WEB DESIGNING
Everyone in this age of computers adores Web designs. The blank page on screen is created into a live picture with the help of your mind’s eye, keyboard and a mouse. Web designing is a very creative job. In short web design is a lot of fun, but it can also be a source of income.
If you choose web designing as your business then you need to be really careful in using the right process. If you don’t use the right procedure in making the design you effort may be unsuccessful.
How and why your design turns out to be a failure?
Your design may be very beautiful but
- It may not be appropriate for the type of website.
- It may not attract the viewers.
- It may be awful for its purpose.
- It may lack the qualities to create an excitement.
- It may not deliver the correct message of the site.
There are proper steps of web designing…
The basic steps to avoid making worst and awful designs are
- Sketch:
Appropriate planning is a must for a good design. In this the most important thing is to know the answers to the queries.
- Preparing matter:
This is the second step after you have a plan. It is just a rough draft. This will show how and where your content will be.
- Model:
This is an essential step of the process. This will be easy for you as you have already planned the content, instead it would be fun. It is fun also with many key considerations, so don’t get very much excited and make mistakes.
- Improvement:
As soon as you finalize the design, turn it into XHTML/CSS/PHP/MySQL and to whatever your site demands. The improvement naturally refers to the coding and backend matter.
Designing is the site where the designer’s talent shine. But still never jump to it as you may make a mistake by doing that. If you duck the planning and content building then you will not be able to attain the goals of the site.
First
In planning few questions have to be answered, like what is the goal of the site? Who are your visitors? What do you expect from the visitors? Etc. You should know the answers if you are designing the website. When you have the answers to these questions you can start your content building by deciding on color, layout, font size, font type.
Second
The phrase used mostly is that “content is king”. You should know which your target audience is and according to that you will have to frame your content and also keep in mind your goal for the site. You should make it a point that the visitor of your site must get to his destination just by max 3 times. Now when you prepare the sitemap all your contents should have their space.
Third
Do take care of not skipping any of the above steps. Let your imagination show colors here. You will have to design layouts for home page, and also for your transitional pages. Transitional pages are the pages which take the users to more significant things, so do have links to different varieties of the topic. Make sure that your transitional site’s layout tone with the entire site. It is a must that you have a rough draft of the layout to see which would go well with the topic.
Finally
Once you tie up with your design you can improve your site. Depending on the way you want your site to work could draw in complications such as PHP and MySQL programming, or can be simple like HTML and CSS. This is the step that requires the coding of the site.
Thus we see that web designing is interesting, but it can lead to failure if not done according to the steps discussed above.
