The 6 Basic Principles of Great Website Design

Creating a website for your company is no small responsibility because a website is the first time new visitors get introduced to your brand, it is used to educate potential clients, and the ultimate goal is to convert those visitors into paying customers.

So what makes a good website? How can you ensure that your website engages users and drives conversions? Here are 6 basic principles of great website design:

1. Each page must have a specific purpose. Good website design always caters to the needs of the customer. Are your visitors looking for information, entertainment, or to transact with your company? Each page of your website must have a clear purpose and must exist to fulfill a specific need for your website users in the most effective way.

2. Your website must communicate clearly to your customers. People on the web want to access information quickly, so it’s crucial that the information on your website is easy to read and digest. In this regard, you may want to consider avoiding long windy sentences, and instead organizing your information using bullet points and sub headings.

3. Your images must be engaging. A picture can speak a thousand words and choosing the right images for your website can help you connect with your target audience. You may also want to consider using videos as these have been proven to be just as effective as communicating as a well-written piece of text.

4. Your website should be mobile friendly. Many customers now want to access websites from their cell phones, so it’s very important to ensure your website is mobile friendly and responsive. If it’s not, you should consider rebuilding it in a responsive layout, or you can build a dedicated mobile site.

5. It has to be easy to use. In today’s day and age, a website HAS TO be easy to use. We live in an instant gratification based society, so if a site is too hard to use, the visitor will leave and find a competitor.

6. It should use the right font, font size, and text color. Text placement, colors, font choices and sizes all play a huge roll in what makes a site easy to follow, clean, and organized. By paying attention to these small details, you’re likely to keep visitors on your site for longer.
