A list of do’s and don’ts to keep in mind for web development

Designing and developing a website is a task that needs immense amount of planning and strategizing before the final execution. If not done rightly, it will greatly impact the performance of your business. So, here are some quick guidance and a list of do’s and don’ts for web development company to follow when making a website.  
Clean layout-
Don’ts -The attention span of consumers visiting your website is too short and if the website seems to be cluttered and confusing, you are sure to lose their attention quickly. So, as much as possible create a clean website layout and ensure it isn’t cluttered with too many images, texts and other elements. Infusing too many elements makes the website visually unattractive and confusing. On the contrary a well-organized website creates a good impression and increases the possibility of client conversion.
 Do’s – Create a focal point on the website that guides the visitors appropriately to your product offerings and services. As a web developer, build your website in a way that visitors can easily navigate through and drive them to purchasing. The easier and less complicated you keep your website the better it is for your visitors.
Website functionality-
Don'ts- Do not ever miss out on optimizing your website. The website designed should be responsive and work on all electronic devices. Having a responsive website automatically enhances the user experience and makes browsing and shopping much easier for visitors.  So, as a web developer always invest in a responsive web design to ensure you do not end up losing customers.
Do’s- Always test the functionality of your website. Having a website that looks good isn’t the only requirement. It is equally important to ensure that the website is functional and easy to use. Ensure elements like product search, service details, store locators, payment options, and such relevant information easily searchable. Leveraging on opportunities like these will ensure you no loss of customers in the process.
Web design –
Don'ts- While many web design companies may not agree with me. But according to a number of experts, simplicity is the new beauty. So, this simply suggests not over do things when it comes to designing a website. Its best to keep it simple and elegant rather than complicate it and confuse visitors. Keep the design elements clean yet interesting to allure potential clients.
 Do’s- Keeping the design simple doesn’t really mean going the conventional way. Be creative with design ideas and experiment with images, videos, fonts and colours to spruce up the website and make it standout.  The main objective is to attract visitors and increase the chances of conversion.


Prototype
Don’ts- Successful web developers know it already, before me spilling the secret bean. Do not forget to create a prototype once you are done designing it. You need to make sure everything that you have designed should function well on its execution.  Or else the very purpose of developing the website is defeated. Ensure you build a prototype to test its functionality and evaluate the overall performance before the final execution. This is the key to building a successful web design. 
Do’s – Create a customized website and ensure that it is flexible and scalable in nature.  Technologies become obsolete in no time. So, ensure that the website is designed to adapt to evolution and accommodate future changes. Having such features in your website will help your business evolve over the years with the changing trends.
