Web site design is much more than just how a web page looks.

Do you (and more importantly, your designer) know that:

• You have 30 seconds or less for your site to load and convince a visitor to browse your site or do business with you.
• Less than 10% of those using the internet will scroll past the first screen of a site's front page.
• Where you place certain links and how they are worded affects whether they are clicked or not.
• The majority of viewers will not go beyond a Flash intro page.
• Links and menus are expected to look and work a certain way and visitors will not try unusual navigation.
• Certain words in your text or descriptions can get your site blocked by child protection software.
• Many web sites never reach their full potential because they are too difficult for visitors to use.

The best designed and functional site in the world is no good unless people know where to find it and want to use it. To accomplish this there are certain things that need to be built into the design of the site itself such as:

• The site title and page titles
• Specific META tags and proper content
• Links, alt tags and the text on each page worded to increase search engine results.
• Specific elements in the design that must foster trust in the site.
• Design appropriate to the targeted audience the site wants to attract.
• Spellings and word use specific to that audience or a general global audience.
• Simplicity of use in the layout, presentation of information and navigation.
