The Start of an Idea

Welcome to your big adventure. This section will help you with some basic ideas for planning your websites appearance. In its purest form, the overall look can be broken down into three essentials: theme, functionality and personality.

Theme is all about the feel of the site. Is it a personal site? Then your look should then reflect on who you are. It will be a representation of your image. If the site is for fussiness, then you will need a look to reflect the image of the business. For example, you won't be looking for dark colours, hard edges and metallic designs if your business sells teddy bears.

Functionality is crucial to a user-friendly website. Is it easy to navigate? Does it avoid clutter and flow in a manner that does not promote confusion for your visitors? Links should be easy to find and should allow users access to further information should they seek it. The idea here is not to cram as much information on one page that forces your visitors to wonder where they should be looking, but rather to spread the material out with easy to follow links to more information. Simplicity is key to easy navigation.

Personality is the fun essential. This is the uniqueness of the whole package. With careful choosing of graphics and words, your website or your company's website will breathe with a life of it's own. Think of it as a personal narrator or tour guide that adds that spark of interest to keep your visitors returning. Keep the personality addictive and, as in life, you will gain not just visitors but long-term friendships as well.
