The Elements that make a Great Web Design Culture

The importance of a website to your company’s presence and brand appeal cannot be overstated. It would be apt to describe the website as the online face of your organization, albeit one that builds your brand name a thousand times more effectively than any advertising strategy, when done properly.

User Experience Matters

What experience the users get when they use your application determines the image that they will have of your company. This is why it is important to do something that creates an instant chord or an impact with the user, without hurting about the user’s common sense of course. This means that you’ve got to be as
responsive as possible, because only responsive design provides you with the environment that gives wings to your creativity.


Getting the Basics Right

Having a good web design is all about getting the basics right. And by basics here we mean
  • Uncluttered front-page
  • Neat layout
  • Brevity in content and
  • Clear and unobtrusive icons
Sometimes, the smaller things matter a great deal in web design. When you don't give them the attention they deserve, they can break the much valued customer-relationship which is the bedrock of your business. And concise content, neat layout and proper icons in their place, all fall under these basics that are so essential to ensuring customer ‘non-dissatisfaction’!

Is your web Design Self-Explanatory

Your site design and navigation should be intuitive. In other words, the user should not be in a dilemma as to what to choose or do. If the user automatically doesn't know where to go from point A to B, then that means your site is not structured properly.

This also holds true for content. It has to be absolutely clear as to what it implies. Make sure there are 0 question marks for the user.

Embrace White Spaces and Test as often as Possible!


White spaces are great for the eye. A neat visual experience is what you should aim at and white spaces serve this purpose like no other. When you have sufficient white space on your web page, the user is in a much better position to receive the information that is on the screen. It also reduces the cognitive load on the visitor.
