UK Website Design - Good Design Guide.

OK! So, what makes a good website. Is it the design, the layout, the links, the graphics, the flashy moving images, the content? Well, the answer is: a mixture of all of them.

The best websites out there are good because they are full of useful information, they help people in some way, even if it is just offering stacks of useful information. Many people who have a go at creating their websites themselves can, quite rightly, do a good job, but (there's always a "but") they sometimes do not have the knowledge relating to good website design and they can lack the know-how of how to create a successful website.

To design a successful website, you will need to know about search engine algorithms and spiders (not the eight-legged hairy kind) You will need to know about screen resolutions and optimising the website's file sizes. You would also need to know about Unix and Windows hosting, php and asp, html and Href and anchor tags, ftp software, IP addresses and Name servers. Confused? We would be surprised if you are not.

For some, a good website design is fancy images, moving graphics and intricate layouts. For others, the content is the most important thing, a good informative website full of useful information is what they are looking for.

So how do you choose which kind of website design is for you. A little bit of both maybe? but one rule always applies: Keep It Simple!

The style and design of your website is important, but the single most vital element is the content and navigation. All search engines and internet surfers love simplistic sites, with good clear navigation and clear text that is 100% relevant and, more importantly, holds a lot of relevant information.
