By now everyone needs to accept the fact that the sun never sets in the virtual world of the internet. This is logical because some or the other person is accessing the web design even when the personnel of the business identity are asleep. On the other hand there is another saying make hay till the sun shines'. Now it is the responsibility of the web design to convert the visitor into a buyer. Optimizing the utility of any website is neither very easy nor very difficult.
Why custom web design?
Some of the prominent reasons for web design development to be customized are as follows:
Difference:
The services or products offered by the websites are usually never the same. Moreover the targeted audience also differs. Instead of aping the competitor's website it is better to analyze them, then think what extra can be offered to the prospective buyer and finally get a unique custom web design.
Buyer:
The days of seller's market have expired; now it is the buyer's market. The buyer should be prompted to think that the website is addressing to his/her needs and not just interested in getting rid of the products or selling the services. The buyer should feel that website owner cares for his/her preferences and is interactive. This is the way the buyer will be convinced to buy the offerings on the website. This dream can come true only through a custom web design.
Technology:
The target audience differs from industry to industry and from seller to seller. For some of the industries the visual content is of prime importance while for some other industries the text content matters the most. To optimize the utility of the website, the web design should be search engine friendly as well as user friendly. Appropriate technology should be used to embed the visual content on to the website so that the downloading speed is least affected.
Navigation:
The visitor should be comfortable at navigating through the website and find what he/she is searching for in the least number of clicks. This is crucial for maintaining the high level of enthusiasm of the visitor. In case of confusing navigation the visitor may get irritated and just log out of the website never to return.
While deciding to avail the services of a professional, adept, experienced custom web design company one should have some knowledge about the 3 main layers of web design.
The content layer or the structure layer is the first layer that is created with the help of XHTML and HTML codes. The presentation layer is the second layer and concerns the appearance of the website to the visitor. The behavioral layer is the third and refers to the meaning of the website, interactive nature and the ability to convert the visitor into a buyer.
An expert custom web design company can develop not only the website but also the business to generate optimum revenues and satisfy the customers or clients.
