Website Design
Your website provides an insight to your organization. Within seconds customers will make a decision about your business based on your website's appearance.
The graphic design, download time, and site navigation determine what kind of first impression customers will have.
Graphic Design
Questions to ask:
Is the website appealing to your target audience?
- Is your website design in line with your organization's branding?
- Does the graphic design enhance the message your want to convey?
- Are elements on screen properly arranged to emphasize key messages?
- Is it easily readable? Are contrast, color and richness used effectively?
- Are visuals, pictures, graphics and flash animations used effectively?
- Can audios/ videos be helpful explaining your business?
Site Navigation
Questions to ask:
- How easy is it to navigate through your website?
- Is your information logically structured?
- How convenient is it to find information on your site?
- Is the site and content stuctured consistently?
Download Time
Research has shown that the average user is willing to wait up to 10 seconds for a page to load before switching to another site.
There is a fine line between balancing the need for using impressive graphics vs. the need to load the site within seconds. Even with improved bandwidth, many web users still depend on slow dial-up connections.
Web Yodel optimizes graphics, site construction and development code to minimize the website load time.
 Designing for the web means designing sympathetically with the way people actually use the web, not how we think they should.”
