Four superb web design tips that will make your life easier

Everybody wants to have a wonderfully designed website, and yet, it’s surprisingly tricky. So, what is it that prominent designers know that the rest of us don’t? The key to great web design is quite simple: you’ve must understand the universal rules of good design and apply them.


1. Learn the fundamental rules of type design

The key to fantastic web design is remembering that the web is just a bunch of text, a basic typography design. There are only a few basic rules that all websites should follow:

For headlines:
     Make them bold and simple to scan
     San serif typefaces are excellent for headlines because they are super firm and comfortable to read at bigger sizes.
     For body text, you should maximise legibility.
     Make the font-size much more significant than you think is needed, minimum 16px are recommended.
     Lines should never be longer than 50-60 characters long.

2. Pick a robust typeface, and maybe one with a touch of whimsy.

While picking a font-face, you should pick something elementary to read, graphic, and maybe something a little whimsical. Proxima Nova has replaced Helvetica Neue as per many top web designers. Some other good choices are Montserrat and Merriweather Sans.

3. Pick a three-colour palette & then stick to it!
While choosing a colour palette, the key is to select it and stick to it till the end. Consistency is of the paramount importance when it comes to creating a cohesive colour palette for your site. Many prefer neutral palettes which boldly use a strong accent colour. Perhaps a white background, a not-too-dark text value with a little hue in it, and a strong accent colour.

4. Make sure your photos are of the correct size
Always remember the fact that, the web is pixel based, so if your image isn’t big enough it’s going to seem pixelated. When you are looking for images on iStock or Google, make sure to get the proper size. Photo clarity adds a lot of reliability to a site, even if you didn't take them. If the image is too small, don’t use it! It might get blurred and lose the quality of overall design.
