Before continuing, be reminded that the design of a website should meet its objectives (there must be a site for some reason). However, you should also take care of the design.
Start with the design aspects that define a Web Design 2.0:
Simplicity-The design is simpler and cleaner than ever.
Design Center-In their search for a sense of simplicity is the focus within the web browser window.
A few columns-A low number of columns for the layout of the content will contribute to the simplicity of the site. What is an ideal design with two columns? Not more than three.
Separate top section-Add a header with company logo and corporate message (tagline).
Simple Navigation-To base the organization of content on a consistent navigation menu (with logical categories and not more than seven elements) is always visible.
Logos Bold-Use clear and bold logos that stand out and make a first impression of the rest of the site.
Large Text Size-A user must be able to read any content and comfortable without having to force the hearing.
Introductions to the content in bold-Apply the concept of the inverted pyramid. Ie, an introduction and display the result to be reached on the content.
Colors-Again with the aim of helping the user should use colors to mark where the navigation should elapse.
Gradient-Gradient funds or some other approach to movement.
Original Icons-How to reinforce the message via text. In any case it is advisable to use icons in a unique way (which is always difficult to say an icon is universal).
Meanwhile, below are the stages in website development that you should also understand in using Web Design 2.0:
(1) Interaction Design
(2) Analysis and Programming
Programming is important aspect of web design, since programming languages are needed in doing so.
(3) Decoration of the user interface.
Design first, then set involve users in Web development always responding to the question, “How does the web work?” and not “what makes the web work?”
The design of interaction works in humans (imprecise, inaccurate, ambiguous and contradictory) while the program works with machines (accurate, precise, clear, logical and repetitive). Faced with two very different realities, there must be a professional for each stage of web development.
