It
is not necessary be a designer neither have an excellent good
taste for build an inviting and pretty site, for this is sufficient
follow some basic rules that I learned during long years of
experience in the internet and that now I will transmit for
those that are initiating itself in the art of build sites:
1. A site should exhibit a minimum of banners, pop-ups and
animations, these animations, specially those that need to
be closed (pop-ups) and that are acquaintances as blinks irritate
the visitor that seeks a peaceful and of good taste environment
in a site and not an interminable blink of animations that
tire the eyes and move away the visitors.
2.
It is not sufficient that an assembly of colors be pretty,
is indispensable that it offer comfort and facility of reading.
If the background is dark the text should be clear and itself
the background is clear the text should be dark. This contrast
is essential for facilitate the reading of the content of
the site and will do with that the visitor fill itself comfortable
and attracted to come back other times to your website.
3. Does not utilize strong colors in the background, as black
and red, the clearest colors are the more recommended, you
can utilize similar colors, like the brown one and the cream,
the blue one and the marine and green dark and the green clear.
These assemblies of colors do not tire the eyes of the visitors
and are inviting and pretty.
4. The home page, or main page, should be summarized to the
maximum, avoiding those extensive pages that challenge the
patience of any visitor. You will be able to present the title,
the menu and what will go really indispensable, the ideal
is that all the page can be visualized in a screen of 800x600
pixels without the scroll bars exhibition.
5. Utilizes dozens of tables for better organize the content
of your site, is sad enter in a site where the objects were
put randomly or without a centralization or logical order.
Centralizes and distribute all the content of your site, occupying
the smaller space possible and you will obtain a pretty and
of good taste result.
I don't feel like a professor, but as a colleague concerned
in transmit the accumulated knowledge. I do this with a lot
of joy, therefore is the form of thank my friends all the
patience that they had with me and all the time that they
dedicated for teach me these important basic rules. They permitted
to me build better sites, more pleasant and pretty, for my
visitors, that already add more of a million of persons in
all my sites.
