The single critical factor to a successful website is planning. You must be able to effectively integrate the Web into the way you do business. The following tips can help you understand the components of a successful website. |
||
| 1 | Build a great Web business plan: A good business plan should focus on strategic consulting, online business planning and revenue generation, e-commerce, online brand development, and web site interface evaluations. | |
| 2 | Hone in on the right target audience: Your target audience will not only determine the contents of your website but will also help in deciding your site's look and feel. | |
| 3 | Choose site organization that appeals to your audience: Pay great attention to the information flow on your site – your navigation and menu structure. Make your site easy and intuitive for users to find their way around. Providing consistent navigation on each page keeps the user from getting lost in your site. | |
| 4 | Get the content right: Before you create the pages, take an inventory of the content you want to include. Think from a user's perspective and decide how to best organize the content for reading on the Web. The content should be organized in small chunks that can be easily read on the screen, and scanned for important information. Try to keep your pages short, and use headings and bulleted list to help your readers find important information. Also if your content does not have links, it is not web text. | |
| 5 | Managing the backend of the website: You need to define how you will organize files and folders that comprise the site. An easy-to-use file structure will facilitate maintaining and updating your website. | |
| 6 | Decide on the design and layout of the website: The design and layout of a webpage should be user friendly. Do not clutter your website with large, slow loading graphics, animations, and video clips because they slow the time taken for the page to upload. Also search engines find it difficult to index Flash dominated sites. | |
| 7 | Remember the 'three click' rule: Studies shows that users should be able to find the information they are looking for within three clicks, or by following three hyperlinks. User who cannot find information easily will lose patience and move away from your website. | |
| 8 | Provide the date at each page: Mention at the end of each page when it was last updated. This will let the users assess how current the information is. | |
| 9 | Include a site map on your website: This is especially important if you have a large site. The site map can be a graphical representation or as a list of links clustered into topics. It is also a good practice to have a site index, listing all the topics of the site in alphabetical order, with duplicate entries for alternate wordings. | |
| 10 | Search features on the website: If you have a very large site, you must provide feature and provide a link on every page. Be sure to include a link back to the home page in every page, as well as search, index, or site map, if these features are provided. | |
"Web Windows Design has refurbished our website bringing it up to date, giving it a modern and professional look in line with our remit and within the agreed time parameters. We have always been able to get hold of the team, which has worked closely with us every step of the way, and always with good grace and humour. We are very pleased with our new website. Thank you Web Windows!"

"We gave web windows design a blank canvas to work on and within two weeks had a fantastic new live site. The communication whilst the site was being built was great and my company’s thoughts and feedback were their greatest priority. The expert advice was invaluable and it is reassuring to know that they are only at the end of the phone should we require further assistance with the site in the future. Thank you!"
