Web Design Layout
It's been shown in studies that people usually find all that flash and bling to be annoying and distracting. Having 6 to eight frames on a page only causes confusion if not done properly. Keep it simplistic and try to not drive your web visitors funny.When it comes to site design, sticking with what is straightforward and straight-forward is mostly the best. While you may want to Wow your readership with incredibly flashing, spinning graphics, withstand the urge. It has been shown in studies that folks customarily find all that flash and bling to be upsetting and distracting. Having six to eight frames on a page only causes confusion if not done right. Keep it simplistic and try to not drive your web visitors funny.
The most popular layout is the 3-column model, as it works well. You may find that many good websites have this layout with categories running down the left and updates, advertising and the like running down the right. While this could seem to be a bit boring, readers love it because it is straightforward, straight-forward and straightforward 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 vital as the layout itself.
Graphics should be used to enhance 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 clarity about the subject. 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 before the internet commenced. In print design, paperspapers 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 best choice because they are easier 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 are planning on offering a print-friendly page, you need to 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 - 2, perhaps three fonts at most. Good website design is straightforward 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 highres monitors, you must stick with Sans-serif fonts wherever possible.
In website design, the most popular fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They're easy to read, Sans-serif and excellent for all website designs.
