Deconstructing the Features of Spectacular Web Design
Although the best design can sometimes be a subjective issue, certain sites epitomize clean and spectacular Web site design.
For those who don’t know which characteristics or interface symbolize visually appealing Web site design, we’re reviewing ParentsAsTeacher25.org to demonstrate the features that compel your audience to learn more and/or take action.
As you can see in the jpeg above, our prototype ParentsAsTeachers has the following features:
• Horizontal navigation enables visitors to expediently discover the information they are looking for on the Web site.
• Each link on the Web site is properly linked, maximizing each reader’s span of stay on ParentsAsTeacher25.org.
• Emphasized in white space and beige, the site is comprised of contrasting features and colors.
• On the top right corner of the page, three blue buttons instruct prospective visitors which actions to take. Additionally, if the end-user hovers over each button, the animated features are not only seamless but are appropriately designed to motivate the visitor to an appropriate call of action.
• The beige box on the right of the main text, titled, “updates,” reflects that ParentsAsTeacher25.org is maintained on a current basis.
• ParentsAsTeacher25.org demonstrates the importance of allowing the visitor to experience the site according to his or her own preferences. The first image on the site is of a little girl. Instead of using a talking head, a prominent play button enables visitors to watch or experience the Web site on their own terms.
In the end, a professionally designed Web site is the difference between turning on or off your site visitors. Obtain a consultation from the best web designers in Missouri.
