Why Have a Website |
|
Are you wondering if your business or organization needs a web site? If so, here are some reasons why a web presence is important!
Establishing a web presence - Sooner or later your customers are going to expect you to have a web site. It is becoming more and more prevalent today that a business is legitimized by a web presence. Millions of people use the Internet every day and the number of web sites is currently estimated at well over 2.1 billion. In 1999 the estimate was eight million, which shows the explosive growth and need for web sites. As more people gain access to the Web, commercial interest in using the Web to conduct business will increase and the variety of non-business uses will be even greater.
Advertising and promotion - The World Wide Web has access to over 30 million people daily. To reach 10 million customers a web browser takes less than 18 months compared to 40 years using a telephone. With this said it shows how important web pages can be to businesses that acquire one. Web pages can also be updated in a short time and use of the web is virtually free. With over 2 billion web sites on the Web today with it more than doubling each year the explosive growth of the Internet and web pages is undeniable, which creates a sizable market potential for businesses.
Reducing costs - Printing costs for advertising materials are high and advertising materials become outdated quickly. Revisions and re-printing cause costs to increase tremendously! Web sites offer the opportunity to provide your customers with up-to-date information when they need it, and allow you the freedom to change your products, services and information quickly and efficiently.
Free Advertising - One of the features of having your own web site is the ability to link to other web sites, and more importantly, have them link to yours. This allows customers to find your web site through other channels, which increases the potential for traffic to your site.
Easy to find - Thanks to search engines, someone looking for the products, services, or information you offer can find you in a matter of seconds, no matter where they are. With a well-designed web site and a few good marketing techniques, you can broaden your customer base to anyone with Internet access.
Improve Customer Service - You may operate your company under “normal business hours,” but your web site stays open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, anywhere in the world. Question and answer pages or "FAQ" pages can provide your customers with immediate help. Customer service is a great way to increase customer rapport and confidence, which can lead to more business and referrals. |
What Makes a Good Website
Usability is one of the most important aspects of Web design. What’s the point of having a beautiful looking dynamic web site if it takes a long time to download or is difficult to navigate? Users want to find the information they are looking for quickly. If they don't find it quickly, they will look elsewhere.
The user ultimately holds the power on the Internet. They go where they want to go and at any time. This means that the only way to be successful as a Web designer is by designing for the users. Make the sites easy to use and focus on supplying the exact information and services the users want.
Usability is a combination of many different factors all of
which affect the user’s experience. Some of these factors include:
-
Navigation - Navigation is the most important aspect of a Website. It helps users find their way around.
-
Page structure - Put the most important information at the top. Pages should not scroll horizontally.
-
Writing content -Time is of the essence to most people using the Internet, so users don't want to read reams of text on-line. It is also harder to read from a computer screen than it is from paper.
-
Simplicity – This is the key. If the site is easy to use users will stay there.
-
Accessibility - The key to the power of the Internet is its accessibility to everyone, regardless of browser, platform, operating system, plug-in or disability.
-
Consistency – Keep fonts, colors links and style consistent.
-
Graphics - Use sparingly because they will add to download time.
-
New technology - Avoid using technology that has been around less than two years and avoid creating a site where users have to download software to view it.
-
Frames - Avoid using frames because they can be hard to maintain, destroy URL locations for users and make it hard for search engines to spider.
