Elements of Good Website Design (Part 3)

A Picture can tell a Thousand Words

Although you want to make your Website informative and helpful to your consumer you do not want to overwhelm them with copy. People are generally coming to your Website to find information-not read a novel. In most cases, infographics or pictures will do the job just as, if not more, effectively as copy. Interesting and creative graphics can enhance a visitor’s experience and make the website look visually appealing.

It is important to note that images, graphics and media should always be optimized for the web before being placed on a website for fast load time and visual enhancement.

Media and graphics play an important roll in creating a dynamic and interactive website, however, overdo this critical component and you can lose professional credibility instantly. Always make sure to self-edit your websites before publishing them.
