While you may need to Wow your readership with incredibly flashing, spinning graphics, resist the urge. It has been shown in studies that folk sometimes find all that flash and bling to be irritating and distracting. Having six to eight frames on a page only causes bafflement if not done right. Keep it simplistic and try to not drive your web visitors funny. The most popular layout is the 3-column model, as it works well. You'll find that many good sites have this layout with classes running down the left and updates, advertising and such like running down the right. While this may appear to be a bit boring, readers like it because it is straightforward, straight-forward and straightforward to navigate. Whitespace is another function of a good layout. Allowing for the reader to have space to rest their eyes is a plus for most designs. White space is as crucial as the layout itself. Graphics should be used to enhance the layout as elements that add to what is written on the page. It should be used as an extension of the text and should lend to further clarity about the subject. Graphics should not overtake what is being conveyed ; it should only help to make the content clear. Using Fonts There is a standard for fonts that have worked well since prior to the internet started. In print design, paperspapers and magazines, the mix 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 finest choice because they are less difficult to read on the screen. Up until recently monitor resolution hasn't been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it would blur together making reading more difficult. If you're planning on offering a print-friendly page, you must use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for announcements and Sans-serif for text ). The second thing to bear in mind about using fonts is to limit the number of fonts you put on one page. Keep it simplistic - 2, maybe three fonts at most. Good web design is simple to read. You can use some decorative type font, but it'll take away from the message you are trying to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new high resolution monitors, you need to stick with Sans-serif fonts wherever possible. In web design, the hottest fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They are easy-to-read, Sans-serif and excellent for all website designs. ![]()
