Successful Parts Of A Web Page
Whenever you are building a website, there are certain parts of a webpage that will give you the most effective result.
A recent study was conducted that analysed over 500 people’s eye movements whenever the person would view a web site. What they did was they presented a typical two column website that contained content and a few pictures. As a result of 500 tests and infrared anaylsis, they found that people’s eye movements usually go from left to right and then scan downwards.
People usually scan a web page … not read the entire web page in one go.
So what can do you to take advantage of this? It’s important to place all of your most important assets near the top of the web page and a few going down. So take for example, the goal of your website is for them to contact you. You can place a small contact banner or form near the top of every web page, by doing this, people are highly guaranteed to click on your contact form.
Think about your most favourite website? How do they place their content? Is it full of content with no pictures? or do they sprinkle the content and make it easy for you to read? You will find that most News websites, they have good positioning of their news, pictures and content.
People these days are very busy and don’t have time to digest alot of information. Always keep this in mind when presenting your site to the audience.
