Web Design is the first, but extremely important stage of a project. We can compare this to a shop window display. Potential customers only look at this display for a short period of time. If the display does not catch their eye and make them stop then it has failed in its task.
Research has shown that it takes a browser as little as 50 milliseconds to decide if they like a site or not (source: Carleton University, Ottawa). At Web Design Home we strive to make our sites stand out from the crowd.
Websites most important pages are their Home Page, as this is the first point of contact with any potential client. We try to make them stand out by meeting the following:
- Domain Name
Short and memorable name
Relevant to the business nature
Proper extension if a business is local or international
Keyword in the name (unless company name is more important)
