The Art of Web Design


Web design is a rather tall order these days. If you remember web design in the 90's, then you were probably quite good at it. The design process was simplistic, and it did not take long to build a quality website. The definition of quality back then was debatable, but it was still an amazing undertaking. Today however there are more things to think about when working on websites for tradies. For example, will you be relying on graphics? Will you use CSS? What about PHP? Will you be creating a login interface? These are all things you need to consider, but first you should ask some obvious questions.

Where Will you Host? -- Before you can work on your web design, it would be a good idea to have a host in mind. There are a number of different hosts available of course, and you should make sure the host in question supports the format you will be using. Most web hosts support all formats and plugins, but some charge more than others.

Website Flow -- One of the biggest mistakes people make in web design is that of creating a website that simply does not flow. When you make your website, you should have others test it out. While it might look good to you, it might be ridiculous for others. That is just something to think about.

Lightweight Components -- Something that many people do not consider is the weight of the website. Yes, computers are more powerful, and the internet is faster, but when you are working with web design, you still have one major goal: to make your website as small as possible. The larger your website is, the longer it will take to load, and many people will simply move on to your competitor if they find that your website takes too long to appear. It might sound a bit harsh, but we are living in a world where timing is everything.

While you could try to work on your own web design, it would likely be in your best interest to seek out a web design company that will take care of the heavy lifting for you. Even though you might have the necessary experience to create a stellar site, you will find that owning the company in question gives you a blurred perspective. The things that you might find to be acceptable may be anything but acceptable on the internet. In addition to that, where will you find the time to create a website when you are running a business? Short answer: you won't. That being said, there are plenty of web design companies out there who will not only create a website based on your needs, but also help you to find a good web host. These are technical considerations that you should really never have to touch.

Will it be expensive to hire a web design company? It could cost you quite a bit, yes, but as we said before, it is better to have a fresh perspective when you are working on creating a company. Now would definitely be a great time to start seeking out a website developer that will get you to the finish line, and give your website the functionality it really needs.
