Are you are
novice and struggling to get to grips with your new
web site design? Well let’s get through a few factors
on the does and don’ts on designing your web site.
Most new comers to web site designing make the most
simple mistakes and these simple mistakes could cost
you so many hours to fix and in some cases you will
might has well just restart all over again.
First of most novices create there site and get a simple
template set up, halfway through they create loads and
loads of pages and then it dawns on them… They forgot
to add a button to there navigation! This is one of
the biggest and most common mistake most people make.
You end up having to redo every single page, which can
take up some much time which in most cases its just
best to delete and restart all over again.
When creating a brand new web site the best thing to
do is to draw your plans out, just get your self-an
A4 pad and a ruler and start drawing out the layout.
Don’t worry if you don’t have good drawing skills cause
this is only going to be a rough layout. This is to
help you get a good understanding of what you really
want at first before you start getting down to the good
stuff. Make a list of all the buttons that you’re going
to have in your navigation menu. Go through them and
see if they need adjusting to suite your site keywords.
This will boost your SEO and help with your Google PR
and ranking.
Have your site all drawn out and have your colours
and navigation sorted? Then it’s time to start designing
your template. Using programmes like Dreamweaver and
Front Page will help you control what pages you are
creating and to help you set up a template within the
software. Also a great way of keeping on top of things
is learning how to use CSS. CSS is a fantastic code,
which helps you control all the html tags from a single
style sheet. Want different colours for your backgrounds,
then simply change it in CSS. No need to change every
single page on your site. Want different buttons? Again
CSS is your friend. Just always keep in mind when creating
your first page is that it will be your main template
for the rest of your site, so don’t go mad and start
creating loads and loads of pages from your first page
cause this could so much trouble with adding new stuff
on your site. Always make sure your site is ready to
go straight from the word go, if you are hesitant then
you should not start designing till your hundred percent
confident that your ready to start moving to the next
stage.
Again CSS is your friend, there are many sites out
there that will teach you how to learn the basic of
CSS and html. Use Google and search on CSS Tutorials
and HTML Tutorials and you will find hundreds of tutorials
that will start from novice to expert.
