Graphics

A good website must fit into the company’s corporate design. Otherwise, the recognition effect and the corporate image disappears blurred. If there is no corporate design exist, this must be addressed prior to the site. On the other hand, is of course a site other than a printed catalogue and must be treated as something independent, remember that one-to-one adaptations do not work!

Layout

With the layout is not only meant that a good, i.e. clear, minimalist and corporate design appropriate, layout is designed for the page. A website consists of many individual sub-pages – from the home page category overviews, individual contributions through the contact form. These pages should all be constructed according to their individual purpose.

Navigation

The navigation of a website needs to be clear. This includes the important pages to be easy to reach and not only to incur unnecessary pages. When creating the navigation should act according to the following maxim: Everyone, absolutely everyone should be able to do just that, which is why he has come to the site? For example, purchase of a product, provide a contact request, receiving information and so on.

Features

Closely linked with the navigation and the layout are the features. Here, the minimalism is very important to keep the site clean. Before installing any features, you should therefore ask themselves: Do I really need this? Visitors will use this at all. Visitors must use the? Thus, unnecessary features, such as public visitor counter will be excluded directly.

Text and Font

The Internet is hard to read. Therefore, they should be basically either short or divided by sub-headings. However, in web design is about much more fundamental: The writing must be legible! This includes consideration of font colour, font and font size. Therefore, the web designer must find a compromise between corporate design, aesthetics and readability in cooperation with the company.
