On top of? the project, knowing the pitfalls and understand? language. In this article, discuss the elements that should appear and should not appear on its pages. Note: Please understand that I express my opinion, with opinions that are taking place in web development and / or the design community. Ultimately, is your site and you have the right to make your way to want.Elements that must appear on each page:     Navigation tools that make sense. What does it mean? Meaning? Have you ever visited a site where the keys are icons that are not what they represent (even if you move). Or maybe it opens a page with Flash no idea on the site or how to enter. If the visitor has an enormous amount of time and an unusual sequence, he or she investigate in May, but most visitors leave with a quick click.   Navigation bar that are easy to find and follow. There are several ways to navigate web sites, but there are places for navigation bars that most visitors see your site first. The most obvious is at the top and bottom on the left side of the page. Use of bearings and / or fly (popup) menu, you can provide links to many pages. Note: When planning the navigation, we must devise ways to reduce the number of clicks, the visitor must do to get to the point where he or she wants to go (three are considered as the maximum).   Details. Even if you have a page called in May? Contact us I believe that having your name, address, telephone number and e-mail on all pages, it is easy for visitors to contact us.

The moment when we were all just started to surf the Inteet, we have fun with animation and other graphics that cutesy characters danced and moved. They were something new. Today, they can be a major distraction and the sentence. If you add something that moves, don t continue to do so forever in motion. E 'as the flashing neon outside your motel room sign - boring.   Pop-ups and pop-unders. I don? T even have to explain them.   Counters. Before there were effective programs to monitor your website? S statistics, these counters were used to record the visitors. The problem is they are not (you can start counting the 20,000 if you wish) and are considered as a real sign of being a dilettante designer.Chris King is a professional website creator / designer, storyteller, writer, free agent, and fitness instructor.
