Many times we attempt to create a blog/website, but end up
failing because we don't know how to properly construct and maintain a decent
website.
Here are some websites and tips to help you create your own
successful website!
Have a polished, professional logo--and link it to your home page.
Use intuitive navigation
Get rid of clutter
Focus on the essential elements
Get rid of things you don’t need, those are simply distractions
Use the 80-20 rule: focus on displaying only the 20% of site elements that are delivering 80% of that usefulness.
2-3 main colors
5-8 Navigation Items
Place important information on top
Think small 10-12KB
Don’t use images that blink
Use Thumbnails
Limit the use of flash
Clean up your code
The way these sites are arranged
follow through with my research. All the important things are at the top;
navigation bar usually only includes a few items.
I wouldn’t exactly change anything,
because these website are running at their full potential. I might take out
some of the content just to make it run a bit faster.
