Tips for a web designer

Designing a company website can be a challenge. You will constantly have to balance between what the customer wants and what you know will work as sometimes opinions differ.

Below are a few tips that should help you improve your skills as a website designer.

  • Design in grey scale – When producing visuals you should first design them in grey and then add in photography in colour. Then you can go through and colour each element. This will avoid over designing and allow you to make the most important parts stand out.
  • Don’t make the social media stand out too much – So many websites spend time and money making sure that they are offering their customers a great experience and yet promote their social media pages prominently basically encouraging people to leave. If people like your site they will want to stay on and have a look round not see what information you have put on social media sites.
