Web Issues

In this post I will be explaining about website design issues and what kind of things make me and others click off websites that are uninteresting or hard to understand.


All websites have flaws, even the most popular websites. You can't please everyone but there are websites out there that are very bland and uninteresting that nobody uses or if they do its just for information in college or schools.


A good example of a bad website is reddit.com. This site is to dull and boring and only has txt all over it. I know that the website is for teens and mature adults but it doesn't mean it has to be dull, all the site really needs is some colour and maybe not so much writing.


I think that one of the things that makes people return to websites are pictures or videos, a good example is youtube. Youtube is a very popular website because users can access information and entertainment through videos instead of text.


Like a child people get distracted by imagery and moving objects. Blank TXT would bore the user and click off the site within seconds so keeping a site interesting with some images and a video would keep viewers active.



Above is an example of a bad site.

Too many ads can really make your website disgusting. To many flashy images can also cause viewers to leave having seizures. If you do decide to have ads on your website organize your ads to the side of the webpage to make them in a orderly fashion.

Make your websites Menu bar visible for viewers to see rather than hidden to one side or behind an ad.

Avoid having Hyperlinks all over your website. This looks ugly and un professional.
