Web page design approach

Some people cannot get their heads around the World Wide Web. Most of them regard having a website as having a brochure online. This is good no problem with this however unlike a brochure WORDS not pictures are the most crucial aspect to a new website.

Pictures slow down you website

Sure you need pictures and you need to portray your company with the best possible image and pictures play a major role in this. What we are talking about is picture OVERLOAD. A website has the capability of storing thousands even millions of pictures however how many people will have the time or inclination to view these? Pictures should tell a story and like words should be as short and to the point just enough to get the message across. Remember the more pictures you have the slower your website becomes and consequently the more aggravated your visitor becomes. Treat pictures as a means to an end no more.

How many picture on a web page is enough?

As an example we have recently had a client who said that he had 200 pictures of his travel lodge. This is after having previously given us 80 to be used in key areas on his pages. His website does not have more than twelve pages that is about 23 pictures per page! keep it down to four pictures per page.

Search engines are more important than pictures

The first objective of a new website is to be able to attract visitors pictures will not do this. The most crucial aspect is to develop a website with search engines in mind. Only when you start getting visitors analysing which pages are the most popular and then by careful selection decide whether the pictures you are using helps to motivate the visitor.

Which brings us to the point of every website that is you have to have visitors, visitors, visitors. Search engines are responsible for over 80% of your visitors neglect this at your peril!

YOUR website may be about you but only in so far as how you are able to provide a service, or sell a product that will satisfy a visitors needs and wants. Your visitor does not want to be burdened by you and photos of all your family or staff members they only care about themselves.

How do people use the Internet

People want information that is they want to read how you are able to help them! Pictures must enhance this information gathering not overload it. Search engines want to read your website (they cannot read pictures) the more a search engine can read about what you offer the greater chance you have on being ranked highly on their indexes. The more highly ranked you are the more visitors you are likely to get. Simple but it requires some thought about how you approach having a website designed.
