The Anatomy Of An Effective Web Design [Infographic]

When creating a new website, there are a lot of things to consider before getting down to the nitty gritty stuff. There needs to be a requirements list, and a plan about how to lay it all out in order for the user (visitors) to enjoy the experience while browsing around on it. The graphics and the eye candy come in at a later stage. First of all, you need to know what kind of website you are creating otherwise you will find yourself continuously changing things in order to “correct” what you previously didn’t like because of all the rushing. However, with a proper plan, there is nothing that can really go wrong unless you’re trying to bring too much to a too small place, meaning the server and the capacity required for making the website a smooth and enjoyable experience.

The layout of the site (not including the reason you’re creating the website in the first place) is probably the one most important thing to consider in order to attract a good crowd, but the quest for a successful website doesn’t stop there. The site has to actually make people want to come back as well, and that is almost never an easy task. You have to maintain and service your blog, and take out anything that is not completely in line with what your visitors are expecting. This is all within the layout and execution of the site.
