  1. Their are many factors to take into consideration when created your own personal webpage, or a huge website system such as gaming communitys equiped with systems to upload your custom content.

     

    All these hints are intended for HTML based websites.

     

    Background

    One thing to think about is adding some kind of background detail. Whether is be a simple background color, a simple background image. In fact i encourage you to keep it simple to reduce loading times, and to keep from drawing to much attention away from what the site is really intended to do. One thing that i beleive bothers everyone is when their are sites with neon colors everywhere. Please dont use neon colors background, unless you can balance it out and make it look good.

     

    Banners and other images

    Keep the file sizes at a low, but make sure they have something in them. Its great to have images, but having empty images makes your site look empty. Even if its just a logo, or your name and the site URL, try and add something.

     

    Text and linking

    When your adding alot of content on your site, its always a good idea to make sure the site of everthing is of a decent size, so its easily readable. Nobody likes HUGE text, but their are a few exceptions. An important thing to always keep in mind is that you always want to have the text, and or link against a background where the text and or link will be easily readable, and viewable. Do not put a yellow text color on a white background.

     

    Page Layout and Access

    One thing you may want to keep in mind, is that when creating your site you want it to look appealing to the eye, but keep the people interested in what the site is really about. Try and make the site as easily accessible from other pages of the site as possible. For example, have a link to the home page on most, or all of the pages throughout the web page. Its always good to have a little uniqueness to the site, and having a way for people to give feedback. Some of the ways for this would to be add a geustbook, forum, or an email link.
