Design Tips

One of the most important strategies in the world of internet marketing and business is the fact that you have to come up with ways of attracting potential customers. In the world of Internet marketing, one of the sure ways to keep the customers coming up is when you have an effective and at the same time an attractive website.

Web Design is nothing more than a conceptualization of various electronic media content delivery through the Internet in the form of technologies. This requires planning and modeling so that such data will be suitable for interpretation and display by a web browser or other web-based graphical user interfaces (GUI's). In other words, it must be suitable for viewing and very much understandable by the clients.

The rationale behind a web Design is to create a website that has a content presentation for the benefit of the end user. The elements used in making a website are text, bit-mapped images, forms that are placed on the page by using HTML, XML, or XTML tags. If you intend to display a more complex media you may opt for programs such as Flash, Quicktime, Java run time environment and other plug ins that can be infused into the web pages using HTML or XTML tags.

To further manipulate web pages, you may also make adjustments as to the various browsers' compliance with w3c standards. Web pages are either static or dynamic.

What are static pages? If your web site has static pages then the content and lay-out does not change unless manually done so by the owner of the website. However, if your pages are dynamic then the appearance will depend on the end-users input. Content may be changed by using client-side scripting languages such as JavaScript, Actionscript, media players, JScript, and PDF reader plug-ins, etc. To alter DOM elements you can use DHTML. In complex applications you may use server-side scripting languages (PHP, ASP, Perl, Coldfusion, JSP, Python, etc.

What should your website have?

As to the content, the substance should be relevant to the site to reach the targeted audience. The site must also be user friendly and its navigation is simple and reliable. The appearance must look consistent and uniform when it comes to the usage of the graphics and the text. It must appear convincing, professional and appealing to the eyes of the viewing public. Another important factor is that the site must also be easy to find through advertisement media and major search engines. In other words you must have an effective web Design to make this work. After all, your website will serve as the front liner in the ever emerging battle in the world of Internet Marketing. The competition is getting stiffer, so make it worth your while!
