Web Site Tips

These are some really basic tips that a lot of people forget about when making a website. Fallow these and I’m sure you’ll have a great website.

  • Check the links through our your website when messing with coding. Make sure images load right, make sure that if a link goes to where it should go to and doesn’t give you an error page.
  • Be careful with what colours you use. Blinding green most likely isn’t the best for your website unless its in a small does.
  • Always offer your visitors a little something you have your normal content but little tutorials or goodies are a good way to keep people coming back.
  • Try your best to type and spell well. No one is perfect I make spelling mistakes all the time but don’t use “u” and “y” on your website.
  • Always make sure layouts line up properly. I know working in IE is horrible but try to get it close as possible.
  • Make sure if you have music that its not auto play many people (including myself) will close out a site if it starts to play music.
  • Use the proper tags for your site. Don’t use div’s or paragraphs to make a header use the header tag. h1, h2, etc.
  • Make the navigation as simple as possible. Don’t make it so the visitor has to hunt for your brushes or textures. More than three clicks to get to a layout, avatar, or tutorial is way to much.
  • Minimize javascript yes its good to have for a few enhancements but don’t use so many it bogs down the page.
  • Just a few tips for you to fallow.
