When do I need to redesign my website?

04 May 2012

If you think whether your website needs redesign or not, please, review the following information and make your decision.

Your website design is outdated

The users can clearly see when the website is kept-up-to-date and when it’s not. The outdated websites with broken links, fuzzy images and unscannable text are mostly skipped right over. Your website doesn’t have to look spectacular and cool. But surely it has to look good and professional if you need to sell goods and services through your business website.

New brand

If you’re contemplating to change the complete brand and logo, redesign is definitely needed. Users quickly get accustomed to a certain set of color combinations and start associating them with you company. Therefore, if you need to convey a totally new idea in your business, the design should be created from scratch.

Functionality

Your website might still look good, but website functionality would require some modifications and improvements. Your site needs to be informative and show its purpose right away. Users are usually quite impassioned to search around on the website. The navigation of the website should be simple and lucid. Your navigation links should be short, descriptive and specific too.

Traffic

Your website may look amazing and be quite functional but meanwhile you don’t get enough traffic coming to your website. Lacking traffic is an indicator of the poor search engine optimization. The website design should be built correctly. Nowadays professional web designers create self-coded pages for better site optimization.

Business reconstruction

If your small business has expanded, you will definitely need website redesign. It’s a crucial moment because you don’t know how far your business can grow that’s why your web design should be easily extendable.

How to NOT create an annoying website design

03 May 2012

Have you ever thought that your website design can somehow annoy your visitors? Well, I hope you’ve done a great job and there’s absolutely no reason to worry about, but let me just point out some important issues to exclude whilst developing a website. Have you ever come across aggressive surveys which always follow you whilst you’re navigating through the website or flash headers which restart every time you click on the website? These design elements can really piss visitors off and make them displeased with your website. What was nice and attractive in the first place can start to annoy and disturb visitor’s concentration, making the reading part very difficult.

The fact is that many novice web designers immerse themselves deeply in their new ideas, to the point where they forget about the main purpose of the web design, which is; to clearly convey the message to visitors. They’re trying to strike people with their developer’s skill level and thus, make it too complex to comprehend.

Let’s figure out the top annoying things you should exclude from your website:

  • Popup windows and surveys – many add-on tools block the popup windows, and this is where the danger lies to miss the important information which is sent in these messages. All important information should be located on the website if you want to be sure the visitor reads it.
  • Background music – there’s absolutely no point to play music on every page of your website unless you represent CD/DVD disks or transmit certain radio stations online. The chosen background music might easily irritate your visitors and drive them quickly away.
  • Big font size – big font is usually associated with a loud tone of voice. The visitors may perceive such text as “shouting” or “constraint”. Nobody likes to be shouted at; therefore you shouldn’t consistently use big font unless you create a website for people with poor eyesight.
  • Small font size – if you want your visitors to read the information, try not to use small font. The website should be readable. If you’re interested in increasing the amount of your visitors, don’t make them to exert whilst reading your content.
  • Multiple layers – sometimes web designers overlap the page with multiple layers to convey the messages. It may be quite effective, but at the same time it’s brutally rude and annoying. Use persuasion in a mild way.

I’ve listed just a few issues which some web designers and web developers should keep in mind. If you have more annoying design elements in mind, feel free to share them with us. I’d like to know what you’ve come across in your personal work experience.
