I. Page Size

In Photo Editing software, the size of the page should be 779 x 434 pixels.

There are three commonly used monitor resolutions 640 x 480, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768. In web designing, designers generally prefer 800 x 600 resolution.

Why 779 x 434 pixels ?

In professional web designing, scroll bars should not be visible on the home page specially horizontal scroll bar. Home page should fit the screen.

In a browser the upper area is occupied by the default buttons, address bar & bottom area is occupied by Windows task bar, hence the actual area which web designers get to display the Home page is 779 x 434 pixels.

Be very careful in choosing colors.

for, e.g. green color cannot be used for a blood bank site & red color for garden - related products.

Before designing a website, it is recommended to study and understand the client's product & services.

For most of corporate web sites, white color background looks great. If the client's company has defined guidelines of corporate colors, then it is always advisable to use their corporate color.

III. Main products & services should be reflected on the home page :

A visitor who visits your client's web site to get information related to your client's product & services must see it at first instance on the Home Page.

Otherwise, the visitor will probably press stop & back button and leave the site which would be a great loss for your client. REMEMBER .. Home page is the client's first impression on the mind of the visitors.

If it generates interest, the visitor will stick around and surf further and if not, he will move out without getting any information.

In case the client deals in a large number of products and services then it may not always be possible to display them on the Home page. In such situation, a collage of the products and services can be displayed on the homepage. The individual photos can be displayed on the respective inside pages.

With the help of different layouting techniques, a designer can display the product very well. It is possible to display a wide variety of products in an attractive, systematic and well -charted outway.
