19 May 2009Everyone sees beauty from their very own perspective. When creating a quality web design however, you must make certain that you are able to satisfy your customers perception of what beauty is as well.
A website designer has the distinctive job of creating websites from the customers perspective and at the same time using the industry’s standards. A website creator has to be able to counsel their clients to avoid creating an irritating design.
Today I am going to share with you my top five most irritating website designs of all time. Your list may be longer, but this is my top five.
Pop Up Windows:
Many people say that pop ups have actually increase their sales, but I cant imagine how when everyone I know hates them. Pop ups are especially annoying when you are in a hurry.
Loud Flash Presentations:
Loud flash introductions is a feature that I really do not like to use, they can be a great tool for capturing your visitors attention, and at the same time be very irritating with the loud music. This is especially true for the flash intros that do not give the option of skipping the presentation.
Light Colored Fonts With A Light Background:
Using a light text color with a light background is really hard to read. A customer should not have to work their eyes too hard to read your content.
Fonts That Are Too Big:
Fonts that are too large may work well for the creator of the website, but for most of us, it looks sort of like a preschool book.
Too Much Clutter:
Good content on a website is encouraged by many as well as the search engines. The problem with having too much content is when it is unorganized. A good way to solve this issue is by using drop down menus with multiple pages.
What one person may find to be a well designed website, someone else may find to be not so wonderful. The way to avoid creating a web design that is acceptable by most is to keep everything in moderation.
