1. Flashy Pages: unwanted Distractions
Most of Harare web designers feel the need to create stylish splash pages that do nothing but create a barrier which stops web users in their tracks and forces them to make the unnecessary decision of whether to push forward to the home page or to leave your website forever. These "website introductions" are typically short Flash-based movies that showcase the web designers flash design skill set yet offer the web user nothing but a distraction. Flash animations are so common these days that its almost impossible to actually impress a web user with a Flashy page. The main goal of any website design should be to either deliver the web user what they want or to get the web user to perform an action. a flashy page only slows down this process and should be avoided at all time.
2. Banner Advertisements: Less Is More
When it comes to the strategic placement of banner advertising the old proverb "less is more" needs to be applied to Harare web design. A single successful banner advertisement is more profitable and valuable then a whole bunch of banner advertisements that get minimal click-through. The harder it is to secure a single banner advertisement space the more appealing it becomes to advertisers. its best to try and fill space with useful content. Another tip is to surround your banner advertisements with as much useful content as possible; this will also make the space more appealing to potential advertisers.
3. Navigation: Is The Important Key
The fastest Bike in the world is useless if no-one knows to drive it. The same goes for websites. Website owners can choose to invest thousands in web design logo design flash design splash pages funky animations and a whole host of other aesthetic goodies to make the site look fantastic but if web users cannot navigate around the site to consume the content or purchase products then the whole website fails to achieve its goals. In web design when it comes to designing effective navigation its best to keep it as simple as possible. Once again web designers will often go overboard and design navigation menus that include flash animations multi-tiered dropdowns and a whole host of other unnecessary additions that only work to distract the user instead of helping them navigate around the website. Navigation is the key that unlocks good website design
