So far you have registered your Domain Name
and selected a suitable Web Hosting. Now, you are going to take one of the most
important steps; Building your Web Site or Designing.
Why?
Because how your website looks like is the first thing that a
visitor notices. Then if you have something useful to offer, it will be more
interesting and attractive. Besides your web site should not be troublesome and
difficult. A visitor must have a nice feeling about it. Then you will have a
successful website and the amount of your website visitors ( which is very vital
) will grow day by day. That´s why it is too essential to have an eye-catching
and useful Web Site. How?
Basically, there are 3 main parts which
should be considerable, when you are building your website:
1) The Layout
2) The Content
3) The Functionality
1) The Layout
Everything which is connected to the shape
and form of your website. As a matter of fact, it is a very first step to catch
a visitor, invite him/her to keep looking around and encourage him/her to stay
longer or come back. So, try to design a good layout, if you are serious about
this issue. What is a Good
Layout for a Website?
First of all, make sure to create some basic parts in your web page. For example
a part for the Title of the website or the Logo, a part for the Navigation Bar,
a part for the Content and so on.
Then, try to put all the parts in a reasonable and acceptable
order. It helps the visitor find everythng simply and quickly. So, your site
will be easy to navigate. For example, it is not a good idea to place the Title
or the Navigation Bar at the bottom of the page!!!
Also, do not forget to keep that order in all
of the pages. Your next step
in web site design
is to add some eye-catching material such as a good Title or a nice Logo, some
graphics and images, tables, submission forms, frames and special effects. But do not overload it.
Nobody likes a website full of images, banners and graphics. Not only it will be
harder to navigate, but also it will take more time to load the page.
Also, be careful not to add music or sound to
the web page. Most of visitors dislike that. Even if you intend to do so, make
it optional for them stop/pause the embeded Audio.
Sometimes, it is recommended not to use frames on the
website. Frames make it more difficult, even impossible for search engine robots
crawl the content of your website. As you know, it is very important that you
have some visitors finding your site through search engines.
Another useful tips is the proper combination
of the colors. Do not try to choose every color. It is better to select a few
colors which combine each other softly and do not make it unpleasant.
Finally, everything in the Layout should fit
the purpose of website. For instance, if a site is about sport, selecting a logo
or an image regarding music will not be a good idea or if you intend to run an
informative website, do not use too much images and graphics.
2) The Content
The next important step is to have a good
Content. Believe it or not, even if the Layout is not so attractive, you still
have something else to make the visitors happy; the Content. In fact, a large
percent of the websites on the net are informative. They are giving the visitors
the needed and helpful information. Even a commercial website presents its
products or services by a small introduction. It is called the content and gives
more power to a website.
What is a Good Content?
1) It should be related to the topic of the
website.
2) The level of the audience must be
determined and the content should be written according to that level.
3) It must be useful and helpful.
4) It should be written correctly and
fluently.
5) It must not be complicated or boring.
and so on.
Everyone likes a good content, even the
search engine robots. Preparing a page full of words ( Keyword ) without any
useful content is worthless. Try to write some paragraphs of your own words and
do not copy. There are some resources which help you provide good articles.
To know a few other tips, read the
following points:
Choosing suitable fonts like Arial or Times
New Roman is also a good idea. Put the related and important Keywords in your
Headlines and make them Big and Bold. Try to select a good title with a large
font size. It will help the search engines find your site more easily. Besides
it makes the text fine.
3) The
Functionality
The more functional you site is, the higher
quality it has. In other words, your website should work properly if you want to
get visitors and make them return. But in order to have a working and functional
website, you have to increase its quality which does not only depend on the
Layout or the Content, but also on some other aspects such as:
1) How fast your site uploads.
2) How easy the navigation in your site is.
3) Whether it has annoying objects like
Pop-ups, Pop-unders, embedded sounds or not.
and so on.
As I said before, once you register with a
web hosting provider and select your domain name, you will be able to publish
your already-built site on the web. There are a lot of programs which help you
design your website. Probably, you want to find a cheap web page site design and
hosting. Also, you can buy a ready-to-use template or decide to create it
on your own with a powerful software like Frontpage. Besides you will need some
additional features such as Logo, Newsletter Form and so on.
