The following tips will help you in making sure that your website design stands out in the competition.
Highlighting the Fundamentals
- Before you start to make your website look better, make sure you have all the fundamentals in pace. Get the layout & other basic design works done properly. Now you need to “polish” them, but how are you going to do that?
- You need to ensure that fundamental design helps a user with what they want. He/she should not feel that there a disconnect between the design and the content on the website.
A check on Alignment and Spacing
- Alignment and spacing play a major role in website design. These two elements are going to tell your users, how much serious you are regarding your work.
- The text, whether on the home page or inner pages, which contains text and graphics, should be aligned properly.
- The spacing should be proper between the words, ie. neither too much nor too less. It should be appropriate.
Applying Anti-Aliasing to the Text
- Anti-Aliasing is a technique, which is used to remove or minimize the distortion artifacts. Experiment with different fonts & sizes & choose one that works best for you. Sharp, Crisp, Smooth etc. looks great depending on the design being used.
Adding 1 Pixel Stroke
- Borders & lines should be 1 pixel stroked. This would give crispness to your website. This is often ignored in many websites.
- It also gives more depth to the design of the website as the text would gain attention on its own.
Add Gradient Effects
- Gradients are now seen on almost any website. The subtle variation in gradient can produce wonderful results if done right.
- They make the design come alive in web designs, unlike in print designs, where they are mostly flat.
Adding Drop Shadows
- Adding the subtle drop shadows are also important in website design. This makes sure that various elements “pop out” at a user making it a good choice.
- Each of the pictures, text and borders should be distinguishable & drop shadow would help you in achieving this.
