Helpful Tips
Just afew helpful tips for creating a website.
1. NO CLUTTERING-Don’t put information and pictures to close to one another. Makes the page look cluttered, and hard to get to when so many things are just all over the place.
2. Basic Text People-Use text which is readable, don’t go overboard in trying to find a certain text, make sure people can read what is written.
3. MENU NOT HIDING AWAY FROM THE WORLD-Make sure the Menu is always easy to find, and easy to use, Bold and with icons to help out the people that may not be able to read, or someone from another country.
4. Always use colours that contrast with one another. So when you have a certain colour for the background, make sure the writing is easily readable with that certain colour.Bad example black background and red writing, it so hard to see.
5. NOT EVERYONE IS YOUNG-Not everyone will no exactly what to do, giving hints to where something might be. And make sure the most important information is accessible from the homepage

I want my website to be for elderly people:
- Easy to navigate, doesn’t take to long to get used to.
- Can be navigated by a person who has limited computer skills.
- Once Navigating away from the home page, it’s easy to get back to it.

- Use colours that are gentle and warm, as it is for older people
- Different colour each page
- Include pictures on every page, relating to the text
- Each Topic should Stand out and easy for the person to find there way.
- Make sure all links a relevant to the topic.
- The site should have a friendly and relaxed feeling to it.
