Site Design Layout
It's been shown in studies that people generally find all that flash and bling to be annoying and distracting. Having six to 8 frames on a page only causes confusion if not done right. Keep it simple and try to not drive your web visitors funny.When it comes to site design, sticking with what is easy and straight-forward is mostly the best. While you may need to Wow your readership with stunningly flashing, spinning graphics, fight the urge. It has been shown in studies that people sometimes find all that flash and glitz to be upsetting and distracting. Having six to 8 frames on a page only causes bafflement if not done correctly . Keep it simplistic and try not to drive your web visitors crazy.
The most popular layout is the 3-column model, because it works really well. You will find that many good web sites have this layout with classes running down the left and updates, advertising and the like running down the right. While this will appear to be a bit dull, readers adore it because it is easy, straight-forward and easy to navigate.
Whitespace is another function of a good layout. Allowing for the reader to have space to rest their eyes is a bonus 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 is written on the page. It should be used as an extension of the text and should lend to further lucidity about the subject. Graphics shouldn't 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 combination of Serif types for announcements 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 just recently monitor resolution has not been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it might blur together making reading more troublesome. If you are planning on offering a print-friendly page, you must use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for headlines 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. Make it simple - 2, maybe three fonts at most. Good site design is straightforward to read. You may use some decorative type font, but it will play down the message you are trying to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new high-spec monitors, you should stick with Sans-serif fonts wherever possible.
In website design, the most popular fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They're easily read, Sans-serif and excellent for all website designs.
