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.
