Top 10 Elements of A Good Web Design That Performs

Thursday, February 26th, 2009


There are many articles you can find that point out mistakes of web design
and all that constructive criticism. They also provide some prescription for things to do in a Web design project such as the do’s and don’ts of design, to avoid mistakes.

However, what will be discussed here will be additional elements that can be used to increase the usability of sites such as the following:

1.    Name and logo on every page

Placing and making the logo on all pages can allow link to the home page.  This should be present except on the home page itself, where the logo should not be a link.  Remember never have a link that points right back to the current page.

2.    Search engine

You should provide search engine to guide visitors to get the information they want if your site has more than 100 pages.

3.    Easy  and simple headlines

These are the page titles that visibly clarify what the page is all about.

4.    Organize  the page

Make it easy to help users get the most comprehension on what your site is promoting.  Use grouping and subheadings to break a long list into several smaller units.

5.    Use Hypertext to structure the content space

This is a substitute about a product or topic into a single, definite page. Use it into a starting page that provides an overview and several secondary pages that each focus on a specific topic. It allows users to avoid wasting time on those subtopics that don’t concern them.

6.    Product photos

Avoid cluttered and bloated product pages with photos that only cram the page. Better ways to do them would be:

•    Use small photo on each of the individual product pages and link the photo to one or bigger ones that show as much detail as users need. This varies depending on type of product.

•    Some products need zoom or photos that can be rotated. Reserve all such advanced features for the secondary pages.

•    Primary product page must be prompt and should be limited to a thumbnail shot.

7.    Relevance-enhanced Image Reduction

After you prepare small photos and images, replace it for the purpose of simply resizing the original image to a tiny and unreadable thumbnail. Zoom in on the most relevant detail and use a combination of cropping and resizing.

8.    Utilize link titles

Users can have a preview of each link so that they will know where it will take them.

9.    Accessible pages

Ensure that all important pages are accessible and not lead to error pages.

10.    Test your design with real users

Check with your website people if they do things in odd and unexpected ways, so even the most carefully planned project will learn from usability testing.

Wines: Gifting With Style

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

Wine is considered legendary because it has been a part of ancient history. Since man populated the planet, wine-drinking has also been existent. Wine was used in festivals and celebrations, consumed by the wealthy and common people of the old world.  Until now, people celebrate with wine, in birthdays, engagement parties, corporate celebrations and casual dinners.

Wine has become an important part of life’s merriments. Companies are also getting into the trend of wine gifting. Several kinds of wine gifts and other accessories can be used as corporate give-aways . Especially if the customer is a wine aficionado, giving wine as business gifts can be a way of enhancing business relationship.

Australia is among the 5 largest wine-producing countries in the world. Australian wines make good promotional wines. Wines by Design is a company that can have personalised labels. Companies can benefit from giving fine wines or gourmet gifts that can go with wine gifts. It speaks of style and elegance, with a personalised touch. People have many love affairs with wine. It is one beverage that always has fond admirers.

What are the benefits of drinking wine? Drinking wine at moderate amounts can be beneficial. It is made from grapes, which are rich in phytochemicals. Wine aids in raising the good cholesterol of the body, which is called HDL, and can help in thinning the blood, allowing proper blood circulation. This drink can also prevent degenerative memory loss such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s .

Giving wine is not a modern concept, though. People have traded goods with wine before, or even gave them as precious gifts to friends and kingdoms. The idea of corporate wine gifts stands with history then. Today, several variations were made on how these gifts are presented. They come in baskets, boxes, hampers, and in many other containers. Bottles have become stylish with various colors. Indeed, wine gifting has a beautiful story to tell, and in the modern setting, it tells of beautiful relationships and fruitful business partnerships.

Weight Loss & Diet thru Hyponisis

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

Weight Loss & Diet thru Hyponisis is nothing new in the Far East, but it’s certainly a new approach to weight loss in western countries.  Most people can’t or won’t lose weight because they refuse to change their lifestyle, yet they continue to pursue in their quest for rapid weight loss by diet-hopping, as they hope to hop onto a magical no effort eating plan which sees the weight just drop off. Losing weight by Hypnosis is one of the latest fads, and the chronic dieters hope that the claims by this alternative form of treatment to speed up their metabolic rate, are going to allow then to eat what they want, when they want, and let their body’s own natural mechanisms deal with the fats and oils which they wolf down their gullets. Of course, this is hardly the case, otherwise there would be no other diet plans to consider. Exercise and healthy eating is, as it has always been, the only sure fire way to get slender and stay slim!

Who wants to Lose Weight?

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009

Who wants to Lose Weight before Christmas?  Practically no one! I mean, all those mince pies, cookies, fresh cream cakes, and tins of candy being offered around the clock. It’s not likely that you’ll see too many folks passing by all these goodies with, “Sorry, I won’t thanks. I’m on a diet!”  No, Xmas is not a time for dieting, it’s a time for feasting. January the 2nd is usually when most of us start looking for the next best and fastest diet plan to shed all those excess pounds we so willingly piled on over the festive holidays. Eating, like most other things done in overindulgence, has long term health implications that do not make for good reading, but knowledge about the dangers of continued overeating or even binge eating, is not enough to stop most of us who have a kind of addiction to food!
