What mistakes should be avoided in web design

I think everyone knows Web Design Importance in website construction. Bad web design will bring bad experience to users, which will affect the flow of web pages or the sales of products. So what problems should be avoided in the process of web design? Let's understand together!

　　 First, bad search engines

Search engines cannot handle manual errors, negative numbers, connectors, or other variations of query terms, so a search engine that overemphasizes the need for accurate words will greatly reduce its usability. This search engine is unfriendly to everyone, especially older users. In addition to focusing on input requests, it is more important to determine the priority of search results based on multiple search terms than on the importance of each document. It would be even better if your search engine could display the "best match" item in the first item of the search results. Especially for some important searches, such as product names. When information cannot be found, search efficiency is the lifeline of users. Although advanced search is sometimes sponsored, most of the time, simple search can meet the demand. Search should be an abbreviation input box, which is what users want.

　　 Second, non intelligent links

A good reading history can support you to understand your current position, because that is the starting point of your reading. Knowing the addresses you visited in the past and now will help you decide which address to visit next. Links are a major factor in the reading process. Through the color of these links, users can stop accessing useless addresses. On the contrary, they may also want to access useful addresses they have visited before.

Most importantly, they know that they have read those pages, so that they can avoid accidentally visiting the same page again. However, there is only one case where these benefits can be obtained: when designing a web page, the links that have been visited and those that have not been visited are set in different colors, and users should be able to distinguish between those that have been visited and those that have not. In the usability test, if the color of the visited link does not change, the user will express confusion and always casually repeat reading the same page.

　　 Third, avoid mixed visual advertising

Selective attention is very useful. Users of websites have learned how to avoid paying attention to any advertisement that may hinder their purpose. Similarly, users will ignore reasonable design elements that look like advertisements. After all, when you start to ignore something, you don't seriously discuss what it is. Therefore, it is best to avoid mixed visual advertising design in the early stage of web design. This policy will change with the emergence of the new advertising situation. At present, the following rules can be observed:

　　1。 Ignore banner: due to the state and shape of the page where the banner is located, users will not pay attention to anything that looks like banner advertisements.

　　2。 Avoid applying animation: users will ignore flashing or jumping text or animations that are too harmful to users' vision.

　　3。 Purify the bullet box: the user will close the pop-up window even before reading the contents of the bullet box, sometimes closing the window in disgust

　　 Iv. inflexible fonts

Unfortunately, CSS styles give websites the right to stop readers from "changing font size" and apply fixed size fonts to web pages. In more than 95% of cases, this fixed font size is very small, greatly reducing the browsing ability of most users over 40 years old. Respect users' preferences and let them adjust font size as needed. In addition, the font size should be defined by the relative value, and the size should not be defined by the absolute value of pixels.

The quality of the website has a direct impact on the company's external image and reputation. Do not go online for the purpose of going online. Before going online, we should repeatedly understand customer needs, do a good job in web design, and avoid unnecessary misunderstanding and adverse effects.
