Web Design Mistakes

Forescene web designers will be able to help you in setting up or refreshing your website and drive significantly more traffic to your site. Experience has taught us that the following are some of the main mistakes people make when designing websites and are to be avoided at all costs.

  1. Over use of Flash
    Moving images and clips that attract a customer’s attention but then also slow down the speed at which the site runs.
  2. Poor Search Results
    Badly constructed websites that do not relate to the search criteria of the visitor.
  3. Badly produced images
    Make sure you use high quality, clear and sharp images on your website, give your site a professional look.
  4. Browser support.
    There are now a number of different browsers on the market, make sure your site works on a wide range of browsers or customers will just go to another site rather than open a new browser to see your website.
  5. Music
    Do not include music; even the most loved song becomes annoying after the third time.
  6. Write for the Internet
    Avoid large blocks of text. Keep things simple, use bullet points and short paragraphs.
  7. Advertisements
    Ads are an important form of revenue generation but do not clutter your site with banners and offers.
  8. PDF
    Users find waiting for Adobe to open and downloading of files frustrating, therefore ensure there is a clear explanation of this on your site beforehad.
  9. Opening New Windows
    Opening a whole series of new windows puts customers off, and most know how to use the “Back” button these days.
  10. Display
    Avoid using clashing or confusing colors and fancy difficult to read fonts. Be careful when using colored text on backgrounds. Color-blind people may not be able to read your site.
