Clear the purpose of your site
A website’s calls to action (CTAs) is key to support its goals. A site’s purpose should be as simple as promoting purchases or telling a company’s story. You should be able to capture your site’s intent in a sentence or two through mission statement. A purpose will give you a clear plan and road map for design and content creation.
There are the broad purposes of a design and there are the specifics of a marketing strategy to beat the competition like;
• How will visuals and content reinforce your brand and make it stand out?
• How can your site provide more value than your competitor?
• Actually, building a brand and building an audience is important.
Content
Content should be useful, clear, and guides your audience toward actions you want them to take. SEO should be planned for and interconnected into the content. SEO can be considerately and sophisticated implemented with a conversational tone that assimilates keywords and phrases that don’t distract from your message.
Defining your site’s purpose helps inform the content you need and adopting a content-first approach means working with real content from the beginning of the design process. Real content makes it easier to spot changes that need to be made along the way instead of drowning in adjustments and overhauls at the end. Make your site practical and through fresh and updated content that fulfill the needs of your clients.
Importance of Visuals
Every design element should reflect and communicate a brand's identity. Photos, illustrations, and other graphics balance out text and break up the web page, giving the eyes a rest from reading.
A good and appealing image makes a good first impression. Animated transitions and scroll-triggered effects keep people moving and take navigation from a mindless necessity to an interactive experience. Make sure that visuals should be high-quality and look good. Try to use clear, color-balanced photos and graphics with suitable size and resolution. Bad visuals can destroy a great design.
Balance in design elements
Every element of a layout should work together. There should be a balance in design elements to give a best overall look. A good designer knows what fonts, visuals, and types of navigation capture attention, and they have a vision for how they all fit together.
Skilled web designers are considerate about the weight of each element and they know when to use limitation. They know how to create a design that’s effortless to navigate. This sense of synchronization also extends to the brand identity. Everything from the site’s voice and tone to the color palette should be constant.
There are some other points too for a perfect design like;
• Typography
• Color use
• Visual arrangement
• Clear Navigation
• Balance in white space
Although these are not hard and fast rules as you can change the things according to your own requirements but if you keep in mind these basic rules then definitely will get great results.
