Web Design Layout
It's been shown in studies that people often find all that flash and bling to be vexing and distracting. Having 6 to eight frames on a page only causes confusion if not done properly. Keep it simple and try hard not to drive your web visitors funny.When it comes to web design, sticking with what is easy and straight-forward is mostly the best. While you may wish to Wow your readership with incredibly flashing, spinning graphics, fight the urge. It has been shown in studies that people customarily find all that flash and bling to be irritating and distracting. Having six to eight frames on a page only causes bewilderment if not done right. Make it simple and try to not drive your web visitors crazy.
The hottest layout is the 3-column model, as it works well. You'll find that many good sites have this layout with categories running down the left and updates, advertising and such like running down the right. While this may appear to be a bit dull, readers adore it because it is simple, straight-forward and simple to navigate.
Whitespace is another function of a good layout. Permitting for the reader to have space to rest their eyes is a plus for most designs. White space is as important as the layout itself.
Graphics should be used to improve the layout as elements that add to what's written on the page. It should be used as an extension of the text and should lend to further clarity about the subject. Graphics shouldn't overtake what is being conveyed ; it should only help to make the content clear.
Using Fonts
There's a standard for fonts that have worked well since prior to the World Wide Web commenced. In print design, paperspapers and mags, the combination of Serif types for headlines and San-Serif type for text has always worked well.
This doesn't carry over to the web where Sans-serif fonts are the top choice because they are more easy to read on the screen. Up until recently monitor resolution has not been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it would blur together making reading more troublesome. If you're planning on offering a print-friendly page, you need to use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for reports and Sans-serif for text ).
The second thing to keep in mind about using fonts is to restrict the number of fonts you put on one page. Keep it simplistic - 2, maybe three fonts at most. Good web design is straightforward to read. You can use some decorative type font, but it will take away from the message you are trying to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new high resolution monitors, you should stick with Sans-serif fonts where possible.
In web design, the hottest fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They are easy-to-read, Sans-serif and great for all internet site designs.
