Web designer stavanger
Features of good website - in my opinion.
The new trend is aiming in UX – User Experience Designer is a new trending position for people who are dealing with the experience of Your website or application users . What does that mean ?
My work as a ” web designer stavanger ” freelancer teach me some things about design and I would like to share some of my thoughts below.
In simple words designers and developers should always consider creating a website which will be clear and easy for the client. For example even if the website is sparkling from fancy media, but client can not find there any contact information this means website is not well designed. Not only design counts.
The same thing with companies who are ordering website , very often they want to put whole product history catalog and all 1001 products feature over flooding viewer with information, they are creating exactly opposite effect , after seeing such wall of content the viewer will will most not read it. Lets be honest we try to be as efficient as possible if something requires from us too much attention with probably small result is not very efficient.
In all things i think it is important to find this optimal point.
For example when I make website. I try to think about nice good looking desing, but not forget about clients who will look at the website.
I want the clients to be amaze by the site but I want them also to find their way around and find the most important information on the website, like contact, telephone number, e-mail address, most important in for them to understand about what the website is, what is it for and how they can use it.
Then there is whole are of SEO , this white/black hat complicated and delicate setup of what Your website should contain to be on high position in google. It is very hard sometimes to put in the content keywords like mine key word for example: web designer stavanger You need to sometimes just change Your plan because You don` t want Your website look bad or give a feel that it is unprofessional.
To sum up what I`m actually saying. I believe there is not one good golden method in designing. Your design should always consider many different things, first of all what is the aim of the website. You should always try to put Yourself in the viewer position ant the thing what do You want him to think and feel when he is on Your website.
Are You aims young mothers ? Young people ? Businessmen ? Ornithologists or developers ? Every group have it own characteristic features You should address in Your website. The second thing is what do You want to do actually ? do You want to promote ? sell ? provide some usable features, gain social awareness ?
I always try not to take fro granted only how I feel about the website, do I like it . I try to think about what people like , why some other pages are so popular, what do they have what I have not. I try to ask around what different people think but I never focus only on one opinion, everyone has it`s own opinion and there is no chance the website will be suitable for everyone.
For me the hardest is just to be satisfied from the website myself. I have very critical approach to my work so it is very hard for me to like my work even if clients love it . I think it is important to be happy from Your work, I am happy from developing myself, my knowledge and skills to met more sophisticated problems, create better website and make my website do their job in the internet.
