Website design has become a demanding field that requires knowledge and experience. Staying on top of the latest programming and design trends has never been more important. For those of you who enjoy website design but are looking on ways to improve your skills, here are a few tips on what you can do to become a better web designer.
Keep it consistent
Make sure that your site has a consistent look/feel throughout. You do not want to confuse your users by changing the look or the navigation throughout the site. Consistency provides a better user experience. The user should not have to spend a lot of time trying to figure out the navigation, or why the look dramatically changed when they went to a different page.
Test your website
Keep in mind that not everyone uses the same browsers when they are searching the web. Test your website on multiple browsers to make sure everything is working properly and looks consistent on all browsers. Test is often to make sure there are no broken links. It can be frustrating for users if there are broken links on your site.
