Web Design
Your website design
should be different from other web sites only because your goals and
needs are likely to be different. "Good" website
design is based on many elements such as:
Each of the above aspects
must each tie together with the purpose and goals of your
website. What works for an upscale car dealer in Los Angeles
will not work for an Interior Design Firm in Chicago and that will
not work for a Technology company in Austin.
Depending on your web
site needs you will also find that there are many options from a
basic presence to E-Commerce to multi-lingual, multi-faceted,
database driven sites. Each with its own level of complexity
and cost.
As a starter, many people
may opt for a website template. There are many high quality
templates that can be purchased for under $100 that will help you
get your web site started. Those templates provide a
professional layout, but do not provide for logo design, SEO, SEM,
SEP or any of the other services you will likely need.
Similarly, for many E-Commerce needs, a more straightforward method
of starting is use of a template. Because of the complexities
involved in E-Commerce, you will find good templates ranging from
$100 to $300 [and sometimes more]. Again, this cost is just
for the template and no extra design work, customization, SEO, SEM,
database loading or other elements of a successful E-Commerce
launch.
A good web site designer
will match the needs and experience of the end user, your customer,
to the requirements of the of successful search engine listings
[SEO] and within the confines of the coding language(s) [e.g., HTML]
available. Web design on the Internet is at least one part
science and one part art.
