Web Design & Usability Explained

April 15th, 2009 | Usability, Website Design

When starting with a web project, web design is the first and foremost consideration. Not just for the sake of design, but because setting the design of the project in the beginning ensures usability later on. Design means locating the number of pages there will be, the site’s controls, the goals, users expectations and convenience etc. the colors, pictures and patterns are secondary and usually come afterward.

Always remember, instead of explaining or offering help on how to use certain features of your website…simply make it easy to use in the first place so the users don’t have to seek for some help. Make it easily operable and you will successfully be able to have design and usability integrated. Don’t let your users get stuck at any point while browsing your site.

Bear in mind, design is usability and usability is design—both are crucial for each other’s survival. Sacrificing any one would be totally insane. The greatest sites in the world such as amazon.com and ebay.com do not try to impress their users with flashy images and complex navigation; instead they focus on clearness and simplicity in the designs. So NEVER let creative design overcome business practicality and usability, and vice versa.
