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
