break more than a few basic rules. Here’s how you can make sure that your web-site crams as much data into a small space as possible, without forfeiting the graphic layout.

1) Look at the web-sites of companies who have already dealt with this conundrum: when it comes to the ever-increasing issue of needing to squeeze as much information as possible into a few web-pages, IT heavy companies – that’s to say, IT companies who advertise lots of web solutions such as document storage , data recovery and film and sound archiving to name but a few – have it hard. They’re selling yet more web-based solutions, and all these things need to be written about and can’t always be demonstrated with a video. This fact means that they have become very adept at creating multi-functioning web-sites which both look good and really have everything in the right place. Chances are that whatever field of sales you are in, you won’t have as much to write about as they do. Looking at how they make their websites accessible can be extremely key and stop you from making amateur mistakes that frequently put potential customers off.


Your best bet is to do your home-work. Find out how he or she is able to offer such a low price

2) Don’t always go with the cheapest web designer: so what that one guy charges half of what everyone else does. Is this really a good indication of quality work and good things to come? Think about it: would you walk into a car showroom and buy the cheapest car they had, even if the car looked like a beauty? We’d like to think you wouldn’t. Your best bet is to do your home-work. Find out how he or she is able to offer such a low price and, if the answer doesn’t explain a lot then seriously consider whether you want to allow this person to work for you.

3) You can be different: there’s a reason why many web-sites look the same, and it’s simple – people are unwilling to take risks. Taking risks, however, is exactly what great graphic designers are known for. Break out of the mould and you’ll soon see other people sitting up and taking notice in the very near future.

For more tips, this time on organizing your web-site so that the graphic designer will have an easier time when it comes to designing, see the video below.
