Great web design is one thing that all website designers should strive to achieve.
If you are tasked with designing a website for a tiles company then you might be considering what are the main elements that contribute towards a good design.
A few key points to consider are:
- Layout
The layout of the site is crucial as this will impact on the overall usability and user experience. It may be preferable to opt for a simple and clean design that the user can easily navigate.
- Style
Think about your target market and this will help you decide on the style of the site. If you sell high-end or luxury tiles then it maybe better to create a design that transcends this. Likewise, if the site sells tiles at the cheaper end of the market, perhaps a more ‘budgety’ feel might be more appropriate. And if the site sells both then you need to create something in the middle.
- Navigation
Having good navigation on the site will allow visitors to easily access the relevant areas of the site. The menus should be logically laid out and easy to use. You may want to use a breadcrumbs system. Remember that some users will want to search by colour, brand, price or material, so be sure to allow for this. Allow users to refine their search using variable such as this.
Sound simple enough? It is! Following these simple steps should help ensure your tile website performs well.
