It is very important to have a website in this age of technology but the ultimate thing is how good that website is for its user. We always have a clear scenario about the websites we visit. Some of them we love so much that we come back several times a week, and others leave us with a bad experience that causes us to never return. So how can you say about your website design? What to say about its function? Is it working with good speed? and many more. There should be some measures to check whether your website is good or Bad?
1. Contents on webpage: There should be a well-defined purpose behind building a website. Websites with great imaginations and visions are always well manner websites. They have a clear vision behind their content. Cognizant personalities from different fields can do this task efficiently. Sometimes images and content are completely different from each other. There is no outcome of such websites. In the case of bloggers, the product description should be clear. Readers could get some out of the website's details. All above this, unique and informative content also decreases the bounce-off rate of the website.
2.Mobile-friendliness : Nowadays mobile phones are quite popular compared to desktop. Usually, we prefer mobile phones over computers to view websites. Many of us prefer applications for online shopping, booking cab, etc., but to download the app for everything is not feasible. So, we use the website for the same.
There is too much difficulty to use a website on mobile phones which are not optimized for mobile. User needs to scroll down to view and read the content of the website. Moreover to zoom out and zoom in is also a handy task for general people. Thus, while developing a website, make sure that it is optimized with mobile devices. Next, search engines like goggle have declared that it will give rank higher to mobile-friendly websites.
3.Design : If a website looks poorly designed, users may not come again to visit the site again. To my belief, designing is a very important part of website building. Some times we do have clear content but without proper presentation, people would dislike our website. Design is the heart of any website. It should be attractive and interactive. The color of the website and the layout of the site is also very important. Do not use an excessive amount of advertisements and popups.
4. Images and videos: With the help of multimedia, users can get an understanding of its content. So using accurate and precise multimedia is very essential to the health of the website. Irrelative multimedia may lead to bad consequences. Images and videos need to be informative in case of a good website. If you add videos in sites, do not add autoplay functionality. You may give it as an optional parameter. So user does not get disturbed while using your product.
5. Loading Time: The average load time for mobile sites is 19 seconds over 3G connections. Slow loading sites frustrate users and negatively impact publishers. One study found that 53% of mobile site visits are abandoned if pages take longer than 3 seconds to load Pagespeed Insight is a tool developed by Google for checking the same. Make sure you compress the multimedia used in a website. Apart from that check how much it will take to load on moderate internet speed. This will create a good impact on a user's mind.
