Create a wire frame

Make it a non-negotiable step to create a wire frame or blueprint prior to the visual design. This gives you an overall view of your website. The wire-frame is a skeleton of your website.
Doing this will ensure that your website will not be an “over-designed” one and will help you to create a neat and clean layout.

Create Prototypes

Use prototyping as part of various stages of Design Thinking. You can use prototyping as an ideation method, as it allows you, as well as users, to explore alternative solutions. This is possible because prototypes are physical representations of your solutions, and thus prototyping allows you to think by doing. Adopting a ‘thinking by doing’ mindset is extremely helpful in letting you derive more value from researching, defining, ideating, and testing

Add Web fonts

Web fonts are trending, The correct place to start your search for a web font would be Google Fonts. Get a suitable web font and define usage in your corporate style guide and use it consistently online.

Placement of Social Media

When you place social media icons in the header which definitely is a prominent position, you are giving the visitors an option to leave from your website.

Bury the icons in the footer, somewhere not so easily visible.

When someone visits the website, he should stay, learn and perhaps inquire about the services you provide, not just browse through the picture gallery. Social media should be used to get people to your website, not the other way round.

Simplify navigation

The more options you give to visitors, the more they are overwhelmed. Keep the number of links on every page to minimal and let there be curiosity.

Notes: Avoid use of drop-down menus and specially multi-tier drop-down navigation. These navigation are not very user friendly, only skilled mouse users navigate effectively through them. Take the navigation a step further and reduce the number of links in the header of your website.

Use flat colors

Color scheme of a web site, is the engaging factor for a visitor. Too bright or too sober colors tend to discourage visitors. Perfection is the key here, which definitely is not an easy task.  

When stuck, refer to mother nature. The color palette of nature is huge that you are bound to find the perfect shade. Select from your own clicked pictures or take it from the web, use color picker to pick the exact shade and start creating.

Ditch the slideshow/carousel

Slideshow/image carousel when introduced, was a way to give lots of information on the first page of the website. However, not all visitors stay on the first page long enough to browse and experience all of it. 

Idea is to promote that one thing that solves the purpose of visitor, Why is he visiting your website? Target the bull, put images only about what the company does, ditch the rest!

Use paper

The first step towards a great design is great planning. Getting your ideas down on paper will help you iterate through a design, polish it and modify it as you go along. When designing with the team use Chart or whiteboard, this will enable others to give inputs and the design process will be more synergetic.

Also editing is easy with paper, all you needs an eraser. This makes the editing quick and in turn results to immediate visualization of the suggested change. Now that you have a detailed project, snap a photo on your mobile phone for reference.

Websites of the company is what defines it, make it creative and unique. The more time a visitor spends on your website, more are the viewers chances see your Websites.
