Having six to eight frames on a page only causes puzzlement if not done correctly . Keep it simplistic and try hard not to drive your web visitors crazy.When it comes to web design, sticking with what is straightforward and straight-forward is mostly the best. While you may wish to Wow your readership with stunningly flashing, spinning graphics, fight the urge. It has been shown in studies that folk customarily find all that flash and bling to be upsetting and distracting. Having 6 to eight frames on a page only causes confusion if not done right. Make it simple and try hard not to drive your web visitors funny. The hottest layout is the 3-column model, as it works really well. You may find that many good sites have this layout with categories running down the left and updates, advertising and so on running down the right. While this will appear to be a bit uninteresting, readers adore it because it is easy, straight-forward and simple to navigate. Whitespace is another function of a good layout. Permitting for the reader to have space to rest their eyes is a plus for most designs. White space is as crucial as the layout itself. Graphics should be used to improve the layout as elements that add to what is written on the page. It should be used as an extension of the text and should lend to further clarity about the topic. Graphics should not overtake what's being conveyed ; it should only help to make the content clear. Using Fonts There's a standard for fonts that have worked well since prior to the world wide web commenced. In print design, paperspapers and magazines, the fusion of Serif types for announcements and San-Serif type for text has always worked well. This does not carry over to the web where Sans-serif fonts are the finest choice because they are more easy to read on the screen. Up until recently monitor resolution has not been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it might blur together making reading more difficult. If you're planning on offering a print-friendly page, you need to use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for announcements and Sans-serif for text ). The second thing to bear in mind about using fonts is to limit the number of fonts you put on one page. Keep it simple - 2, maybe three fonts at most. Good website design is simple and easy to read. You can use some ornamental type font, but it will take away from the message you are attempting to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new high resolution monitors, you must stick with Sans-serif fonts wherever possible. In site design, the most well liked fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They're easy to read, Sans-serif and superb for all website designs.
