Complement the copy

The age of information The web has always been ruled by information and will always be. Information comes first and design is meant to complement it.

Target your site audience

Graphics art for the web should be used sensibly. Similar to the fact that the copy is first targeted towards its users, web design ideas should be targeted towards its specific audience. Unless it is a hobby site, this is the only way to ensure the success of a website. Without qualified traffic, the site makes little to no money. In other words, one should ensure that the design or animation are what its site audience expects it to be. You want them to come back again, not put them off.

Don't do it for the sake of design

No writer should write for the sake of writing, on the web. Simply give the user what he is looking for, as quickly and as accurately as possible. The same goes for site graphic designers. Designing for the sake of designing gives a false sense of fulfilment and leads to futility. Design with a purpose in mind and if the writer thinks alike, the website is heading in the right direction.
